1: I found this book very helpful
I am planning a trip to Bermuda and never having been there before I found this book very helpful. I know where to go for the activities and when to go for the events I wish to see. I see one reviewer gave a bad rating to this book because a couple of places listed in the book closed. Be aware that when these travel guides are written by the time they are published it is often up to a year later. Of course, some things will change in that time. That's no reason to trash the entire book. After reading the book I feel I will know my way around the island and what it has to offer.

2: Mistakes, Mistakes, Mistakes do not buy!!!
We recently purchased this guidebook 2008 edition for an October 2007 trip to Bermuda. The first & biggest mistake-Wyndham Resort Spa & Fantasea dive center no longer exists! The hotel has been closed (according to a police officer) for at least 1 year.I dont understand how an entire resort can close, in one of the most popular areas, yet Frommer's does not KNOW THIS?!?! unacceptable! Especially if they claim the books are updated every year, clearly this is not possible. Second,MR Onion is closed, a'very popular' local place no longer exists. Third, Tuscany, the best italian eatery in Bermuda where all the locals go...also no longer exists. I even checked the online website in November (after our vacation) and found the same incorrect information listed that should be corrected. Bermuda is a small island & it is disappointing to learn that even with an island the size of Bermuda they can't get it right. Shame on them!
