1. Bermuda is boring and quiet, but some people look for boring and quiet when they vacation.
2. The people there really do have the tourist thing figured out and are extremely friendly. Example: We were there after being married about 20 years, and in the middle of one dinner, the maitre d' walked up to our table and said, "I hope you two are enjoying your honeymoon stay with us. I can always tell when a couple is on their honeymoon."
3. Somewhat related to #2 but undoubtedly far more controversial: I think a lot of people like Bermuda because of the atmosphere of friendly, nonthreatening black people, as opposed to, say, people in Jamaica. Not a troll or anything, just an observation from talking to people who visit Bermuda often. (And, yes, I understand there are people who like Bermuda for nonracial reasons).
