Tuckers Point Club Hotel & Spa is a hotel that also houses villas, golf community, and beach club. It is located in the subtropical environment of Harrington Sound, Bermuda. The hotel was purchased by Juan Tripp, the owner of Pan Am Airlines, in the 1930s. Since people tended to take more trans-Atlantic flights, Tripp’s planes would leave New York and refuel in Bermuda, allowing his passengers to stay at his hotel before they fly to London.

This 15.5-acre facility offers numerous caves and a 90-foot-deep chine. Over the past 10 years and after more than 5 years of construction, the site is considered as the most opulent and expensive construction in Bermuda estimated cost of $800,000 per key.

Therefore, to control costs and reuse materials, the owners chose to demolish most of the old structure but ensure to maintain the building’s original steel girders and an outdoor elevator. These efforts were able to save the cost as much as three million dollars.
