“What strikes me most is the commitment to a distinctly Victorian aesthetic that transcends the typical hotel experience. I appreciate that they prioritize the details-exclusive beach essentials and personalized service, which create a sense of seamless luxury; the customized culinary offerings, with made-to-order breakfasts, further this boutique hotel charm. It's a place that seems designed for unhurried escapes, blending historical elegance with modern comfort.”
