"A painstaking $146 million reconstruction of a Victorian seaside icon, this bluff-top hotel restores original architectural flourishes (including its many windows) and fills rooms and suites with early New England artwork and luxury linens. Overlooking Block Island Sound, the property offers yachting, golf, fishing, surfing, and a signature leisure pursuit of impeccably manicured six-wicket croquet on a lawn where complimentary lessons include traditional attire guidelines." - Nicholas DeRenzo
