"An ocean‑facing cottage lulled us into languor here: from a canopied bed we watched the Atlantic shimmer, wrapped ourselves in periwinkle‑and‑blush robes, and barely strayed beyond rattan loungers to admire a rose‑tinted beach beyond bay cedar and sea grape. Built in the late 1960s by Brett King (an actor said to have dated Elizabeth Taylor) and his wife, Sharon, the property has been thoughtfully overhauled by new owners, leaning into island palette and texture—painted grass cloth, straw‑fringed lamps, shell‑and‑nautilus details, coral‑tinted tubs, and turquoise‑tiled showers—that somehow feels exuberant yet right. The air‑conditioning is glacial, the vibe unhurried; between hits on the striking bubble‑gum‑and‑azure tennis courts, conch fritters at the nearby Beach Bar, and visits from glossy black chickens hopping onto our deck, we happily did almost nothing at all." - Adam Sachs
