This was like having a designer apartment in the middle of the city. We day dreamed of being bazillionaires and purchasing it. It was so elegant and well-stocked, such a restful retreat no matter where you sat. We stayed in one evening, had cocktails on the back deck then Italian at the dinner table and we felt quite cosmopolitan. It was amazingly quiet. The TV is HUGE and great for movies. Can't wait to book it on our return!
