the house

last year’s house was pretty spectacular. there were just a few things i thought i might be able to improve upon (let’s face it, adults aren’t into bunk beds 😉). So, i spent a day on the island a few months ago visiting the largest and most luxurious beachfront homes and when i stepped into this one, i knew it was the one for us. while I was touring, it was at the very final stages of a full renovation. the atmosphere is so calming and the view is unreal. we will spend our 5 nights together nestled into this fully updated oceanfront home with no bunk beds & no rooms with more than two guests. my vision for this retreat is to curate an inclusive community vibe with room for all of our exceptional personalities. whether you are energized by solitude or companionship, you’ll find it’s place here.

there’s something about shared spaces in a home that allows relationships to form and flourish, but with 7000 square feet inside, you will just as easily find a private nook anytime you’d like. there are two sizable living spaces with enough cozy seating for each guest. the bonus room upstairs is the perfect classroom space as it’s got it’s own bathroom, and a mini kitchen set-up including a mini fridge, counter space, cabinets and a large sink. plus, if you’re opting out of a workshop you’ll still be able to sit & knit in the downstairs living space. the spacious kitchen features multiple tables with enough seating for all of us at meal time along with plenty of bar-top seating. although you will not be doing anything more than eating in the gorgeous kitchen, just looking at it is relaxing; the design is so clean and timeless. although the home boasts sleeping arrangements for 28, each of my guests will have their own bed, which is the reason why the number of retreat slots are so limited; should you wish to share a bed with a friend in one of the single rooms, reach out to me after registration for pricing. each bedroom has a private bathroom that can only be accessed from inside the bedroom.

on the exterior, you’ll love having multiple deck levels in both the front of the home and facing the ocean. there’s lots of seating for you to knit while watching for those dolphins. this home features two balconies with multiple deck levels and whether or not your room has direct access, there are several public spaces in the house to get to the balconies. the front balcony faces the street as it wraps around the front of house and the oceanfront balcony faces the pool & ocean from the back. the pool has plenty of chairs for all as well, and the beach is literally just a few steps away. You’ll step right onto the sand from our private, very short walkway. If you attended stitch & beach last year—we are about 2/3 closer to the sand this year.
