Poolside Hideaway • Heated Pool All Year • Ideal for Groups (Sleeps 6+)

Summary:

Welcome to the Poolside Hideaway Suite, a cozy two bedroom coastal retreat centered around a unique year round heated pool with a geodesic dome. Guests have access to shared outdoor areas and the year-round heated pool with geodesic dome. In summer, the dome opens into a bright, airy space filled with natural light. In winter, it is fully enclosed and heated, creating a warm and inviting place to relax.

Set within a renovated 1930s heritage home, the suite offers a private, self contained stay with soft coastal styling and thoughtful, lived in comfort. Guests enjoy exclusive access to the pool area, creating a calm and resort style experience just steps from your door.

Designed for comfort, privacy, and ease, the suite is perfect for families, friends, or small groups looking for a peaceful getaway with a memorable, one of a kind feature. Located just a short drive from downtown, you can easily enjoy the best of the city while returning to a quiet and relaxing retreat.

⚠️ A gentle note: As a character-rich heritage home, ceiling heights are approximately 6 feet, and you may occasionally hear natural hardwood floor creaks from above—part of the charm of a well-loved coastal home.

We look forward to hosting you at the Poolside Hideaway, where coastal calm, warmth, and comfort come together for a memorable stay.
