LEVEL BY LEVEL



Level 1 — Ground Floor:

Six bedrooms, a full entertainment wing including a dedicated game room with professional pool table and board games, a home theatre room for movie nights and presentations, a wet bar, and a poolside cabana. Direct access to the heated pool, hot tub, and outdoor areas.( Heated pool Open April 26–October 10; heating supplied in July/August (safety-limited), with optional heating at $750/week when weather permits (including July enhancements and off-season).



Level 2 — Main Living Level:

An broad great room with vaulted ceilings and expansive ocean vistas, a gourmet chef's kitchen equipped with dual commercial-grade fridges and freezers, two gas ranges, dual dishwashers, and granite countertops.

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS



The Hemingway features 14 bedrooms and 15 full bathrooms distributed across all three levels. Bed configurations include king beds, queen beds, and twin-over-double bunk beds. Multiple ensuite and shared bathrooms provide ample space and privacy for all 32 guests.



ENTERTAINMENT & RECREATION



The Hemingway delivers resort-level entertainment throughout. The ground floor entertainment wing features a dedicated game room with professional pool table and board games, a home theatre room for movie nights and presentations, a wet bar, and a poolside cabana. Multiple intelligent TVs with streaming are positioned throughout the residence. The expansive outdoor areas are complemented by a premium gas grille for oceanside dining. Starlink satellite internet delivers speeds up to 400+ Mbps throughout the property — ideal for remote work, streaming, video conferencing, and keeping enormous groups connected.



EXCEPTIONAL VALUE FOR LARGE GROUPS



The Hemingway delivers striking value for groups of 20–32 guests. During peak season, the per-person cost at The Hemingway is significantly less than splitting your group across two or three smaller units — while offering resort-level amenities, professional management, and the privacy of your own oceanfront estate.



Compare: Two 8-bedroom units at $15,000–$19,000 each = $30,000–$38,000/week for fewer bedrooms, fewer bathrooms, split logistics, and no shared gathering space. The Hemingway keeps everybody under one roof with 14 bedrooms, 15 bathrooms, and dedicated event-ready spaces — often at a lower total cost.



EVENTS & CELEBRATIONS



The Hemingway is purpose-constructed for life's most significant moments. From destination weddings and corporate retreats to graduation weekends and milestone anniversaries, events are welcomed and entirely supported.



Wedding Reservations: From rental starts $17,000 for a 3-nighttime weekend stay.

THE 24-HOUR CLEAN GUARANTEE

The Hemingway is professionally cleaned and inspected before every arrival. If anything falls short of that standard, tell us within 24 hours of check-in and we will have it corrected within 24 hours of your report. If we do not, your cleaning fee is refunded in full. Refunds under this guarantee apply only where we fail to re-clean within that window.



SAND, WALKWAYS, DECKS & POOL AREA

Outdoor walkways, stairs, decks and pool surrounds are cleaned and sand is removed periodically, subject to weather, safe access and coastal restrictions. Wind, tides and storms may bring sand back shortly after cleaning; daily removal and continuously sand-complimentary surfaces are not supplied. Please contact us if buildup obstructs access.

Wear secure, slip-resistant footwear on outdoor walkways, stairs, wooden decks and around the pool; avoid walking barefoot. Walk carefully, use handrails and do not run on wet or sandy surfaces. Rinse sand from feet, footwear, swimwear and beach equipment at the designated outdoor rinse area, where supplied, before entering the home, pool or hot tub. Remove sandy footwear indoors; do not wash or sweep sand into pools, hot tubs or indoor drains.

No glass near the pool or hot tub. Do not drag or rearrange furnishings, place indoor furnishings outdoors, or move pool equipment. Keep paths clear, supervise kids and keep pool gates closed. Do not climb railings, bypass barriers, remove caution tape or enter closed areas. Use only access routes designated for your reservation.

Report loose boards, exposed fasteners, broken glass, damaged gates or other hazards immediately and stop using the affected area until management confirms it can be used. Share these rules with all guests and visitors. Documented guest-caused damage or extraordinary cleaning may be charged under the rental agreement; ordinary windblown sand and normal wear are not guest-caused damage.
