The Louis XVI Room

We were honored to have been given a tour of the Chanler by a young woman name Lauren who was exceedingly gracious. It’s because of her that I want to go back. I want my vacation to be wrapped around professional, gracious and fast service. And she was the epitome of that…

I really can’t go anywhere without a sneak peek into the kitchen. This was a great chef’s kitchen but you know what? With the exception of the cooks and servers, I like mine better.

But I can’t say that about the rest of the house…

This my dears is the Louis XVI room. He may not have slept here, but he would have wanted to.

Because this bed would have been more comfortable than anything he would have known at the time. It’s fit for a king.

He would have followed Neighbor Beth outside to his veranda…

…where he would have woken to this beautiful view of the Naragansette Bay. I had to say that name many times in my head before I got it right.

When he came back in the room to get ready to bathe, he would have admired his antiques and beautiful linens and textures…

And he would have found Neighbors Beth and Susan admiring his bathroom.

I’m sure he wouldn’t have minded at all.

One last, closer look at the antiques…

…and then it’s time to get whisked away to the soiree in his horse and carriage, or in this case, a Mercedes SUV.

They’ll pick you up at the airport by the way.
