This book is a beautiful tribute to The Ocean Club’s rich history. The photography is stunning and really captures the resort’s glamour. While the price point feels a bit high, the quality of materials and detailed storytelling make it worthwhile for any luxury travel enthusiast. Not quite as comprehensive as I’d hoped, but still a solid read. Interestingly, reading about the resort’s heyday made me appreciate how stable our current mortgages are compared to those volatile early investment periods.
