As serene as the blue, blue ocean that is framed by its windows. As stylish as its fashion industry owners. The perfect summer retreat in the Turkish resort town of Bodrum, the Y House by Istanbul-based architectural firm Ofist.

I’m still running away from a horrid day. You’ll find me in Tecolutla, Veracruz, Mexico at Hotel Azúcar. I’ll save you a hammock.

Dear Santa,

I know it still 111 days until Christmas but you might need the extra time to work on my present. You see I’ve fallen quite hard for this Sag Harbor Boat House by Kevin O’Sullivan and Associates. Don’t bother wrapping it or popping it in my stocking. Perhaps you could just give me a lift in your sleigh to Sag Harbor to my new boat house instead? Oh and maybe leave me a boat at the end of the jetty… and bring all my blog friends for lunch? Thanks Santa. I promise I’ve been good… most of the time.

There is nothing like a really large house beautifully decorated right on the beach to get your heart pumping. This beach pad by Brown Design Group is everything you could want – tranquil earthy colours and a casual vibe that is perfect for the surroundings. Bonus to-die-for view. (In case you missed my features of their work last week – here and here)

The view is to die for and the house is simply beautiful. I like my beach house to be relaxed and laid back but still with a certain sophistication. (Listen to me! As if I have a beach house!) Stylish, chic, private and elegant but not too precious that you can’t see kids in swim suits and towels over chairs. I’d move in here in a heart beat. Warm sun, the sound of crashing waves and that view. Amaroo at Whale Beach north of Sydney is available for holidays via Contemporary Hotels.
