"Vanity? Hardly. More a choice between anonymity and relationship."
I have absolutely no clue what that is supposed to mean.
The Cloister is still there and it has a lovely website. The site opens on a picture of a young couple sitting on the beach, watching their toddler run off into the ocean. The images alternate between the present and the late 1920's. I have to say it is a handsome looking place.
From the 1996 ad you would have no idea that it is a handsome place. It looks like a swamp with a golf course going through it. I can't imagine who this ad would appeal to beyond the retired banker who is looking for someplace to take the girl from the secretarial pool who is starting on the track to be promoted to trophy wife. So anonymity and relationship simultaneously, to be honest.
I think I much prefer the image they have for themselves now.
One night at the Cloister, 2006 - $875.00 ("Rates and availability change often." Price does not include taxes, service charges and tips for the maid and butler. Yes, you get a butler.)
