Here, you’ll find the steps (and stumbles) of designing Sunday Cottage Escape, with inspiration, updates, and little glimpses into the heart behind it all.
I’m sharing my real-time journey of creating Sunday Cottage Escape, so one day, you can escape here too. 🌸

If you’ve ever stayed at a hotel and left feeling exactly the same as when you arrived—maybe a little rested, a little lighter in your wallet, but not really changed—you already understand the difference between lodging and retreat. Hotels are designed to give you a place to stay. A room, a keycard, amenities that look nice in brochures, and a check-out time. But Sunday Cottage Escape was never created to simply provide a place to stay. It was created to provide a place to feel.

When you walk into a hotel, you check in under a number. You go through the motions—baggage cart, elevator, identical doorways. You close the door behind you and you’re in a space built for efficiency. But when you arrive at Sunday Cottage Escape, you are welcomed into a peaceful experience from the moment you enter the property. You’re not processed. You’re greeted. You’re seen.
Hotels are built for occupancy. Our cottages are built for belonging. Every cottage is its own sanctuary—carefully designed so that when you walk in, you can exhale and feel instantly at ease. These cottages don’t just hold you for the night—they wrap around you like a deep breath you’ve needed for far too long.
Yes, hotels offer amenities, but they are standard and predictable. A pool, a gym, a breakfast area. At Sunday Cottage Escape, everything is crafted with intention—from the garden pathways that encourage peaceful strolling, to the lavender fields that sway in the breeze, to the soft lighting and thoughtful details that remind you what it’s like to truly be present. This is a place where hummingbirds become part of your morning and stillness becomes part of your healing.

Hotels help you rest. Our retreat helps you renew. There is a difference. One serves your basic needs. The other speaks to your soul.
When you leave a hotel, you check out and go on with your life. When you leave Sunday Cottage Escape, you carry something with you—peace, clarity, and a softer pace that stays in your heart long after you’ve returned to daily life.
Hotels are for travelers. Sunday Cottage Escape is for those seeking peace.
And that is the difference.
Be the first to see new updates, dreamy ideas, sketches, photos, and behind-the-scenes magic as this peaceful getaway takes shape.
You’ll get cozy updates (not spammy stuff), and one day, you’ll be the first to know when booking opens. 🌸
