The New York Times - A better way to wake up

If, like us, you’ve already watched Leave the World Behind, Sam Esmail’s new Netflix cyber-apocalypse movie, you may have noticed that it takes place in probably the best-designed vacation rental ever. The oceanfront property is luxurious, and not just in an it-would-be-nice-to-wait-out-the-apocalypse-here kind of way.

‌

We couldn’t help but notice that the place is chock-full of Wirecutter recommendations, from luxe bath towels to reliable coffee makers.
