总体感觉还行,靠海的富豪别墅。楼下有很漂亮的宴会厅,楼上是装饰精美的卧室,还有长长的走廊,装饰着以前主人的画像。别墅的后面是一望无际的大海,绿色的草坪,白色的大理石围栏,很美。

We visited here a number of years ago - and really enjoyed touring all the mansions - Newport is a lovely place - you can readily walk around and enjoy lovely ocean views, outstanding places to dine, and amazing mansion castles by the sea!!

Attended a gala in this mansion. There was nothing NOT to like about it! Each room was beautifully decorated and there was plenty of room for the guest to mingle at the party.

We started at Rosecliff and were glad we did because I think it would have been a let down after The Elms and The Breakers. It's very pretty, and worth a visit, especially with the costume exhibit that was there in November -- I'm not sure it that is a normal display for them or not.

Rosecliff is a delightful building. It was created for Theresa Fair Oelrichs by the architect Sanford White at the opening of the 20th century. While it was inspired by the Petit Trianon at the Palace of Versailles in France, the mansion is not overwhelmingly grand. Rather, it has a feeling of delicateness and lightness.Theresa was one of the great Newport hostess and she wanted a house where she could entertain on a grand scale. Therefore, the central feature of Rosecliff is its ballroom, which connects the two wings of the house. You may have seen it in a number of films including the Robert Redford version of the Great Gatsby and Amistad. It was built with a series of large French doors so as to allow natural light as well as access to the grounds.The impression the house gives of Theresa is a positive one. She commissioned this house for the purpose of entertaining rather than to climb the social ladder. While it is impressive, it is so because of its architectural restraint. It is not a heavy-handed attempt at shock and awe.Most of the living quarters are on the second floor. These are not grand or elaborate but rather comfortable looking. These have been left much the way they were when the last private owners, Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Monroe, lived here in the mid-20th century.Rosecliff is well-worth seeing. It would be better to see The Breakers, the Marble House and Rough Point first as they tell are the basic to undertanding the Newport story. However, Rosecliff adds depth to the experience of visiting the Newport mansions.

So, a Gilded Age mansion with a 40's spin. Weird, but cool! Be sure to see it! Probably won't be as impressed as you were with the Breakers or Marble House, but worth the time.

As with the other mansions, a look at what American aristocrats created in their efforts to mimic European royalty, even though they did not match the Europeans. But then again, the European monarchs were even more brutally exploitive of the masses than were the American capitains of industry.

Just visited Rosecliff mansion in Newport, RI and this property was well worth the money. The audio tour is very interesting and informative. A beautiful property and well worth the visit.

Loved the story behind this house! "Tessie" a Nevada silver heiress, real name was Theresa Fair Oelrichs, had her architect model Rosecliff after the Grand Trianon at Versailles. You can still rent this mansion for private events! Make sure to punch in the numbers for "Dinner for Two" in the large dining room. There have been scenes from several movies have been shot at Rosecliff, including The Great Gatsby, True Lies, Amistad and 27 Dresses. Like the other mansions on the tour Rosecliff is stunning. Interesting to note-these families were only here for the summers and simply entertained their way through the season.

Commissioned by Nevada silver heiress Theresa Fair Oelrichs in 1899, architect Stanford White modeled Rosecliff after the Grand Trianon, the garden retreat of French kings at Versailles. After the house was completed in 1902, at a reported cost of $2.5 million, Mrs. Oelrichs hosted fabulous entertainments here, including a fairy tale dinneTheresa met Hermann Oelrichs playing tennis at the Newport Casino. They were married in 1890. A year later, they purchased the property known as Rosecliff from the estate of historian and diplomat George Bancroft. An amateur horticulturist, it was Bancroft who developed the American Beauty Rose. The Oelrichs later bought additional property along Bellevue Avenue and commissioned Stanford White to replace the original house with the mansion that became the setting for many of Newport's most lavish parties and a party featuring famed magician Harry Houdini.

This was our favorite house. The owner sounded like someone who would be a lot of fun to know. She designed the house and incorporated a lot of thoughtful extras. The ballroom and bedrooms are beautiful.

Wow, a lady who went east from the west to hobnob with the rich and famous ! she came from silver wealth. Her goal was to wow the pants off everyone who atttended her galas, and I guess she did !

The exterior is exquisite, especially the view from the front with the garden, but the interior is not overstuffed with furniture, compared to other mansions like The Breakers or Marble House. That's because the original furnishings were sold off in 1941 and, the house was left vacant for years before the Monroe's bought it.

We really liked this mansion as it was not as ostentatious as the others. Elegant, light and beautiful. A must do if you love to see how they lived in Victorian style.
