Courtly retreat

Hello!

Please, help me figure out the following:

This recession is killing us. We're cutting anything non-essential.
And I have a lot of tough choices to make to buy courtly (rich? aristocratic?) retreat (mansion?) in Saint Croix.

Am I right in my suggestions?

Thank you, guys! Emotion: smile
