When you imagine a beach vacation, you might not think of the East Coast, but the Hamptons are home to some of the most beautiful, quaint, and luxurious experiences. These seaside havens are especially inviting in the summertime—but keep in mind that lodging fills up fast. You’ll need to decide soon, so here are some of the best hotels the Hamptons offers.

A Room at the Beach

Located in Bridgehampton, this 10-room boutique motel focuses on what it calls “unfussy luxury.” A Room at the Beach has a comfortable, down-to-earth feel that invites you into its unique spaces. Just two miles from the beach and a mile from Wölffer Vineyards, this hotel has plenty to do—including a Saturday morning yoga class.

The Reform Club

The Reform Club is a unique inn featuring seven suites, wood-burning fireplaces, hardwood floors, and marble bathrooms. A stay here is all about convenience and comfort, with Duxiana beds for the perfect sleeping experience and concierge service that offers everything from grocery deliveries to personal pick-ups.

Art House Bed & Breakfast

A truly unique property, the Art House is a spacious retreat with only two rooms—the Master Guest Room and the Master Spa Suite. While it may be challenging to stay at this location, your stay will be impressive. The Art House includes a labyrinth sculpture garden, a 66-foot outdoor pool, an “endless” indoor pool, a gym, and a game room. What’s more, guests can expect breakfast every morning.

Topping Rose House

Another Bridgehampton location, the Topping Rose House is an inviting space known for its quiet elegance. In addition to its rooms and suites, the house features a farm-to-table restaurant, opportunities for soothing massage treatments, and a historic barn available for private events.

Gurney’s Montauk Resort & Seawater Spa

Gurney’s is an especially notable Hamptons hotel featuring 158 oceanfront rooms, suites, and cottages with access to a 2,000-foot private beach. It’s the only resort in the Hamptons to offer on-beach dining, though it also has indoor options. 

Gurney’s is also recognized for its Seawater Spa, which offers indoor and outdoor treatment rooms, steam rooms, four bathing pools, a saltwater indoor pool, and relaxation areas.

The Roundtree, Amagansett

It’s not on the water, but The Roundtree, Amagansett, isn’t too far. With 14 rooms and a notable pet-friendly attitude, this retreat is a cozy vacation place. The hotel offers bike rentals and buggies to the beach, even providing essentials like chairs, towels, and umbrellas for a perfect day in the sand.

Montauk Yacht Club

If you want to head out on the water, the Montauk Yacht Club is your ideal destination. It’s a 107-room resort and marina on Montauk’s Star Island, perfect for days on the waterfront and at sea. 

Of course, there’s also The Ocean Club Montauk, a seafood restaurant and bar that guests always enjoy.
