For An Ultra-Luxe Hamptons Escape, Stay at Montauk Yacht Club

You probably don’t know this, but the most luxurious stay in the Hamptons isn’t your ordinary hotel. Rather, it’s the historic 16-acre resort set upon a marina on Star Island in Montauk, also known as Montauk Yacht Club. With superyachts and serene water as its backyard, the property boasts 106 coastal-chic guest rooms, alongside 1928 bungalows and cottages for larger groups.
But Montauk Yacht Club is more than just a luxury resort. With the debut of ALBA Spiaggia, its floating wellness cabana in partnership with ELEMIS, and its launch of The Courts, Montauk Yacht Club is primed to be the premier Hamptons destination for cuisine, serenity, and activity. It’s romantic for couples, activity-abundant for families—oh, and it’s pet-friendly, so no one gets left out. Here’s how to have the most deluxe stay.
First, arrive in a Blacklane car. It’s the best way to avoid the hassle of the tiny Hampton’s airport, or the arduous traffic you’ll be stuck driving in. Just sit back and relax in the comfort of your premium black car—oh, and they are really great about accommodating your pup.

When you arrive at the property, immediately book a hydrating and lifting facial at The Cabana Spa by ELEMIS. Treatment rooms are in a yacht docked behind the property, and the British skincare brand provides treatments that protect, restore, and renew skin. The floating oasis proves to be one of the most unique spa experiences you could imagine.
Then, dine at ALBA Spiaggia, the East End extension of ALBA’s popular New York City and Los Angeles hot spots. Entirely authentic, you might find a waiter from Puglia scooping fresh tuna tartare onto your dish. Or you might spot Prince, the owner’s poodle, strolling through the restaurant, while you feast on shrimp trapanese pesto or chicken alla diavola. The Italian coastal menu paired with the waterfront backdrop will transport you to the Amalfi coast.

And finally, don’t forget to step onto The Courts for some healthy competition. Launching this summer, The Courts sports two padel courts, two pickleball courts, and a green clay tennis court, with Wilson outfitting the courts. There will be an invitational padel tournament weekend, US Open viewing series, round robins, and kids’ clinics. And if you’re local to Montauk, you can even get a season or monthly pass to utilize The Courts as your personal country club.
During the rest of your time at Montauk Yacht Club, take a complimentary pilates or yoga class at The Studio, have a drink at its waterfront bar, lounge at the outdoor or indoor pools, and simply soak in the best that Montauk has to offer.
