About Journey East Hampton
Montauk may be where most of the action is in today’s Long Island boutique-hotel scene, but we get the feeling that suits Journey East Hampton just fine. This is a hotel that’s less about chasing the next nightlife hot spot and more about providing an elegant escape for a clientele that’s more interested in a proper, private getaway — one that’s as cozy as it is stylish, and one where the experience is tailored to the guest, thanks to some thoughtfully personalized service. Journey’s small scale certainly helps. With just 22 rooms, it’s not the sort of place where you can get lost in the shuffle. The smallest room is large enough to contain a king bed, while the suites and cottages are an upgrade in both size and comfort. All are contemporary in aspect, though designed in a style that pays homage to classic Hamptons aesthetics, from the navy-and-neutrals color scheme to the touchable organic materials. And all offer easy access to Journey’s social spaces. The saltwater pool is a charmer, and the lobby lounge serves drinks in front of the fireplace, while the great lawn features outdoor yoga, bocce, and similar low-key diversions. It’s a fine blend: high-end but not ostentatious, full of character but never precious — the Hamptons could use more hotels like this. Smaller hotels like Journey East Hampton fill up quickly. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, contact us and we can help.
