Why you’ll love it:  Since opening in 1926, Gurney’s has evolved from Maude Gurney’s original inn into a beloved coastal destination known for its sweeping ocean views, elevated hospitality, and commitment to innovation. It’s the Hamptons’ only luxury year-round resort set directly on the beach.

Beachfront accommodations: The resort offers 158 rooms, suites, and beachfront cottages, each designed to maximize its unparalleled oceanfront setting.

Spa life and the La Prairie pop-up: Seawater Spa is a 30,000-square-foot wellness destination centered around its signature seawater-fed indoor pool. 

The La Prairie Summer Pop-Up returns to Gurney’s Montauk Resort & Seawater Spa from June 15 through September 11, 2026, offering an exclusive ocean-view wellness experience rooted in the brand’s signature blend of Swiss science and luxury. Guests can indulge in two high-performance facials designed to lift, firm, and illuminate the skin, alongside newly introduced body treatments.

Dolce & Gabbana Beach Club takes over: The resort’s private Beach Club will host an exclusive takeover by Dolce & Gabbana. Guests can relax in designer-adorned loungers, umbrellas, and cabanas, all set against panoramic ocean views. The experience extends to an on-site pop-up boutique and a newly reimagined East Deck, featuring a chic beachside bar that blends high fashion with laid-back coastal living. The store will be open and available to shop starting June 9 until September 26.  

Summer fitness with beach view: Gurney’s will debut an expanded Summer Fitness Series, offering a schedule of high-energy classes like pilates, HIIT, yoga, and more. Classes will take place on the Spa Deck overlooking the beach and Atlantic Ocean.
