Surf Club At Montauk — Hotel in Town of East Hampton

The Surf Club Resort is a unique blend of a typical resort and a beachside townhouse community, complete with amenities. Each unit, individually owned, carries its own distinctive style—some freshly renovated, while others retain a more dated charm.||Compared to nearby beachside resorts, the Surf Club exudes a more upscale vibe while maintaining a family friendly atmosphere. Upon arrival, the meticulously maintained grounds immediately caught my attention. Every morning, I observed staff diligently cleaning the paths with blowers, ensuring the property remained spotless from the beach to the parking lot. It was evident from the moment we arrived that the owners take immense pride in the resort’s upkeep.||From the first day, it was clear that the resort was bustling with families both small and large, with children of all ages.||Although check-in was scheduled for 5 p.m., we were delighted to find our room ready and waiting for us at 1 p.m.||-Room Description-||We stayed in a 1-bedroom duplex unit that offered both comfort and convenience. The main level featured a compact kitchen equipped with an apartment-sized refrigerator, freezer, microwave, cooktop, and coffee maker. Utensils, plates, bowls, mugs, and glasses were all provided. A small table with four chairs sat adjacent to the kitchen, making it easy to enjoy meals. With no restaurant on the property, the kitchen made mealtime a breeze. The resort is very walkable, so returning to the unit for a break from the sun or to grab a snack was always convenient.||The living room included a sleeper sofa and a flat-panel TV, with a sliding glass door that opened onto a deck. The deck featured a lounge chair, a table with chairs, and an umbrella, perfect for relaxing outdoors.||Upstairs, the bedroom offered a queen-sized bed, dresser, nightstands and a closet. It also included a separate sink and vanity area—a thoughtful touch that allowed someone to use the sink even if the bathroom was occupied. The bathroom itself was well-appointed with a large, glass-enclosed walk-in shower that provided ample hot water.||Navigating the stairs with a large, heavy piece of luggage posed a bit of a challenge, so if stairs are an issue, it might be worth asking the resort for assistance. I’m sure they’d be willing to help.||-Service Quality-||The staff at the Surf Club worked tirelessly and were genuinely helpful. They clearly enjoyed their jobs and went out of their way to ensure our experience was exceptional.||-Dining Experiences-||Though the resort lacks an on-site restaurant, it offers dining options for guests on select nights during the summer season. On these designated evenings, dinner is complimentary for resort guests. During our stay, one night featured a pizza truck that churned out a variety of fresh pizzas for an hour and a half. Another night, the resort hosted a farm-to-table BBQ on the pool deck, serving fresh salad, quinoa salad, hot dogs, burgers, and chicken sausages. They also offered Montauk Brewery beer and local wines. Both evenings, everything was complimentary and absolutely delicious. In case all that wasn’t enough, Friday night there was a happy hour welcome party for weekend guests with live music.||-Location-||In my opinion, the location of the Surf Club Montauk is ideal. Staying on the beach in Montauk with the convenience of walking to town is a perfect combination, and the Surf Club’s location delivers both effortlessly. Here is an idea of the resorts proximity to some well known landmarks in the area (*these times are all walking distance):||The Plaza: 5 minutes|John’s Drive-In: 9 minutes|Puff & Putt Mini Golf: 11 minutes|Shadmore State Preserve Trail: 17 minutes||-Amenities-||The resort offers some great amenities that made our stay more enjoyable. The pool deck at the center of the resort is outfitted with cushioned lounge chairs, tables and umbrellas, creating a comfortable space to relax. The heated pool is kept at the perfect temperature (we like it warm), and towel service is provided for added convenience. On the beach, chair service is available, and each evening, the hotel sends a text with a link to a website where you can request the number of chairs and umbrellas you’d like set up the next day. This hassle-free service made our beach days effortless and was one of the key reasons we chose the Surf Club this year. ||Some other nice features were the two hard-surface tennis courts and a fully equipped gym with free weights, a rack, treadmills, and even a Peloton bike.||One night during our stay there was a PG-rated movie shown on the lawn out by the pool and the next morning a yoga class was being offered outside. ||Whether you’ve visited Montauk before or are a first-timer, bonfires on the beach after dusk are the perfect way to end the day under the stars. The resort makes this easy by allowing you to request beach chairs for your bonfire. You’ll need to bring a stainless steel tub, firewood, and a water bucket—essential to avoid a fine—but the setup is otherwise taken care of.||-Overall Experience and Highlights-||Our stay at the Surf Club made for a wonderful 4 days in Montauk that our family won’t forget. Its beachfront location, proximity to town, kitchenette, beautiful property, heated pool, towel and chair service enabled us to wind-down and enjoy quality family time for a few days. We look forward...

Our stay at the Surf Club Resort in Montauk, located on Long Island, was nothing short of exceptional. ||The property is blessed with a convenient location and boasts a well-structured design, featuring clear signage and an ample number of trash receptacles that ensure the premises are always clean.||What I found impressive was how immaculately the grounds were maintained, reflecting the high standards of the resort. To keep you refreshed during your stay, the resort has thoughtfully provided easy access to vending machines offering a variety of cold drinks.||When it came to recreational activities, I had a great time playing tennis. The swimming pool was a delight, being not just clean but also free of any overpowering bleach smell or slippery surfaces that are all too common at other resorts. The water was at a pleasantly warm temperature which further enhanced the experience.||The resort's location is advantageous, being in close proximity to numerous restaurants that can be reached with an easy walk. A visit to the beach is made even more enjoyable thanks to the ample chairs available. What made my experience at the beach unforgettable was the friendly and proactive staff who were always at hand to ensure everything was set up perfectly.||I wholeheartedly recommend Surf Club Resort to anyone visiting Montauk. It is the perfect blend of great location, excellent amenities, and remarkable service. A true gem on...

We just checked into unit 21, 2 bedroom oceanfront. Turned out it only had 1 bathroom, not 2 (for 6 adults), it has a queen bed in 1 bedroom, upstairs is not even a bedroom, it’s a loft with a low & angled ceiling on one side. During my booking I asked if it has king bed in one bedroom, 2 queens in the second & a queen pull out sofa, Roxann said yes. How do you say yes when that’s not the case... At check in we tried to switch to 2 separate 1-bedroom units, there was an extra $1500 quoted for 2 nights. So not worth about $5000 for 2 nights. Once in the unit, the bathroom has only 2 hand towels & 4 bath towels for 6 adults. Both phones in the unit don’t work, no one answered at front desk when called from cell phones (after 7pm & only a few min after checking in) so we had to walk over to the office to request more towels & blanket from housekeeping. The carpet upstairs smells like someone urinated there. I opened the soap to wash up & there was a dead small cockroach stock on the soap. The requested items were delivered, they had no idea about the broken phones. They said someone will come tomorrow to fix. The WORST 1st impression so far & SO not worth over $3000 for 2 nights. So far this is ruining my bday with my family. Let’s see if they make up for all this...
