Situated on Montauk's most pristine stretch of oceanfront real estate, Gurney's Montauk Resort & Seawater Spa is a Hamptons icon and the only four-season resort in Montauk. Providing guests with direct access to a 2,000 ft. private sand beach, Gurney's features 158 rooms, suites and beachfront cottages, each with dramatic ocean views. With five unique dining and cocktail venues, guests can enjoy a wide range of dining options, from elegant seasonal cuisine to casual fare to grab-and-go café favorites.

    Lovely
    The reason for my 5 star rating is because of the service delivered by the staff. Everyone and I do mean everyone could not have been more helpful and friendly making a guest feel like family. In reference to the room, the view is spectacular, bed was extremely comfortable, wonderful linens, towels and robes. My disappointment was not being able to take advantage of the beautiful spa due to our schedule commitments during our visit. But this is a great reason to return. I look forward to this. If I am asked for one word attribute: SERVICE!
    Thank you ctm4945 for enjoying our property and commenting on our service! I am sorry that you were not able to enjoy our newly renovated Seawater Spa on this trip. Please reach out prior to your next visit and we will ensure you get to experience our Spa along with any other amenities you wish. I look forward to meeting you! Jonathan

    Amazing Wedding Venue, Amazing weekend venue, amazing all around!!
    I cannot say enough about this venue and about the staff. We had the most amazing wedding at Gurneys. The facility is gorgeous and right on the beach. The food and drinks are amazing. We also had kosher guests which Gurneys was able to easily accommodate. The views from the tent are gorgeous and feels like you're at a destination wedding. We saw many venues probably about 20-30 and Gurneys was by far the most beautiful - it was marginally more expensive than other venues but worth every penny as you receive so much for your money, its top notch. Montauk is also great because in addition to Gurneys there are lots of things to do and places to hangout for guests. I am sure that our wedding would not have been the same without Ginny. She is basically your wedding fairy god-mother. Up until our wedding, all of Ginny's emails totally alleviated my wedding anxiety. She helped us coordinate everything right before the wedding, answering emails at all hours and available for phone calls. When we arrived prior to our wedding, we came in quite late, close to 9pm and Ginny stayed late just to welcome us at the door with champagne. She helped us coordinate absolutely everything; seating charts, places for pictures, areas for families to gather etc. She was there the whole day of our wedding from morning up until our after party. You feel that are in amazing hands with Ginny and that she will make sure everything goes smoothly and she did just that and so much more! I also asked her to make a birthday cake for my husband the day of the wedding and she was able to miraculously make it happen with the chef, but would've driven into town if she couldn't. It's obvious that she loves her job and is so sweet and wonderful you feel like she's family at the end of it. I truly cannot say enough. I am so grateful for Ginny!! We also need to mention Danielle as she was the person who initially showed us the venue and helped us plan everything (menu, vendors, seating etc) up until Ginny took over. Danielle is so sweet and gets things DONE. I bombarded her with so many questions/calls/emails and she was literally answering all our emails up until she went into labor. She is the best!! Gurneys is an amazing venue and we would have our wedding here a million times over. I am sure it would not have been the same without Ginny and Danielle. Thank you so much!!! We have also stayed here over the weekend prior to and after our wedding and had an amazing time. Rooms are very comfortable and food/drinks are great!
    Dear victoriat22, Thank you for staying with us and we appreciate the special recognition to Ginny and Danielle! The teams work very hard to ensure that each detail is perfect. We have a very special resort and I'm so pleased to hear that you enjoyed such a special occasion with us. Please let me secure your Anniversary reservations for next year! Regards, Christopher Walling Resort Manager

    beach is great, staff is not
    when we got to the hotel the valet took our car and our bags. We went down to the beach and we’re told by the front desk that we will receive a call saying that our bags and room was ready. after about three hours and still no call we decided to call. the woman at the front desk treated us very poorly. we simply asked if our room and bags were ready and explained the situation of what we were told. she was snooty and rude. we headed down to the beach barbecue for dinner. The food was very expensive $55 for a piece of brisket per person. The beach staff is not well trained and you have to ask multiple times to get a drink or lunch. when we got to our cabana the man who is setting up for us acted very rude and displeased with us. at Tillie’s we went to breakfast and the staff is also trained poorly. We went to the restaurant at 7:15 when it said that it opened at seven and they were still opening and said that we couldn’t come in and that it would open soon. The last day, we left and the valet it took a very long time to get our bags together and to get our car. The beach is very beautiful and I would definitely recommend going there for the beach. If there is anything that I think gurneys could work on it would be the service and the quality of the people who are at the front desk. The service is a little bit less than what we were expecting it to be considering the extremely high price. I’m very displeased with the service with the beach is beautiful.
    Dear katiecastronovo, Thank you for the feedback and I'm sorry to hear about your dining and front desk experiences. Feedback is a way for us to know the areas in need of improvement and I appreciate your support. If you should return in the future, please contact me directly for assistance.

My wife and I stayed at Gurneys from Sept 8-10 2023. We attended a wedding in Montauk and several of the guests decided to stay here. We had first floor single room overlooking the parking lot. Upon check in to say I was underwhelmed by the accomodations would be an understatement. For $850/night I expected more than a Motel 6 shoebox. The room was is desperate need of an overhaul as well as basic maintenance. The door to the bathroom could not close since it was out of square. The floors were filthy as evidenced by our black feet after 5 mins of walking around the room. The hardware was rusty, the mini fridge was leaking all over the floor and my ultimate pet peeve, the grout needed a good treatment of Tilex. On the plus side, the staff was welcoming and friendly but that hardly made up for the condition of the room. After walking throughout the resort, it was obvious that attention to details was not management's strong suit. The facilities need a good once over. I would be much more accepting of the conditions if this place wasnt so expensive. The good news is that we have no reason to ever return. If you are in need of a place in Montauk , I would definitley suggest you look elsewhere.

First my deepest sympathy to the staff and family of George Filopoulos who was the owner of Gurney's with big vision for the property and the east end. I got the pleasure to meet him several times and enjoyed speaking to him about the passion he had for Montauk. I decided to book a stay at Gurney for our anniversary. My boyfriend flew in from LA and we drove to the hotel. They said check in was 4 pm, at 4 pm our room was not ready. We waited a few mins and went up to the room. If you are not a person that like uphill steps, this place is not for you. Lots of steps to the room, when we arrived at the room it looked really nice, the view was spectacular, definitely an ocean view. We settled into our room and went to explore the property. We had dinner at the hotel the first night, it was good not great. Around 9 pm, we heard a dog barking, the dog barked for hours. I went to the front desk to complain, I was told the hotel is pet friendly and there was nothing they cannot any do about it, they can only have security go speak to the owner. Three nights in a row we could not sleep. The owner left the dog alone went out and the dog barked all night till 2am. One night a guest from another room knocked on our door to find out if we had a dog because they could not sleep. We asked the hotel to move us to another room. The gentleman Will at the front desk is amazing, he has empathy and knows how to take care of guest. He arranged to move us to a quiet room. Oh, I forgot the second day our beautiful view was replaced by a crane putting up a large white tent blocking the ocean front view. The construction started at 7am. Although the new room had more steps to get to, we really like the room and Amani the bell man with two other bell men helped us move our belongings to the other room. They were amazing!!!!!! After settling into the room, we hanged out and I wanted to surprise my boyfriend by extended our stay. I went down to the front desk to ask to spend another night. I went on their website and book another night at a room on the beach. Will had informed me that the room we were in was booked. We checked out of the room and waited for the room on the beach to be ready. On Sat at 2.19 pm received a text that the room was ready. I went to the front desk to get the key, I was told that was a mistake, housekeeping called and said the room was not ready. At 4 pm I went back to front desk for an update. I was told that there was a problem with our room. They said in a few hours they will have another room with two beds. My things were already delivered to the room, I asked my boyfriend to go with Will to see what the problem is, He came back and said there was a leak in the shower, and it did not look too bad, Will informed me that engineering was looking into the problem. I was exhausted, we had friends staying at the hotel and we had early dinner plans. I arrived at the room, it was right on the beach, my boyfriend went to take a shower, The steam from the shower started to peel the ceiling and it was falling all over him, the shower was also not working properly, the water was dripping not flowing. When the pieces of the ceiling fell down, we could see black mold in the ceiling, black mold was everywhere, that means it was leaking for a while. I went to take a shower at my friend's room. That was crazy, not in a million years did we think the ceiling will go from bad to worst. I wanted to have some wine, the glasses in the room were dirty with lipstick on the rim. I called down to guest services to get clean glasses it never showed up, we had one towel in the room, had to call to get more towels, that took hours to arrive. They warned that something was wrong with the fridge, it was making a lot of noise, they promised engineer was going to show up, he never did, we had to sleep with ear plugs. The room needs to get some overhaul and repairs. Furniture should be replaced; floors need to be cleaned, housekeeping needs to do better. The staff at the front desk can only do so much, they report to the hotel manager, if you say you are a 5-start property, you need to operate on that level. No one should come out of their room and see a ceiling looking like that, moisture and mold, hire a contractor, find the leak, fix and paint it. Also, the hotel manager needs to be replying to guest who are leaving so many horrible reviews of this beautiful place. Take a moment and read the reviews, see where you can do better, make repairs, have a meeting with your team, in every breakdown there is a breakthrough. It's not ok to ignore the reviews. Also maybe have the dogs to one side of the property. Guest needs to sleep. We are paying to stay at the hotel, not asking to stay for free. One of the owner key strategies was listening to his guests, providing a resort experience that is both classic and contemporary. He was committed making every stay every memorable. I hope his legacy continues and the manger gets this property back to the vision that George had for this resort and the community. Again, Will and Amani was amazing!!!! If you venture to stay at this resort, ask for Will at the front desk. Amani at the door. They care. Check out the gallery of photos. Photos do not lie. GH

Dear Checkin66, Thank you for staying with us and for your support for our employees and the family of George Filopoulos. I've had the pleasure of working with George over the past 8 years and he loved Gurney's and was supportive of the experience we've provided for our guests. I was there on Saturday when you arrived for the room and we were changing the room due to a leak. Will mentioned that you were ok with the room as you wanted to get in sooner. Please know that we try to correct issues before a guest occupies a room and I'm sorry that you had issues with this room. We have plans to renovate this building this winter and we have corrected this since your departure. Please contact me directly for future reservations and I'd be happy to help in the spirit of how George and I worked with our guests. Regards, Michael Nenner Executive Vice President Gurney's Resorts

I realize that Guerneys is a popular resort but I've never been so underwhelmed. The staff is pretty good and go the extra mile to welcome their guests however, the physical plant is a disgrace. Our $1000 per night room has a toilet that leaks, filthy floors, bathroom grout that needs a good scrub, rust on every piece of hardware in the room, a bathroom dor that won't close, and a fridge that leaks from condensation. Whoever is responsible for the facility should find a new profession. I would never return to Guerneys even if it was free. I'm sure the NYC millenials that frequent this place think it's cool and the place to be seen but having stayed in some the finest hotels in the world I assure you this place on its best day isn't even close to measuring up. Good luck if you come, maybe you'll get a $3000 per night suite that has been overhauled.

The service here is the worst i have experienced. Front desk is not aware of what the resort offers, room service was ordered and never delivered, and the beach team made is move way down the beach from one set of empty chairs to another. The staff is totally incompetent and there is no pretense of treating you as a guest. I've stayed many less expensive places and had a great experience. This place is a racket and a joke. Don't come.

Service is 3 star at 5 star prices. They have valet if you’re staying at the main hotel area. If you’re staying in a room away from the main area, you have to park on your own. The resort is all steps and hills so don’t go here if you have trouble with stairs or climbing. The rooms are hardwood floors so you hear everything from the next room or from people above you. You’d think they’d at least put down a rug. They allow you to check in prior to arrival and provide an estimated arrival time so they can try to have your room ready at that time but I found it pointless as I still had to wait for the room despite that. The room was clean but the furniture didn’t look maintained. Lighting in the room is horrible so if you have eyesight issues, stay away. Also, the mini fridge has a blue light but you’ll notice the cabinet that houses the fridge and covers the bar sink plumbing has the doors removed so you can see it all and the fridge light at night when you’re trying to sleep. I asked front desk about that and they said they took the doors out on purpose since they don’t guests to be bothered having to open a cabinet to get to the fridge. But they want guests to be bothered by the blue neon light from the fridge when they’re trying to sleep? The front desk service didn’t seem to be knowledgeable about the hours of the hotel Kid’s Club as they told us it closes at 5 PM and then we get a call at 4 PM asking where we are to pick up our child since the club actually closes at 4 PM. We had gone out shopping and had to race back to the hotel to get our child. The noise from the other rooms and poor service overall led us to decide to leave one day earlier. When I told front desk we were leaving early, they didn’t offer any credit or refund and instead said they have a 30 day cancellation policy and we would still have to pay despot us having stayed 4 out of our planned 5 nights. I explained it was their fault I’m leaving early and asked them to comp a meal or two I had at the hotel to offer me something. They said they would not. They didn’t care that the service wasn’t up to expectations and I didn’t have a terrific experience. I’ve stayed at real 5 star hotels where they went out of their way to make me feel that 5 star service. This place didn’t care. I told them I was expecting something special when I booked the hotel and I certainly didn’t get that. There are other places in the area that provide much better service at either the same or lesser price. This place disappointed me.

Beautiful beach, rooms are large though require updating (especially for the price…and our bathroom was *tiny*), spa remodel is absolutely gorge, and you can’t beat the location (for which you pay a premium). If the weather is nice, then nothing can beat a day on the beach at Gurney’s.

Booked Gurneys at the last minute for one night to stay with my husband and I for our anniversary and were very unhappy with their services and ammenities. We were excited for our stay and booked through hoteltonight.com. Arrived to a cold shower for both of us. We were told when checking in that our wrist bands would be able to access the outdoor pool at 9AM the next morning and that we would be able to access the night time fire pits/DJs outside later that evening as well. When we arrived at the fire pits at night and showed our bracelets they said that the fire marshal was there and we would not be permitted to enter the area because they were at capacity which was disapointing because that was part of the reason why we booked at gurneys. The next morning we went to go out to the pool, it had rained the night before but it was sunny and nice out at 9AM. The pool was not open. We went back at 10 - still not open but there was someone at the pool that said the life guard would be there at 11AM and we could not enter before then and we had to call the front desk. I called the front desk and they were incredibly rude and basically hung up on me and transfered me to the spa when i told her repeatedly i was calling about the outdoor pool. I called again and was placed on hold and told the pool would be open at 11AM. We went again at 11 and still not open. We had to check out at 1130AM so at this point we werent going to be able to use the pool since it was 1115 and still no life guard to allow us to enter. We called the front desk again and they hung up on me. So frustasting. When i go to check out i complained about not being able to use these amenities when they are charging me 200$ !!! for a resort fee that i wasnt able to utilize. They said the pool was closed due to "weather" but it was perfectly nice out and not raining all morning so that was a total lie. They obviously just didn't have a life guard coming until 11 and he was obviously late. The women at the desk said she would check with her manager and let us know in the future if there was anything to be done on the resort fee because we really didnt get to utilize anything we wanted to on the resort. I asked why she could not check now and why she had to let us know in the future? I asked if we could talk to the manager ourselves then and all of a sudden the man standing next to her who was there for the whole conversation then chimes in and says im the manager. But 5 seconds ago you had to talk to him and let us know in the future like he wasnt standing right next to you???? We still had to pay the resort fee and it made for a very unhappy ending to our trip. This place is not worth all of the money you spend. There are far better places in Montauk when you can actually enjoy the facilities and they don't treat you poorly.

Beautiful hotel, great beach. Great ample room, we stayed in the front with a terrace overlooking the beach. Not cheap, but so worth it. The spa is finally finished and they did a fantastic job. Even if you don’t get a treatment you can still enjoy the indoor pool, the different temperate pools, sauna and steam room. We love staying there. they have a terrace in which there’s a bar scene (fun!) some nights, and the restaurant is legit. We are repeats. Our dog is welcomed as well which makes it an easy family vacation.

We had such high expectations of gurneys knowing the hamptons and having read reviews, seen the amazing marketing and also knowing the cost. We travel often from the UK and having stayed at the 5 star ikos and other all inclusive resorts with amazing family friendly facilities, pools, kids clubs and beach clubs the service and standards at this hotel were poor for the price which is almost double and includes no food or drinks. You won’t be disappointed by the amazing beach and views- it is stunning and we love the hamptons culture, style and atmosphere (we even named one of our children Hampton!) but having spent a lot to stay here for 4 nights it was disappointing to find such poor service. George on the front door was the best but everyone else were largely summer student workers with little professionalism, especially at the kids club where the kids entertained themselves in a great facility whilst the staff sat on their phones behind the desk. The activity program we had seen was largely non existent! One of our rooms also had broken air conditioning which was replaced with a mobile unit that was so noisy it was hard to sleep. Despite 4 requests for an update there was no response or solution. We still had a great time and still love the hamptons but wouldn’t pay so much money to stay here again even with the amazing beach, unless we were travelling on a kid free weekend.
