Best resort in the Hamptons / Long Island area! My family and I loved this resort before and after renovations- which are incredible. The staff is outstandingly well trained and so kind. We come to Shelter Island / North Fork annually so we love that The Pridwin has been renewed.

The Pridwin is a beautiful property with a stunning view and old New England, Americana historic vibe. It is a quintessential experience if you want to have quiet yet convenience to both the north and south forks. The ferry is quick and the island is beautiful and quiet if you go during off season. Lovely long weekend trip for me and my husband. Highly recommend.

Beautifully designed property with several unique and inviting spaces. Very comfortable room and bed and we took advantage of the complimentary use of the kayaks and paddle boards and easy access to the beach. The staff at the front desk and the pool bar were extremely friendly and laid back. Lovely hotel.

The Pridwin is amazing for a shelter island getaway. The property is gorgeous and the access to the beach and pool, kayaking and pickleball courts leave nothing to be desired. The staff is wonderful and so accommodating. Don’t miss the summer Wednesday bbqs!

The hotel and the grounds are gorgeous. There are so many lovely places to sit and admire the views. All staff were amazing. All were cordial, prompt and attentive. From check-in to bell men to pool staff to dock boys, bartenders, housekeeping, waitresses and all staff were fantastic. Whoever does the hiring for this hotel should be commended! We would love to return.

Book it! Worth it

If you are on the fence about The Pridwin or even Shelter Island I hope this reviews tips you to book. My family and I had a fantastic stay. The property is amazing, Shelter Island is great, the amenities are top notch and the overall setting is spectacular but what made it truly special is the service. They could not have been kinder to my daughter and us. They have really outdone on making you feel welcome.

The hotel is fabulous. The setting by far the best. The vibe incredible. Loved the boat ride, live music, the food is delicious. Unfortunately we stayed in the main house this time,it is quite noisy as the installation needs to be increased. The manager of the dining room is nasty and has an angry presence. Other than him your staff is lovely

What a beautiful property!! Recently renovated and sparkling in every area. Gorgeous light filled corner room facing the Bay. Dining on porch with lovely view and very good food. Lovely staff, though front desk seemed new and not aware of what activities were available, though listed on the welcome letter. Small frustration that the spa was closed as the only masseuse was sick for the whole week. But, hotel's private boat took us for lunch at Sag Harbour, at no charge!? Wonderful and can't wait to return!
