The Bentley Hotel Southampton, which will be the first Hyatt property in the Hamptons on the East End of Long Island, is perfectly placed off Sunrise Highway and under 40 miles from Long Island MacArthur Airport (ISP), allowing travelers easy access to all the local charm the seaside communities have to offer, including 360-degree views at the Montauk Lighthouse, surfing at Cooper’s Beach or bike rides down the idyllic 30-mile stretch of shoreline. Each of the property’s 40 all-suite accommodations recently underwent a dramatic enhancement and nod to the star-studded, famed destination with opulent pink, mauve and neutral accents and decorative touches complete with a separate living area, dining space, well-appointed workspaces, and a fully furnished primary guestroom – perfect for short- or long-term stays.

“The Bentley Hotel Southampton now offers a vibrant hotel experience conveniently located at the entrance of the highly sought after destination of the Hamptons,” said Keane Bell, vice president of franchise operations and owner relations, Hyatt. “Hyatt remains dedicated to strategically expanding our luxury and lifestyle brand footprint in key markets where our guests and World of Hyatt members want to be. We look forward to inviting guests and locals alike to connect, live in the moment and celebrate the joy of life in the Hamptons.”

“We eagerly anticipate celebrating several milestones alongside Hyatt as we commence this exciting new journey together,” said Ketan Patel, above property operations at Bijal Hospitality. “We're delighted to introduce Hyatt guests to a new stay option in the Hamptons."

The Bentley Hotel Southampton is a vibrant out-east escape which is deeply rooted in the tapestry of the Hamptons, offering guests easy access to all the region has to offer – from wineries to beaches. Boasting stellar on-property amenities, guests can unwind by the heated pool, play games in the outdoor green space or venture to several nearby restaurants. In addition to enjoying an authentic Hamptons stay, guests can check out the property’s event spaces to orchestrate their dream outdoor wedding or event in the Hamptons. With three outdoor areas, each over 6,000 square feet, the hotel offers a blend of beauty and a lively atmosphere.

Located at 161 Hills Station Rd, Southampton, New York, The Bentley Hotel Southampton is expected to integrate into the World of Hyatt loyalty program when it joins the JdV by Hyatt brand in mid-2024. At that time, members will have the opportunity to earn points on The Bentley Hotel Southampton stays to use for free nights, dining, spa experiences and more.
