New York City hotelier Sean MacPherson (the talent behind such hits as the Bowery, Ludlow and Marlton hotels) continues his success with the hip Crow’s Nest Inn in the Hamptons. Overlooking Montauk Bay, the hippie-chic property is situated just a five-minute drive from the buzzy surfer town of Montauk. A quiet retreat during the week and a hotspot on the weekends, this charming 14-room inn is perfect for a quintessential Montauk weekend.

The simple accommodations are eclectically appointed, and channel a surfer-chic aesthetic. While the vibe is rustic, guests will find plush mattresses and lovely bathrooms including vibrant tiling and C.O. Bigelow products. Those staying on property are also treated to beach parking passes, complimentary bicycles and a guaranteed table at one the best restaurants in the Hamptons (their own), making staying here a beach weekend made easy.

Low-maintenance travelers who will appreciate the chic, rustic décor and a casual atmosphere.
