If you are going to stay in the Hamptons, why not stay on the water? It's much cooler here. This property is 5-10 degrees cooler than inland East Hampton.
The property and cottages are in excellent shape, please read the 250+ superb reviews. AI has elevated this listing to Superhost status.
This private 2 bedroom/2 bath cottage enjoys spectacular sunsets and a cool breeze off the water. Launch the four, 2 person tandem and two single sit-on-top ocean kayaks directly from the end of the property and enjoy the nature & beauty of East Hampton's Three Mile Harbor Bay. (while kayaking see an osprey nest, many egrets, swans pairs and the vast biodiversity of the bay shore line)
This is an expansive property with wide open views of the water, natural landscape and gardens. The property overlooks a 100+ acre nature preserve, its very beautiful and peaceful.
The property is spectacular and not your typical enclosed Long Island suburban backyard.
The 2 bedroom newly renovated cottage is very comfortable (you have the entire building), each bedroom has its own bedroom, the large master bedroom has a queen size bed, the other bedroom located on the opposite side of the cottage ( this renovation change was just completed) has 2 twins (that can be combined to make a King size bed).
There are all new fixtures and appliances in the cottage, including a commercial grade (2 ton) central air conditioning system. The temp stays very comfortable.

The four 2-person and two single sit-on-top ocean kayaks, which can be launched directly from the property, there is no additional cost to use them. They are stored 15ft from the water.

It’s a small 2 bedroom house with a fully equipped kitchen and grill. They offer kayaks and bikes for you to use during your stay. Would definitely book again.
What an amazing trip we had, John the property manager has been great to host us for the entire trip. We enjoyed the clean property and it is so different than every other rental we ever had. Everything in the house screams quality, the spoon and fork are probably better than we have at home. The coffee is Lavazza, and plates and table cloth are all too quality . John showed us all the little gems around town such as great restaurants and hidden beautiful beaches. The house is situated in an amazing location where you can hit all the historical and hip spots within a few mins. We will be definitely looking to come back again next year. John, thanks for everything and we wish you a successful 2024 in all your endeavors.
We just returned from a stay at “the Rex” property and truly can’t say enough good things about the location (close to town! Right on the bay!), amenities (kayaks! Tennis rackets! Bikes!) and service (greeted personally by the owner even though it was 11pm!). The sheets were soft, the cabin was impeccably clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. This cottage is a Unicorn and we will be back!
