PB hotel design editorial

Carl Fisher built his private social club on Star Island in 1928, the same restless developer who had dredged Miami Beach from mangrove swamp and dreamed of doing the same to Montauk. Nearly a century later, the Montauk Yacht Club returned to life on Memorial Day Weekend 2023 following a multi-million dollar renovation by Safe Harbor Marinas, its 35 acres on Lake Montauk restored to something closer to Fisher's original vision of coastal leisure at scale — 107 rooms, three pools, and the Hamptons' largest marina with more than 200 wet slips stretching into the harbor. The white lighthouse tower that anchors the compound remains the property's most recognizable landmark, visible from the aerial view as a kind of compass point between the pool terrace and the docks packed with superyachts. Newport-based KPR Interiors shaped the renovation around what they called quiet, elevated leisure, and the rooms deliver exactly that register — whitewashed shiplap walls paired with charcoal upholstered headboards and bleached oak frames in some configurations, linen curtains and Adirondack chairs on private decks in the waterfront cottages dating to the original 1928 construction. The outdoor terrace dining space leans into teak furniture with rope-woven backs and rattan lounge pieces arranged beneath a louvered pergola, the marina's forest of masts providing the only backdrop needed. Nothing here strains for effect; the setting has always done the heavy lifting.

About

Set on a private marina along Lake Montauk, Montauk Yacht Club blends the spirit of a classic East Coast retreat with a more modern, design-forward sensibility. Originally established in 1928, the historic property features 106 rooms and suites, five historic cottages, a full-service marina, three pools, a private beach, and views of the lake, gardens, or marina. Guests can spend the day between the hotel’s indoor and outdoor pools, private beach area, tennis & padel courts, spa, and boating experiences, or dine waterfront at Alba Spiaggia, a coastal Italian restaurant with crudos, grilled fish, house-made pastas, and wood-fired pizza.

"We had a wonderful experience at the Montauk Yacht Club, and Leo made it even more special. From the moment we arrived, he was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. He went above and beyond to make our stay memorable by surprising us with a cake to celebrate our father's 75th birthday. It was such a thoughtful gesture that meant a lot to our family. Exceptional service like this is what makes a place stand out. Thank you, Leo, for your kindness and hospitality—we truly appreciate it and hope to be back again soon!"

"We are currently stating at MYC and my advice to anyone looking to book this hotel is read the negative reviews. This hotel doesn’t match up to the positive reviews online. It’s a yacht club and the hotel comes as a 2nd and it shows. Reasons below - the rooms are so noisy! All rooms have interconnecting doors so the strangers in the next room might as well be sharing with you, creaky stairs throughout the building, rooms on the lower floor can hear every step from the room above, no sound proofing at all, hearing dogs yapping in rooms on the opposite side of the building. - The rooms are fusty and smell damp. - A double room has 1 chair so where is the other person to sit? Attention to details is poor. - The bathrooms are so badly ventilated that the clothes you hang on the hanging rail get damp from the shower steam. - what you can’t see from the online photos is how many boats are at the marina and all the boat owners have use of the hotel facilities, restaurant and pool as well as the hotel guests which is too many people. The hotel isn’t big enough for this and there aren’t nearly enough places to relax and enjoy the sun. There are approximately 30 sun loungers around the adults pool and once these are taken there is no where else to go. - Our 1st and only evening meal in the restaurants was chaotic. The hotel is staffed by lots of kids on college break and though they are friendly the inexperience shows. It’s also extortionate in price. - When we arrived I asked to change room due to the noise level from the room next door. It wasn’t that they were unusually noisy but it was lack of insulation. The reception guy said all rooms are the same and there wasn’t as option to change other than pay even more. Our room was $1500 per night - that is extortionate for the quality of the room so no way would we have paid more to be in a different room and still be told it would have the same issues and an interconnecting door. - The hotel feels like a motel that’s had an addition of a nicely decorated reception and restaurant but the rooms don’t match the same level. - Pool loungers are stained and very dirty. - Restaurant food is mediocre but ridiculously expensive. Example - the lunchtime fish tacos = 2 tiny tacos with a very small, poor quality piece of fish. Not worth $32!!! - be warned when you check out you will be charged $100 per day water club fee - this is an additional charge to use the pool, tennis court, coffee machine and WiFi. Unbelievable on a supposed 5 star property. This whole hotel experience hasn’t wowed us on any level. It is a joke to charge the extras and expect people to return. Only positive is the concierge lady who books the sightseeing experiences and bike hire ,she is so knowledgeable of the area and the best things to do. Totally underwhelming experience and we would never return."

"MYC is one of the nicer properties in Montauk. The grounds are very well maintained, the rooms are modern and spacious, the pools are clean and properly staffed, the beach is perfect for children, the service is outstanding and the food choices are excellent. MYC is in a quiet location but only a short hop to the harbor area and a quick drive to everything else."
