Salty kiss

Holiday Rental Description

The summer retreat for Manhattan’s wealthy elite, the vibe of the Hamptons couldn’t be further from New York’s chaotic urban sprawl. And if you’re looking for the ultimate in serenity and tranquility, this idyllic beach house is for you. Every element of this cottage has been thoughtfully considered to make the most of its seafront location on Long Island’s North Fork. Inside, the whitewashed colour scheme extends to every room, creating a soft, calming atmosphere. In the open kitchen/living room, vast windows and glass sliding doors welcome in the dune-studded view and ocean breeze. In the bedrooms, pressed white linen lies on pale-wooden bed frames, with driftwood adorning the minimalist dressing tables. And as relaxed as you’ll feel inside, just wait until you step outside. Where the decked terrace ends, the beach begins, meaning you’re just a couple of barefoot steps from the gently rolling waves. Bliss.

Home truths:
*Pets are welcome for an additional fee of $200
*This is a remote location, so you'll need a car to get around
*The garden area isn't fenced off, so you'll need to keep an eye on curious children and dogs
