Top Shell Beach Hotel Reviews

Sound View Greenport

10/10 Excellent

"A Beautiful and Peaceful Stay at Sound View Greenport I had a wonderful stay at Sound View Greenport and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway on the North Fork of Long Island. It’s a great place for couples, families, or anyone who simply wants to escape the busy city and enjoy some quiet time by the water. Greenport is also nearby, making it convenient to explore the local restaurants, shops, vineyards, and other attractions. If you’re planning a trip to Greenport or the North Fork, Sound View is definitely a place worth considering. I would happily stay here again! 🌅🌊❤️"

Sag Harbor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Sag Harbor Inn was located in a beautiful spot and close to shops and restaurants. This was an excellent choice."

Silver Sands Motel & Beach Bungalows

10/10 Excellent

"amazing. and David was so helpful from before we arrived until we drove away. Perfection."

North Fork Resort

8/10 Good

"My sisters and I booked a 2 bedroom cottage for a long weekend around Greenport. The listing said it was a 2 bedroom with queen beds but when I arrived I realized one room was only a full so one of us had to sleep on the pull out couch for us all to be comfortable. You also definitely need a car. It’s a 45 min walk from the train station so if you’re coming from the city it’s not a convenient location and it’s off a busy road. The cottage did have lots of kitchen amenities and a grill which is great if you’re looking for some easy meals. The shower’s water pressure was great and the air conditioning was effective. Unfortunately you can’t open any windows because there are no screens in the windows and the area is buggy. Overall, the place was nice but the rooms are smaller than I expected and you’re far from everything (even the main reception and pool)"

Faraway Sag Harbor

8/10 Good

"Faraway has been renovated Beautifully. The food has improved since Baron's Cove. The pool would benefit improving service and perhaps combining the food / drinks servers and pool attendants. In addition since we have been guests of the older Hotel, Baron's Cove for 16 years it would have been meaningful to have the new staff welcome guests and perhaps give a priority rate or welcome massage etc."

The Shoals Suites and Slips

10/10 Excellent

"Loved everything about our stay!"

House on Chase Creek

10/10 Excellent

"Nice owner.. convenient location"

Oyster Estate

10/10 Excellent

"Staff looked tired,"
