The Pridwin Hotel

A fabulous, luxury hotel and restaurant right on Shelter Island. If you live close by, like we do, it's just a $32 round trip ferry from either Sag Harbor or Greenport and you are there. This is a beautiful location, right on the water. Beach and other amenities are available. We didn't stay at the hotel, we just had lunch. A delicious lunch. The drinks were superb. We had the NY Sour and Day Trip. For lunch we ate the Tuna Burger (I got it medium but should have gotten it a little rarer) and the Eggplant Sandwich (I thought a bit chewy to my taste, but I'm half Italian and picky about eggplant. I highly recommend them! Tell em Barsnobs sent ya!

I am surprised by all the negative reviews…the Pridwin is incredible! The hotel feels like the set of a Wes Anderson movie - designed with a real attention to detail. They have staff from around the world who are interesting, incredibly polite, and eager to help. Their barbecue is like the perfect summer night…they had everything you could have wanted and live music !! Highly recommend :)

First time staying at the Pridwin and the experience was just ok. The property is fairly large and the location is great, walking distance to Sunset Beach. We stayed in the main house and our room was facing the back of the property. Which is usually not a problem but with the kitchen exhaust in the back location, our room had a noticeable kitchen smell to it. Not ideal considering the room rate. Service is spotty but it’s to be expected with seasonal staff. We didn’t dine at their restaurant but we did have delicious afternoon drinks on the patio.
