Please save your money and stay somewhere else as this place needs to be shut down and refurbished ASAP. There here are many other great options to stay on Shelter Island.

The bed needs to be replaced. Everything feels like it needs a deep clean. The bikes and pool chairs are just thrown in a shed and are worn out. Not even a drinking glass in the room.

The rooms are always super clean and we love all the amenities the hotel offers like the pool, beach service (food+drinks), fire pit s'more's and sauna! Highly recommend!

I have family members who stayed here in August 2025. Overall they said it was fine, and otherwise…read moreI'd give it 4 stars, but there was one major annoyance that wasn't remotely handled acceptably, losing one star for the underlying issue and another for the poor handling: the TV wouldn't work at all. Okay, people don't travel to watch TV, but you just want things to work and to relax, and constantly calling the staff to fix the TV and having them in your room failing to fix the TV is not relaxing. Make sure major items in the rooms are working, or have spares and replace them. Period. This place was then too cheap to offer real recompense and gave my family member some awful ski cap that probably cost about 30 cents. Just unacceptable at this price point.

Amazing stay over the weekend at this little piece of heaven on the east end. We booked Unit 2…read morethrough the Beach Plum Resort site rather than Air BnB and it was easy peasy. Our unit was spacious with a small eat in kitchen. The two bedrooms were very spacious with one of them having a fold out futon. I slept on the futon which wasn't uncomfortable at all. The unit itself could comfortably sleep probably 8 but we were four women and since it was spacious we just spread out. The location of the resort itself is perfect. Across the street and a short stroll down a path to get to the beach. It's literally 5 min from the main part of town. You also have access to the pool which is a nice size and doesn't get too crowded. I loved this place so much, I'm already scouting dates to take my husband back out east. I would totally stay here again. It really is great for family but also bachelorette parties!

Truthfully though, my biggest summer hangups have been staying in a hotel, going to the beach and making sure no one is hovering over me. But I bent a bit and felt more at ease with taking a long weekend trip- especially since New York pandemic numbers are looking all right. Even though Ocean View Terrace has a motel-y look in person, they got away from the kitsch for more chic- and hubs went with it. Not necessarily situated on the water, but the bay IS actually Ocean View Terrace's biggest selling point at this compact 'Inn' from across the street on Montauk Hwy in Hamptons Bays. There are other noteworthy features: our airy and cheerful room has modern plank flooring, eating area, walk-in shower, beds had clean super crisp white sheets, walls were clean, AC, small deck, WiFi, charging stations, cable tv and a few other amenities. Because of COVID, Ocean View implemented strict check-in guidelines to minimize the spread of germs and a few other protocols. All nice to hear. But we felt a lot of work went towards upgrading rooms and forgot about the kitchenette. Still clean, but the stove burners, were individually covered in aluminum foil and that wasn't a pretty sight. I almost don't mind staying in motel-y spots- but as long as it's styled nicely from head-to-toe, I'm in. Adriana the Inn keeper though makes sure Ocean View's grounds are entirely well-kept in this little gem- and she's so sweet! Plus the office is also modernized, crisp and coastal. Again...If they just would've kept a keen eye on the kitchenette that's all. This is the smallest room we've stayed in ever. And at almost $400 a night- for 4 nights (yep)....... this is the Hamptons after all.

Just returned from a 2-night Monday-Wednesday stay at Breakers!…read more We stayed in Unit 8 which was a King Studio. The room was lovely and had everything we needed - king bed, small kitchenette with mini fridge, and ice-cold AC. Loved the little patio space outside our room with picnic table! The hotel also provides beach chairs, which was great because we didn't need to bring our own. Check-in and check-out were done via text which was so simple and easy! No issues with parking either. The location can't be beat - direct access to the quiet beach across the street and just a short walk into town. The property is well-maintained and I loved all the florals & foliage - gorgeous lavender buzzing with bees outside our window! Maybe it was because we were there during the week instead of the weekend, but the place was packed full of families with little kids. Not at all what I expected from the hotel's marketing, which made it seem young, fun, and hip. We didn't bother going to the pool since it was a kid playground. Unit 8 was in between two other rooms and unfortunately we could hear everything on the other sides of the walls (lots of screaming kids). There were also people right outside of our window on the patio next door being loud until all hours of the night while we were trying to sleep, in complete disregard to the hotel's quiet hours policy. Even with the blinds down, I didn't feel like I had privacy from them, and having them right there felt invasive. I highly recommend booking one of the standalone units for better privacy. Lastly, Yelp showed that there was an "All Day Cafe" on the property but we could not locate it and gave up looking. Not a big deal, we walked into town for coffee and a bite to eat instead!

It never feels too busy- in fact it felt kind of empty. Soooo many families with young kids- staff was so good to them! Rooms were comfortable, simple and adequate for what we needed. One of my favorite amenities were all of the bonfire pits. We had a blast making smores and sipping wine by the fire as the night cooled. We will definitely be back and would recommend to all but especially families.

A family member has a medical condition that requires a specific type of mattress, so I called to ask a simple question about what kind of mattresses they offer. I was connected with a woman named Beth, who was shockingly rude and unprofessional. When I began explaining the situation, she literally said, "I don't have time for this," and then followed it with, "Are you making a reservation or not?" I was stunned. We were ready to spend a week here, but after being treated like an inconvenience for asking a basic, medically necessary question, there's no way I'd trust our family vacation to this place. I'm genuinely at a loss for words at how poorly I was treated. Also, I might like to add it takes a lot for me to leave a negative review. I think I've only ever left one other negative review on my account. Trying to support small local business has always been a priority of mine and I understand people have good days and bad days so I don't usually take two social media to post a negative review but this was over the top nasty. I felt I needed to do so. Not to mention, I took a screenshot. The phone call was only one minute, so the fact that she became so nasty and saying she shouldn't have time for this I'm flabbergasted.
