Westhampton Manor

If you like the posh hustle and bustle of Manhattan for an afternoon, but prefer to live the more tranquil luxury of the Hamptons lifestyle, then a stay at Westhampton Manor should certainly be on your agenda. The former home of composer Marvin Hamlish, this Westhampton Beach estate-turned-private-retreat lies across two glorious acres and remains isolated from unwanted distractions. Part of the Lauren Berger Collection, which specializes in characteristically stylish and highly exclusive homes for both short and long-term stays, Westhampton Manor is a calming symphony of crackling fireplaces, lakeside picnics, and heady appointments. Combining the comforts of a five-star hotel with the nuances of a well-run estate, Westhampton Manor features seven elegantly furnished bedrooms with separate quarters for staff and entourage, plus a private dock with ocean access, swimming pool, spa and sauna.
