Did you know Travel and Leisure has described Shelter Island House as “encapsulating the perfect coastal hideaway” and that we have a certificate of excellence from Trip Advisor! Well, we are certainly thankful and could not agree more. We get a thrill and a whole lot of gratification when we see our client reviews with comments like “The holiday weekend we spent at The Shelter Island House was lovely. We felt that we were part of a small, caring family during our stay.” And “beautiful accommodations in an amazing location. The staff was very attentive and provided great recommendations of things to do on the island. Or “Excellent modern amenities and a wonderful tavern on the premises.”

Fear not that the Examiner.com put us on the “Summer B&B Bucket list” or that Wicked good Travel Tips suggests we are “Better than a hole in one”, it will not go to our heads. We will simply raise the bar, step up our game and claim our bragging rights that Vogue reported how celebrity Jessica Chastain stayed at our “traditional East Coast–style Shelter Island House and spent her days reading on the hotel’s wicker furniture–decorated porch and biking through the trees down to the beach.” And…that Newsday, Long Island and NYC’s News source mentioned that “Shelter Island House excels in outdoor seating — there’s always another porch, patio or deck around the corner as well as a pool, and those pétanque courts.”

So, if you want bragging rights of a most excellent getaway at a fabulous hotel, then join us at Shelter Island House like our guests report “A beautiful place to escape to from NYC” with “Wonderful Accommodations”!
