The summer has come and gone, but that doesn’t mean there’s not time to plan a visit out east. A weekend trip to the Hamptons in the early fall can be the best time out there, and you don’t have to deal with the swarms of summer vacationers and you might actually be able to get a decent dinner reservation—plus, the weather is still ideal. There’s surprisingly scarce inventory when it comes to finding luxe hotels out east, but luckily, we’ve done the work for you. Below, see the top spots to book for an autumn Hamptons retreat.

Gurney’s Montauk Resort & Spa
Gurney’s is the only resort open year-round in Montauk, and it’s right on the beach. Every single one of the 146 rooms has ocean views, and they also have a special Endless Summer program until the end of September, so guests can still partake in all the seasonal programming like wellness classes, beach bonfires, live music and DJ performances and more, for rates from $495 a night Sundays through Thursdays. For later in the fall, rates go down to from $395. Gurney’s is also one of the biggest resorts out east; there are multiple restaurants (including Scarpetta and Tillie’s), plus a cocktail bar and beach club. The Seawater Spa is also one of the best in the Hamptons, with a Finnish rock sauna, Russian steam room and Swiss shower, plus an indoor-outdoor saltwater pool with insane views of the ocean. 290 Old Montauk Highway, Montauk.

Topping Rose House
Topping Rose House might be one of the most luxurious hotels in the Hamptons, and it’s also one of the few that’s open year round.
