Gorgeous accommodations. So pretty, clean, nice pool and seating area. Complimentary coffee station in lobby (with actual good coffee!). Friendly staff! Loved it! Highly recommend staying here.

My partner and I stayed at this beautiful property last year and fell in love with the place. It's now become our annual destination for my birthday weekend with our reservation coming up again this coming August. Can't wait! We found our Queen room, located on the second floor, to be perfect with a beautiful view of the pool area the rear property grounds. Upon arrival, we had a little problem with one of the pieces of furniture, but maintenance came up right away and fixed it. Our memorable weekend included breakfast sandwiches from Stars Cafe (tiny place in town, but good food) and dinners at SALT Waterfront Bar & Grill and Vine Street Cafe. Both meals were perfect. Relaxing days were spent on Crescent Beach where we rented lounge chairs and umbrellas. There is a bar/restaurant just across the road where we were able to purchase some "adult beverages". Days were spent relaxing and listening to the waves lapping up onto shore, which made us feel like we were on a tropical island. While a bit pricey, treat yourself and your loved one(s) to at least a weekend getaway at the Shelter Island House on Shelter Island.

This was a few years ago, but I had a bad impression of the woman at the front desk.When I checked in, I was talking to my boyfriend through a screen, but he couldn't even make a reservation for the restaurant I had ordered, and there was no explanation about the facilities in the room.Because of the coronavirus pandemic, I guess there weren't any proper workers.

The room I booked was over $400 in October-I thought it would be worth it because of the advertised fire place. The fire place can’t be used-it does not have a gas insert and it can’t burn wood either? We were offered $ 50 off, but it’s not the point. False advertisement. Also our room #14 is right next to the kitchen-we could literally hear conversations through the wall-it was crazy. I’m not sure why they didn’t think of sound when building this “suite” which is really a room. On a very positive note, the place is very clean and kept up, the continental breakfast was nice, the bed and linens great, the shower in the room was awesome but you could still here people talking in that space, Just not what I expected. Maybe the other rooms are more sound-proof. I would have asked for another room if we were staying more than one night. Ask before you book. I read trip advisor reviews to figure out where to stay-so that is why I’m reviewing this place. It is quite pricey and should be worth it.

I’m almost ashamed to say that although I have lived most of my life on Long Island I had never visited Shelter Island before. To celebrate my birthday we went to Shelter Island for three days and two nights. Having read reviews for the Shelter Island House - it sounded like it was exactly what we were looking for, and we were not disappointed. It is very well kept and our king sized room was nicely appointed and very clean and up to date. The bed was extremely comfortable. Suzanne the owner was welcoming and so nice to speak with. It’s in a good location as the Island is only 4 miles by 2 miles. They have a very nice continental breakfast with juice, coffee, yogurt and pastries. Great way to start the day. We will be back to the Shelter Island House, it was such a nice visit.

The Shelter Island House is beautiful! The front desk people are friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and professional. The hotel is walking distance to beautiful beaches and good food. Amazing for a weekend getaway. Looking forward to going back!

Last minute stay for 2 nights room was great. People were so nice. Although the restaurant was closed they were very helpful. I definitely recommend.

This small hotel felt uncrowded even though it was sold out. They have a kind staff, clean hotel rooms and common areas, plenty of fresh towels for the pool and beach chairs and umbrellas to bring to the beach. Thanks for a perfect stay at Shelter Island.

Shelter Island House is a wonderful establishment. The resort was conveniently located. Sunset Beach just minutes away walking distance. The resort's grounds very welcoming. The pool area was very relaxing. We also enjoyed the outdoor setting areas, especially with a nice glass of wine! Our room was clean and very comfortable. However, I should say the back outdoor lights kept me up a good part of the night. Maybe the next time I would bring eye mask covers. On the other hand, the staff was very attentive, accommodating, and friendly. The breakfast was light but pleasant. My husband and I would definitely return.

A beautiful, quaint property for a lovely weekend getaway. My husband and I really enjoyed our time here - it was quiet, relaxing and very soothing. The birds chirping outside are such a treat and the property overall has really good vibes. The bed and sheets were very comfy. We explored the Island and Ram Island - visited beaches that felt private and biked our way around town. I 10/10 recommend. The bikes included were a great gesture but we rented our own for our longer haul bike plans. The staff is very kind especially the manager and Jimmy! Jimmy was very accommodating during dinner and just wanted us to have a great evening. It was very special and specific attention that most places can never offer.

I really only went to the restaurant, 18 Bay. Did not check out the rooms. 18 Bay is STILL my favorite place to dine!

Ian and Suzanne bent over backward to make our wedding was a dream come true. We rented all rooms and the West Neck guesthouse. It felt intimate and the guests loved the decor, experience, convenience and “home away from home” feeling. I could not recommend this hotel more!
