The Baker House
East Hampton Hotel

RealCar headed east

leaving behind the city’s hum in search of something quieter. The destination: the Baker House 1650, one of the best hotels in the Hamptons, where history lingers gracefully among ivy-covered walls and manicured grounds.

As the road stretches from Manhattan, the energy shifts. With each mile onwards, tension loosens. In the Cadillac Escalade ESV, the ride becomes part of the escape. Cushioned in leather, with wide windows inviting sunlight and views of open fields, the vehicle itself seems to usher you into stillness. You don’t just travel—you transform.

Arriving at one of the best places to stay in the Hamptons, Baker House feels like stepping into a painting—carefully composed with heritage and intention. Like a countryside manor, the house greets you with warmth that’s both grand and intimate. Dating back to 1648, the home is one of East Hampton’s oldest. Yet every detail has been restored and refined. Interiors blend period charm with modern comfort: carved fireplaces, antique furnishings, and leaded-glass windows meet rain showers, luxe linens, and spa amenities.

Each room invites exploration. A library lined with books offers a cozy reading nook. A drawing room with velvet chairs and soft lighting becomes the backdrop for evening conversation. The scent of fresh-cut flowers lingers in the air, and the staff—warm, unobtrusive—makes the experience feel private.

With just seven rooms and suites, the intimacy here is unmatched. Rooms feature Frette linens, Matouk towels, and TVs tucked behind antique cabinetry. The property includes indoor and outdoor pools, a spa, and gardens ideal for quiet walks and reflection. It’s a place where time slows.

High tea at the Baker House is a signature moment. Served on the garden terrace or by the fireplace, it’s a pause of quiet indulgence. Delicate pastries, finger sandwiches, and fragrant teas arrive on tiered trays, evoking Old World charm.

East Hampton is worth exploring. Main Beach, a short walk away, offers Atlantic views. The village is dotted with boutiques, bookstores, and local favorites. For art lovers, the Pollock-Krasner House offers a look into the lives of two iconic painters.

But truthfully, you may not want to leave. Mornings start with gourmet breakfast: juice, house-made granola, seasonal fruit. Afternoons invite lounging or spa visits. Evenings call for a glass of wine as the sun sets over the gardens.

There’s a serenity here that’s difficult to describe. Light filtering through leaded-glass windows. The rustle of leaves. Lavender in the air. Each moment feels effortless.

Nature surrounds you. Cedar Point Park has hiking trails and a quiet beach. Amagansett offers rustic farm stands and tranquil sands. Nearby Sag Harbor charms with galleries, shops, and waterfront cafes.

Whether it’s romance, retreat, or inspiration you’re after—the Baker House answers. With beauty, grace, and quiet clarity.
