Long before East Hampton became one of the world’s most sought-after coastal destinations, there was The Maidstone. Built in 1840 and named after the town’s original name, the hotel has welcomed generations of artists, travelers, tastemakers, and families—each leaving with memories that became part of its story.

Today, LDV Hospitality has thoughtfully reimagined this historic landmark for a new generation, preserving its heritage while introducing a fresh perspective on boutique luxury.

The result is effortlessly Hamptons.

Historic architecture meets beautifully curated interiors. Thoughtful service replaces formality. Every detail feels intentional—from Frette linens and Santa Maria Novella amenities to locally inspired artwork and the quiet comforts that transform a hotel stay into something personal.

Days unfold naturally here. Morning coffee beneath the trees. Afternoons spent on East Hampton’s iconic beaches with complimentary chairs and umbrellas waiting for you. Evenings shared over exceptional cuisine, where conversation lingers long after the last course.

This is luxury without excess. Sophisticated without pretension. A place that feels as welcoming as it is refined.

Recognized by Condé Nast Traveler, The Michelin Guide, and Hotels Above Par, The Maidstone continues to define what modern hospitality looks like—not by chasing trends, but by remaining true to what has always mattered most: genuine service, thoughtful design, and experiences guests carry with them long after they’ve returned home.

Because the best hotels don’t simply give you somewhere to stay.

They become part of your story.
