The Seawater Spa at Gurney’s Resorts
Montauk local Maude Gurney’s generosity of spirit sparked an idea in 1926, and she set out to share her beautiful seaside home with the rest of the world. She opened Gurney’s Inn, an intimate 20-unit hotel that captivated generations of beach goers. The result became Gurney’s Resorts, a destination hub for wellness and pampering.
A nominee for Conde Nast Traveler’s 2024 Reader’s Choice Awards, Gurney’s Resorts has stretched beyond its humble beginnings to become a wellness ecosystem for all visitors. The Seawater Spa stretches 30,000 sq. ft. to create the ultimate, one-of-a-kind wellness experience.
