The Pridwin Hotel Returns to Shelter Island

On New York’s Shelter Island, a historic hotel has reopened its doors

Resort on New York's Shelter Island.

Cape Resorts, renowned for preserving the hospitality of bygone eras, has recently reopened the refreshed Pridwin for the summer season—a luxurious and whimsical waterfront resort located on New York’s Shelter Island. Built in 1927 and managed by the same family for over 60 years, the property has undergone extensive renovations and now features 33 rooms and 16 private cottages, all situated on seven acres of beautifully restored shoreline. True to Cape Resorts’ affinity for history—the boutique hotel company also owns the two oldest resorts in Cape May, which they restored— the hotel’s design seamlessly combines nostalgic playfulness with modern elegance. The main lobby doubles as a fully stocked library with board games, while an adjacent “history hall” features archival photographs, property signage, room keys, and hotel mementos. A wealth of high-end offerings include a fitness space, spa, and sundries shop, and the three-meal dining room offers locally caught seafood, produce, and East End wines. The property’s eclectic mix of old and new design elements creates a timeless seaside resort atmosphere, evoking classic Adirondack summer camps. With its charming design, luxurious amenities, and prime location, the Pridwin is an ideal destination for guests seeking a relaxing and memorable retreat.
