I didn’t love that dogs were allowed to swim in the pool. One guest was playing fetch with their dog in the water while I was there, and the pool ended up full of dog hair—which was pretty gross. When I asked about it, the guest said the staff told them it was allowed. Definitely a strange experience.

I absolutely love this property—everything is just so easy. The beach is only a 5-minute walk, or you can relax by the pool all day. It’s super clean and beautiful. The staff are lovely and always ready to help. Right across the road is an amazing restaurant called Birds on the Roof. The location makes it easy to get anywhere. Truly loved it!

I was in room 5 that’s right by the entrance to the motel and you heard all the outside noise. If you’re a light sleeper, that’ll be a problem.

Loved the courtyard, the pool area, and the location.

Everything - exceptional

Not much to say here, other than a tapping sound outside when it rained, but that did not disrupt our sleep at all.

Excellent location in the heart of Montauk with shops and eateries in close walking distance, as well as the beach! We ate at The Bird right across the street, which was divine! We also dined at Alimentari and Montauk Bake Shop. There are cute souvenir and gift store dotting the surrounding area, and we even bumped into a major celeb while grabbing coffee in town. Can't say who, or else that would blow his cover, but it was truly an amazing stay even though we were met with endless rain from the moment we stepped foot in the town until the second we left! That said, the comfort level at Daunt's was 10/10 - the bed was so relaxing and the sheets felt smooth, and smelled so clean. The team were beyond accommodating and were truly attentive and kind to us. This was our very first trip to Montauk and we came for my husband's birthday and they did everything to make us comfortable and well looked after. It was truly a 5-star experience and we would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Nothing it was all perfect.

Perfect location, near the beach and close to bars and restaurants and lovely walks.

The air heater / cooler system was noisy, but it wasn’t a problem really; I switched it off before sleeping.

I really liked it here, nice setting. Clean, simple room with stone floor. Excellent shower. Had great conversations with the people at check in & check out - really friendly place. Probably crazy busy in high season.

Amazing!

First impression was that the room didn't look like the pictures, on website. Call it good marketing in that the pictures had given me a higher expectation. But that's ok. 2nd: Couldn't cook 1st night upon my late arrival. However, next day I requested a pot and a sauce pan and was able to make light breakfast on forward. 3rd: I had brought meats to cook on the grill but since the grill is close to the pool (which had a big safety net covered) I had no access. My decision to choose this place was based on what is written on their online/website. I found it to be inconsistent. So that was disapointing but not a huge deal. 4th: There is no a key (mailbox) box to drop the keys if you check out early. I left at 5:30am and I had to leave the keys outside in the front door.

Very close to a shopping and a restaurant "strip." Walking distance to beach. Short drive to both hero park and lighthouse. Great staff and attentive. I can feel they wanted to please and be accomodating.

I loved the design features of the motel, and the fire pits were a nice touch. The restaurant had a great vibe, good food and the music was excellent as well.

Nothing.

This really was a gem of a find on our holiday, lovely place with exceptional facilities. They have gone out of their way to turn this from a motel to a boutique style hotel and it works! the communal fire pits were a real treat to and a great way to meet people over an afternoon drink. The breakfast voucher at Bird on the Roof was a great touch too.

Love that it’s pet friendly and the rooms have been updated and love the fire pit for guests to gather…wish room had coffee maker though…Love this place willl be back!

Nothing could be improved. Perfection.

We only stayed for one night after 4 nights in NYC. It wasn't enough! This place is a real gem, We loved Montauk and the road trip out of the city, before catching a flight home to London. The Rooms were cool & lovely, and the bed is probably the most comfortable bed, with the best bed sheets I've ever slept on! Absolutely dreamy! The outside area is super cute and I would have loved to stay longer to spend more time there! The owners are really helpful and gave us some great tips for food, sunset view and drinks for our one night stop. It was a magical night that will never be forgotten! Thank you!

Lovely property! Adorable room decorations , vintage chic, and very clean. Hotel staff very kind and helpful. I lost my credit card and the staff helped me find it. We’ll definitely be back. The owners also own restaurant across the street, which is equally adorable and yummy!

Just 1 min walk away from the beach. Room was very spacious and clean. Furniture, decoration and kitchen equipment stylish but not overdone. Bathroom was very clean as well. Beds very comfortable, slept very well on the mattresses. Check-in staff was friendly, competent and very helpful. We would return to the Albatros any time we stay on Long Island again.

The walls were kinda thin. We could very clearly hear our neighbors conversations, and I am sure they heard us too. We heard them very clearly partying until 200 am. The shower stall was kinda small. The sink water was extremely hot, but the shower was lukewarm. I like a hot shower so that was slightly disappointing. The housekeeper unlocked our door and walked into our room, never knocking. She seemed to believe we were supposed to be checked out, but we booked two days and weren’t due to leave until the next day. Simple misunderstanding I guess, but kinda rude. Good thing we weren’t undressing or something…and good thing we were there.

Our room was a good size and clean. There was a cute kitchenette with a table and two chairs, which was fantastic for eating our takeout. Some motel rooms we have been to in Montauk don’t have two chairs, so you end up eating on the bed or standing. The balcony was great and if it weren’t so cold I would have loved to have used it. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. We were walking distance to everything. The staff was very friendly. I really enjoyed the outside area, particularly the heated sitting area. This was my first time at Daunt’s and I will definitely be back.

This isn’t a typical motel. Daunts Albatross Motel is one of the most beautiful motels I’ve ever stayed at. It was very clean, the staff was so friendly & the location is just perfect. I typically don’t write reviews but Daunts deserve one. My friends and I think about coming back in spring and we will for sure book our stay at Daunts
