Reviews of Daunts Albatross Motel 2 stars

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 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.

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

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.

Cool retro motel with beachy decor and super nice staff! I would definitely recommend it for the price we paid!

Everything - exceptional

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.

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

My family and I had a wonderful stay. Clean and pet friendly. I will definitely be back for another stay.

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

Nothing it was all perfect.

Location

Too plain, it needs updates

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.

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

People were amazing and the restaurant was great! Was expecting a cheap motel but it felt more like a cute inn. Pleasantly surprised.

Amazing!

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.

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.

Tim who welcomed us could easily be front of house at the Plaza.

Nice staff

Bed was uncomfortable electricity didn’t work. Room was extremely rustic
