Accommodations

Lodging in the Hamptons sells out quickly, so make sure to book your room early! As the Festival falls on a holiday weekend (Columbus Day), many hotels will have 2- to 4-night minimums. There are no chain hotels, mostly smaller inns and bed & breakfasts. (Check out Airbnb and VRBO.) Before you book, check the maps to make sure you are not staying too far from the Festival venue(s).
