Year after year, summers in the Hamptons slip away too quickly. There\u2019s so much shopping to be done at seasonal pop-up shops, and so many soir\u00e9es to attend, that by mid-summer one can feel like the season is already fading away. But this year, take the opportunity to switch up your usual weekend plans to schedule something truly memorable and exquisitely unique.<\/p>\n

Whether you take a mini staycation weekend or perhaps extend your getaway into the work week, the three-bedroom cottage at Gurney\u2019s Montauk will make you feel like you stepped onto the set of a Nancy Meyers film. Or, if you need some peace and tranquility, there\u2019s the Shou Sugi Ban House to deliver a full wellness experience. Instead of lunch or dinner out why not bring a feast to the beach, courtesy Hamptons Clambake, or indulge in a picnic planned and executed by the Plaza Hotel. Plus, take an excursion to see where the wine you\u2019ve been sipping all summer long is made at the W\u00f6lffer Estate Vineyard. Finally, to make sure your itinerary goes smoothly, avoid traffic headaches by flying on a Blade helicopter.<\/p>\n

Let this serve as your reminder and your permission to make the most of your time out East and take advantage of the best the Hamptons has to offer. Go. Indulge.<\/p>\n
