About this venue

The Pridwin is a historic waterfront hotel on Shelter Island, New York, lovingly restored by Cape Resorts. Originally opened in 1927, the property has been updated with a design-forward aesthetic that honors its heritage while providing modern comfort across 49 guest rooms, many with sweeping views of Peconic Bay.

The hotel features an on-site restaurant serving seasonal, locally sourced cuisine, a waterfront pool, a private dock, and manicured grounds that extend to the water's edge.
