Daunt’s Albatross Motel
Just 100 feet from the ocean, our 24-room hotel, pool, courtyard, and café are a thread connecting past and present, and a welcoming home base for exploring the natural beauty of Montauk.
Stay With Us
Three generations of Daunts have been welcoming guests to Montauk since 1977. Whether you’re joining us for a relaxing break or an adventure, everything you need is here. Lounge by our saltwater swimming pool, gather friends for an outdoor BBQ, take a surf lesson, go for a hike or bike ride, or simply watch the sunset—we know all the best spots.
How It Started
In the early 70s, Frances and Rich Daunt fell in love with the sleepy beach town of Montauk. They bought a small bungalow and found themselves hosting more family and friends than their home could fit. In 1977, they found a way to invite more people: they purchased The Albatross Motel and our family’s hospitality journey began.
The Bird
Just across the street and now a part of the Daunt’s Albatross family, The Bird is a come-as-you-are eatery serving classic favorites and creative cocktails from morning to evening.
Group Gatherings
Our 24-room hotel, pool, courtyard, and restaurant are a wonderful backdrop for group gatherings. From management offsites and product launches to weddings and special occasions, we love sharing our space to support collaboration and connection. Whatever your vision, we can help you bring it to life.
