A 6-8 bedroom estate with heated pool, hot tub, chef's kitchen, and manicured grounds is the HQ for a Sloane-caliber weekend. East Hampton's proximity to Wölffer Estate Vineyard and Nick & Toni's makes this the perfect base for a golfer-foodie who appreciates both the course and the table. Pricing is estimated based on luxury Hamptons market rates for August peak season.

  • Heels and comfortable walking sandals
  • Swimsuit and cover-up for pool and beach

  • Sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat
  • Matching robes for the crew (optional but iconic)
  • Comfortable shoes for the photoshoot

Pro Tips

  • Book all restaurants and activities 3+ weeks ahead—August is peak Hamptons season and everything fills up fast.
  • Sloane's a golfer; if she wants to squeeze in 9 holes on Day 1 afternoon, Maidstone Club (East Hampton) is legendary, but it's private and requires a member invite.
  • The party bus pickup from the house is a game-changer—nobody worries about driving after the club, and it keeps the crew together.
  • Designate a treasurer early to track group expenses (lodging, activities, dinners). Use Splitwise to settle up the week after.
  • Bring a portable speaker for the pool deck—a curated playlist is half the vibe.
  • August in the Hamptons is hot and sunny; sunscreen is non-negotiable. Reapply after the beach and pool.
  • The best photo moments are golden hour on the dunes and sunset from the Surf Lodge dock—plan accordingly.
  • Sloane's a foodie; she'll notice if the restaurant choice is uninspired. Stick to the recs—they're all vetted and worth the reservation.
