Guests rave about this waterfront boutique hotel's stunning views, luxurious beds, and excellent location near Greenport, with many highlighting the on-site food truck and helpful service. While many recent stays are perfect, occasional issues regarding room amenities—such as broken appliances, missing toiletries, and outdated security features like lacking phones or USB outlets—have negatively impacted some experiences.
We stayed here for one night in the off season (January)--it was frigid outside but our room was incredibly cozy and welcoming. I never write reviews, but I truly loved this hotel so much and had an amazing experience. Room was warm and chic, truly the BEST hotel bed that my husband and I have ever slept in (and we are picky!), great espresso machine that was ACTUALLY easy to use, loved the Malin + Goetz products in the bathroom. 10/10, can't wait to come back at a warmer time of year!
Our stay at the Shoals was the perfect experience for a cozy and comfortable setting to relax and enjoy the views. The rooms are beautifully decorated and spacious with top choice amenities. We cannot wait to visit again.
We stayed at The Shoals Suites for a quick weekend getaway to kick off the New Year. Check-in was easy and efficient, and Mario was great. The location is a big plus, super convenient to the wineries and restaurants in Greenport. The room itself was comfortable and nicely laid out, with plenty of space to relax, eat, and watch TV. That said, a few things felt oddly overlooked. There was no in-room safe, no phone, and no USB outlets at all, which feels pretty outdated at this point. We were glad we had adapters with us. The room itself is modern which was even more confusing. The kitchenette was large and had the basics—cutlery, glassware, a coffee machine, sink, and fridge but no microwave. There was a mini oven and stovetop, but neither worked, and there wasn’t even a pot provided, so they didn’t really serve a purpose. Noise was also an issue; you could clearly hear foot traffic in the mornings, which made sleeping in difficult. Housekeeping and maintenance were where things really fell short. We arrived around 5:30 PM, just before the 6 PM check-in cutoff, dropped our bags, and went straight out to dinner. When we returned, we realized the room was missing basic amenities—no soap, shampoo, or body wash (just a bottle of conditioner), a tissue box with only two tissues left, and a clogged bathroom sink. The toilet paper quality was also surprisingly poor. Unfortunately, by that time the office was closed, so we weren’t able to have these issues addressed. We were also disturbed by a couple of loud knocks on the door despite having the “Do Not Disturb” sign up. Both times, when we opened the door, no one was there. One instance appeared to be a housekeeping cart, and the other may have been related to checkout, even though we had already confirmed an 11:00 AM checkout and it was only 10:00 AM. Overall, the location and room layout were solid, but the experience was let down by small simple details that shouldn’t be missed. With better attention to housekeeping, maintenance, and guest privacy, this could have been a much better stay.
Had the BEST experience at The Shoals!!! Stayed here for the last weekend of summer and it was perfect! 10 min to downtown Greenport. Right on the water!! They even have a food truck on site and it was amazing. Clean, staff is so friendly. Will DEF be back??
An incredible stay at The Shoals in North Fork! This waterfront boutique hotel/botel is the perfect spot to dock your boat and unwind. The rooms are beautifully designed — clean, modern, and super comfortable with a fully stocked kitchen! We loved waking up to the patio with the water views a few feet away. The on-site food truck, Maizeat, is a total standout — the food was fresh, creative, and absolutely delicious. Great bonus: a free light breakfast every morning! The location is ideal — just minutes from Greenport and other charming North Fork towns. The property is kid- and pet-friendly, with a relaxed, welcoming vibe and amazing service from start to finish. Between the stunning sunsets, cozy outdoor spaces, and the convenience of docking your boat right there, The Shoals offers a truly unique and memorable experience. Already planning our return!
If you're looking for tranquility, spacious room and water views, The Shoals is for you! It was peaceful and no problems occurred when we stayed here. Breakfasts were served/delivered in your room daily. It's located few minutes from Greenport and super close to wineries!
This hotel is a hidden GEM ? on the Northfork, it was an amazing place to stay. The rooms are very well appointed, clean, and spacious! We highly recommend!! If you're looking for a place to stay - look no further. Melissa at the front desk was super friendly at check in as well as breakfast the next morning. She was very helpful with tips for things to do in the area. The coffee was actually really good (which is rare for hotels). We had a late nice snack at the food truck, food was great! The vibe was lovely in the evening. Just an overall great spot to relax.
I had a wonderful stay at the Shoals! The rooms were gorgeous complete with an efficiency kitchen, coffee maker and lovely shower. It’s also the BEST location! My husband and I took a water taxi from the Shoal’s dock to Shelter Island one night that was nothing short of magical. Food truck on site is also incredible — amazing small bites, delicious flavors and fun cocktails.
I absolutely loved my stay at The Shoals Hotel! The room was adorable and thoughtfully designed — cozy yet stylish. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the bathroom was a great size, which made getting ready super easy. I really appreciated all the little touches in the kitchenette — everything you need is provided, which made it feel like a home away from home. One of my favorite parts was the breakfast bag delivered right to your door each morning — such a cute and thoughtful detail! The merch in the gift shop is also really well-curated; I wanted to buy everything. The owner is super cool and welcoming, and the food? Amazing. Huge shoutout to the chef — seriously, kudos! Can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and charming stay.
I stayed at The Shoals in March and was blown away by the experience. The location is perfect — right on the water, with stunning views and just minutes from Southold’s great restaurants and a short drive to Greenport. We stayed in a Boardwalk Suite, which had everything you could need, including a full kitchen, spacious living area, and a private patio. The rooms are absolutely gorgeous — modern, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed with a coastal chic design. The Great Room is also a standout. It's a beautifully designed space with a bar and plenty of room to relax or gather with friends. The staff couldn’t have been more welcoming or helpful throughout my stay. I visited in the off-season but can’t wait to come back in warmer weather to fully experience everything this beautiful property has to offer.
