Came here with a friend for a brief respite from city life- and it was! Wonderful hotel, very quiet and yet lively in the common areas when you want it to be (ie for eve cocktails etc), they have a pool which was a surprise for a smaller B&B and numerous luxurious touches (ex: music tuned into your room, etc),...

Since Maison Blanche came under new ownership and was reviewed favorably in the Times, I had wanted to stay there. Shelter Island is the most beautiful place but hotel options are somewhat limited. Maison Blanche is fresher and cleaner than some of the other hotels on the island. It is a welcome addition, and worth considering even if you will... More

Me and my girlfriend decided to have a little getaway (our first together) so we stayed at the hotel from a Friday night to Sunday over a weekend in April. I had booked room 5 using their website. But when we arrived they placed us in room 10. When I told the woman about booking room 5, I was informed... More

We stayed at La Maison Blanche and made the reservation through Lot18 which is a high end wine site. I have been going to SI for thirty five years and was thrilled to be staying somewhere new. We arrived at dinner time on a Friday night. We were shown to our room which was not part of the main house.... More

We just got back from our weekend at La Maison Blanche and it could not have been better. The property is lovely and well located - just a 5min or so walk from the beach and on a quiet street. I ran in the neighborhood both Saturday and Sunday mornings on empty, peaceful roads. The hotel itself is a beautiful... More

Absolutely the best place to escape the madness of life. La Maison Blanche is addictive. We have thought many times of buying a home on Shelter Island but we will not--- because we love to stay here! It truly feels like our home! The staff, the food, the bar, the rooms, the amazingly relaxed vibe. Clearly owned by people who... More

We stayed at La Maison Blanche for a Friday- Sunday in April. Making the reservation a while back wasn’t great (first we were booked, then we weren’t, then we were, etc.) so we were a little worried, but once we got there, we were relieved. We arrived later at night, around 9:30pm and were greeted by a really nice girl... More
