Montauk may be a popular beach destination but it is not lacking in tourists vacationing during the winter months. If you want to steer away from the summer crowd, visit Montauk from October to March. Winter vacation packages can be good deals because room rates are extremely affordable during this low season. Many Montauk hotels close for the winter, but there are some that stay open all year round, including The Crow's Nest, Montauk Manor, Royal Atlantic Beach Resort, Daunt's Albatross Motel, Windward Shores Ocean Resort, Gurney's Resort & Spa, Kenny's Tipperary, and Sail Inn. There are many things to do in Montauk even when there is no sun. Visit Gosman's Dock at Montauk Harbor and check out the little shops and restaurants nearby. Views from the Montauk Point Lighthouse are stunning no matter what time of the year. Climb to the top if the lighthouse is open, or walk along the rocks during low tide to see wintering seals.

Montauk, Long Island is not short on luxurious accommodation, but there are three Montauk hotels that ultimately stand out: the Montauk Manor, the Montauk Yacht Club, and Gurney's Inn.

Stay at Montauk Hotels and Tour the Montauk Daylily Garden
Home to more than 600 varieties of daylilies, the Montauk Daylily Garden on Second House Road is a must-see attraction when visiting Long Island, New York. For gardening buffs who are interested in hybrids or for nature lovers, the Montauk Daylily Garden will truly amaze you with its extraordinary colorful perennials as well as wonderful views of the Fort Pond freshwater lake. You can stay at Montauk hotels in the area, or snag one of the 10 rooms at the Avalon Lakefront Resort Motel inside the daylily garden. Apart from its flowers, the Garden also grows kiwi, pepper, tomato, rhubarb, and persimmon crops, from which jam and jelly are produced and sold. Tourists also visit the garden for its Bob Ross oil painting workshops, where one can practice applying wet paint on a wet canvas. Before leaving Montauk, purchase a designer gene seed from the garden so you can create your own hybrids at home.
Montauk Hotels, Bars and Nightlife
Looking isolated at the end of Long Island is the small fishing town of Montauk, which comes surprisingly alive after dark with its vibrant nighlife. Montaukers love to fish, eat and drink, and when bars and pubs stay open until the wee hours of the morning during summers, party goers get into the action. Visitors staying at Main Street Montauk hotels can sample the 35 different varieties of beer at The 668 Gig Shack, which also features alfresco dining and live musical performances during weekends. For a traditional Irish fare of shepherds pie and lamb stew head to OMurphys Pub on Edgemere Road and indulge on huge portions of burgers and steaks and Guinness and Stella on tap. Montauk is famous for its beautiful sunset which you can view from the Montaukets outdoor daiquiri bar, or Nick's on the beach which is also popular for it's dance parties. Lenny's on the Dock offers its guests a pleasurable waterfront dining and drinking experience as they watch charter boats heading back to the pier.
