Barlume Beach is set to open at 435 East Lake Drive in Montauk this summer, led by LDV Hospitality, with plans to be a place “where wellness, design, taste, connection, and endless nights come together.” Barlume Beach will feature a 19-key hotel, a beach club, a restaurant, and a marina.
Barlume Beach is LDV Hospitality’s second act in Montauk. Well-known already for its successful Scarpetta residency at Gurney’s Montauk Resort in addition to the re-opening of LDV at The Maidstone in 2024 in East Hampton, the debut of Barlume Beach marks the brand’s continued East End expansion.
Inspired by its Flatiron dining concept, Barlume, the Montauk hotel and beach club is an extension of the Barlume ethos of Mediterranean-style living. Barlume Beach is set on 40,000 square feet of grounds overlooking Montauk Harbor.
“Barlume Beach represents the next chapter for LDV Hospitality. We’ve spent years perfecting the art of the ‘La Dolce Vita’ dining experience, and now we are bringing that same soul to a full-scale beach club. We’ve layered in elements that speak to all the senses — from the chef-led culinary stations to a nightly musical residency that adds a sophisticated pulse to the hotel and beach club. It’s an evolution of everything we love about summer, bottled into one landmark destination,” said John Meadow, Founder and President of LDV Hospitality.
Designed by Studio Tre, Barlume Beach will be outfitted with tones of turquoise and golden yellow. The architecture is influenced by the Mediterranean Sea and aims to transport guests to Europe through its coastal design and Italian flair.
Meaning “glimmer” in Italian, Barlume reflects a “subtle, radiant way of living.” The restaurant offers all-day dining. By day, guests enjoy a Mediterranean-inspired menu from Chef Francesco Battisti, celebrating fresh coastal flavors. Transitioning into the evening, the signature “linner” bridges day and night. As night falls, the atmosphere shifts from relaxed to electric. Throughout the season, the hotel and beach club will welcome musical artists.
A curated food and beverage menu designed for sharing features favorites from Barlume’s Flatiron restaurant, including the Blue Crab Toast and Lobster Arrabbiata, while introducing new seasonal items such as a Lobster Roll, Spicy Fin de Cleire, and Plateau de Mer. Every seat — at the bar, beneath the tent, or at the firepit — holds a view of the water.
While at Barlume Beach, guests will enjoy experiences such as boat charters on Lake Montauk, and various wellness classes and programming will be offered throughout the season.
