"A wellness retreat may not be the obvious wedding pick, but this serene, gated haven east of New York City proves otherwise with evergreen-dotted grounds and water features that immediately dial down the noise. Minimalist white interiors and Japandi-style accommodations keep the tone elegant for vows, while an extensive wellness program—sound bathing journeys, fully customized massages, Biologique Recherche facials, and daily yoga—keeps guests blissed out. The culinary team serves refined, seasonal dishes using organic produce, some grown right on the property." - Christina Liao
"The Hamptons’ first wellness retreat emphasizes intuitive, basic self-care across sunlit barns and blond-wood studios with deep-soaking Japanese tubs, gentle morning yoga, beach strolls, and an anything-goes pace (lounging by the pool is valid self-care), all designed to help guests learn to live in ways that make them happier and healthier." - CNT Editors
