The Hamptons has a rhythm all its own. The light shifts, the crowds ebb and flow, and with each new season, the East End reveals a different side of itself. Over the years, weâve found that some of our most treasured memories werenât made in the height of summer, but in the quiet, in-between moments â a golden hour walk through empty streets, a chilly sunset at the beach with blankets in tow, the first fire crackling in the fireplace.
Thatâs what inspired Hamptons Homes and Seasons. We wanted to create something that felt a little like a keepsake, a little like a love letter â a way to capture the essence of each season here, from fallâs cozy rituals to winterâs stillness, springâs soft bloom, and summerâs unmistakable buzz. Think of these guides as a way to slow down, savor, and see the Hamptons the way locals do: season by season, postcard by postcard.
This is the very first edition, and it feels right that it begins with fall â a time when the pace eases, the villages glow in golden light, and the East End feels both nostalgic and alive. Inside, youâll find our favorite local traditions, harvest festivals, cozy corners, restaurant picks, Thanksgiving rituals, and the little details that make autumn here so magical.
And because youâre part of our immediate community, youâre getting a first look before we share it anywhere else. đ
We hope this inspires you to experience the Hamptons in a new way â to collect your own âpostcardsâ from this special place, one season at a time.
With love,
Jenna & Joe
