The more things change, the more they stay the same. And no matter how many beautiful places in the world will be open this summer, one sure thing is that your favorite celebs will be in residence in the Hamptons.  Otherwise known as the playground for the financially enriched and genetically gifted.  Celebs in the Hamptons; yes, they are just like us.

Christy Brinkley- Sunset Beach Hotel

Even though she has a mansion in East Hampton, the supermodel still likes to get away sometimes. Sunset Beach hotel is the perfect spot for a little relaxation not too far from home. One of Andre Balazs’ properties’, the hotel exudes glamour despite the sandy kick-off-your-shoes vibe. This is the place for lounging on the beach with a drink in your hand while the kids go water skiing. A lovely French bistro with the best lattes and cocktails makes for a perfect treat at any time of day. At night a DJ winds up the beats, but the location on Shelter Island is just secluded enough to keep the model all to herself.

Gwyneth Paltrow- Nick and Toni’s

You might think the supposed proponent of the Hampton’s diet wouldn’t be caught dead at an Italian restaurant. But that just goes to show how addicting Nick and Toni’s is. The family oriented East Hampton staple is a favorite of the star who regularly dines there when she isn’t watching her carbs. Everything on the menu is delectable, and the seasonal menu is farm fresh. Even though there are a million good restaurants in the Hampton’s, Nick and Toni’s is the kind of place you can’t stop coming back to.

Leonardo Dicaprio- $5 Million rental in Wainscott

Some celebs in the Hamptons are out and about. Some would rather their vacations not be photographed by the paparazzi. Dicaprio falls into the latter category, renting a luxury villa in Wainscott for 5 grand a night. The villa with a private pool and hot tub has a fireplace in the Master bedroom, and a marble kitchen perfect for entertaining, or cooking for just one. Sun loungers and a giant outdoor chess board ensure no one goes board. And the easy walking location to the rest of The Hamptons makes it a perfect place to hangout in between the beach and the party.

Renee Zellweger – Le Bilboquet

Zellweger is another woman about town in The Hamptons where she lives year round. When on and off duty, she can be seen brunching at the famed, Le Bilboquet in Sag Harbor. This just happens to be one of Galavante’s top 11 restaurants in the Hamptons.  The bistro on the water is no beachside clam shack. When they opened they quickly became known to send away even the most well known of billionaires for wearing sandals. But the posh dress code is reflective of the elevated taste the restaurant has. The Cajun Chicken is a famous dish, alongside their burrata and delicious cocktails. The bar is equally as inviting as the tables, and Zellweger is known to come with groups, as well as in smaller crowds.

Beyonce, Jay-Z and Jack Dorsey – Luxury Yacht 

It’s true that Dorsey is a celebrity in his own right.  At Galavante, we quote him often, as it’s true that it takes 10 years to become an overnight success. But when your a hitter enough to be on a boat with Bey and Jay, you are definitely someone special. Last year the three and the couple’s kids escaped the pandemic on land by casting off to enjoy some peace and quiet off the coast of Sag Harbor. A boat is the only place they can get some privacy.  So you can bet, it’s where celebs in the Hamptons will be this summer.  You too can be on a boat, because we have a guy for that.
