Why owners in The Hamptons choose Pinnacle Path
Most owners in The Hamptons lose 20–35% of their potential revenue to the same three issues: under-priced shoulder weeks, weak channel mix, and slow guest response times. We rebuild all three from day one. Our revenue team re-prices every listing daily against Hampton Classic demand, comparable RevPAR in East Hampton and Southampton, and forward booking pace.
Compliance is handled in-house. Suffolk County STR registration and NY State sales tax handled. You receive a single monthly statement, gross-to-net, with every fee itemised — no opaque commissions, no surprise deductions.
Where we operate in The Hamptons
We focus on the The Hamptons neighbourhoods where premium short-stay demand actually clears: East Hampton, Southampton, Amagansett, Sag Harbor, Bridgehampton, Montauk. Each district has its own pricing curve, guest profile and minimum-stay logic — a one-size-fits-all calendar leaves money on the table.
If your residence sits outside these areas we'll still review it, but only onboard when we're confident we can deliver above-market RevPAR.
How we price The Hamptons short-term rentals
The May – Sep window does the heavy lifting in The Hamptons, but the 18–32% ADR uplift our owners typically see comes from the shoulder months. We use a proprietary model that blends competitor pricing, booking-window pace, length-of-stay mix and event signals (Hampton Classic, summer Manhattan exodus, wine season and Memorial to Labor Day) — re-running every 24 hours.
Minimum-stay rules flex by season: tighter in May, relaxed in low-demand weeks to backfill gaps. The result is occupancy of around 80% blended across the year on a typical The Hamptons portfolio property.
