Marram

The DNA

Marram Montauk – Dune Grass Dreams and Seaside Stillness
Barefoot Luxury on the Edge of the Atlantic

Some hotels sit on the beach. Marram becomes part of it. Named after the wild dune grass that clings to Montauk’s wind-swept coast, this barefoot-luxury retreat folds into its landscape with organic grace. Waves, wood, and weathered beauty define the tone here—not polished perfection, but something far rarer: ease. Perched just steps from the Terrace surf break and a short barefoot wander from Montauk town, Marram feels less like a resort and more like a long exhale you didn’t know you needed.


A Frame Made for Slowing Down

Marram’s layout opens directly to the Atlantic—no manicured lawns, no velvet ropes. Instead: sand underfoot, wind in your hair, and a direct line of sight to the sea. The buildings are low and warm, a modernist nod to beach cottages of another era. Every choice here is deliberate and elemental. Neutral tones, raw textures, and natural materials guide the design language. Nothing distracts. Everything invites you to settle in and stay awhile.


Interiors That Speak in Textures

Inside, rooms unfold with quiet confidence. Hand-textured plaster walls and exposed white oak beams create a space that feels crafted, not constructed. Linen drapes catch the ocean breeze. Handwoven rugs soften the rhythm underfoot. It’s a palette of sand, driftwood, and seafoam—no sharp edges, no noise. Furnishings are built from reclaimed wood—once part of local homes and fishing boats—infusing each room with a sense of soul. Bathrooms echo alfresco simplicity, pairing mauve and grey marble with open piping and rain showers. It feels like bathing outside, without leaving the calm inside. And with options for courtyard hideaways or oceanfront balconies, the space matches your pace—whether you want to wake to the Atlantic’s roar or retreat into green quiet.


Experiences That Restore, Not Entertain

Marram doesn’t fill your schedule. It clears it. The hotel’s wellness offerings lean into soulful calm:

  • Surf lessons at dawn with local instructors who know the break

  • Sound baths with singing bowls that vibrate through the body like low tide

  • Salt cave therapy, tarot readings, and energy healing that feel more intuitive than indulgent

It’s not spa-chic or wellness-branded—it’s elemental grounding, delivered with sincerity and space.


Food That Follows the Breeze

On-site, Mostrador Marram serves Latin American coastal cuisine with warmth and flair. It’s the kind of café where grilled local fish meets house-made empanadas, where seating is open-air, and the soundtrack is the sea. Everything is light, unfussy, deeply flavorful. It’s the culinary equivalent of the hotel’s design ethos: simple, soulful, and honest.


DNA Hotels Verdict

Marram is not a scene—it’s a sanctuary. It understands that the beach isn’t a backdrop; it’s a rhythm. From its textured interiors to its elemental experiences, every moment is curated to help you feel more connected—to place, to time, to yourself. In a town that often shifts between surf-town scruff and high-gloss getaway, Marram finds the in-between: graceful, grounded, and quietly transformational.
