The DNA

The Rockaway Hotel
A Breezy, Design-Forward Escape Where Surf Meets City


Modern Coastal Cool, Just Outside Manhattan

Perched along the shores of the Atlantic, The Rockaway Hotel brings a sophisticated new rhythm to New York’s historic beach community. Its six-story silhouette rises gently from the landscape, echoing the zinc-clad homes nearby while offering a contemporary interpretation of seaside living.


Laid-Back Vibes, Elevated Design

Inside, it’s all about effortless ease. Think 1960s surf culture, translated through an upscale lens: concrete floors, cane accents, linen sofas, and wool throws that whisper comfort without excess. Lush greenery brings life to common spaces, while rooms offer expansive views of the ocean or NYC skyline.


More Than a Beach Hotel

Sure, there’s a rooftop restaurant with panoramic vistas, and yes, the outdoor pool and bar are dreamy—but The Rockaway Hotel doesn’t stop there. A carefully curated art collection anchors the space in culture, while its deep connection to the local creative and surf communities gives the hotel real soul.


DNA Hotels Verdict

The Rockaway Hotel hits the sweet spot between urban escape and seaside sanctuary. It’s chic but chill, stylish yet grounded. For design lovers who crave a dose of salt air with their skyline views, this is your new favorite spot. Trust us—it’s worth the subway ride.
