Rent the right Hamptons house and your birthday becomes a weekend-long festival. With an eight-bedroom estate that sleeps 8–16, you can stage a private version of the East End’s greatest hits—beach, pool, chef’s table, and a golden-hour afterparty your friends will talk about all year.

Friday Arrival: Champagne Welcome + Locavore Dinner

  • Poolside reception: Pop chilled rosé or champagne on arrival; pair with Montauk oysters and sushi platters from Sen (Sag Harbor).
  • Chef-catered dinner: Book Elegant Affairs or a private chef for a seasonal farm-to-table menu—think Peconic Bay scallops, local produce, and a statement cake.
  • Ambient soundtrack: Solo guitarist at dusk or a low-key house DJ to set the mood.

Saturday Morning: Beach Club Energy + Brunch on the Terrace

  • Brunch spread: Lobster eggs Benedict, fruit towers, and Hampton Coffee Co. espresso on the patio.
  • Beach time: Head to Coopers Beach (Southampton) or Sagg Main for paddleboards, volleyball, and cabana rentals.
  • Transport: Arrange a sprinter van for stress-free shuttles between house and beach.

Saturday Afternoon: Pool Club, Glam, and Games

  • Backyard upgrade: Daybeds, umbrellas, branded floats, and a margarita or spritz station.
  • Wellness add-ons: On-site massage, mini facials, or IV hydration for a luxe reset.
  • Entertainment: Giant Jenga, pétanque, cornhole—and a photographer to capture candids.

Saturday Night: Private Chef Tasting + Firepit Afterparty

  • Tasting menu: Long Island duck, local clams, seasonal crudo—presented family-style at a candlelit farm table.
  • Signature cocktails: A mixologist crafts a “Birthday Flight” named for the guest of honor.
  • Firepit lounge: Espresso martinis, a dessert bar (mini s’mores, gelato), and a late-night playlist under the stars.

Sunday: Recovery Brunch + Gentle Movement

  • Easy luxury: Cold-pressed juices, acai bowls, pastries, and a chef’s frittata.
  • Stretch + breathe: A private yoga or mobility session on the lawn to close the loop.
  • Parting gift: Share a photo gallery link or printed polaroids as keepsakes.

How to Plan It Right (8–16 Guests)

  • Bedrooms & bathrooms: Confirm true sleeping capacity, ensuite count, and blackout shades for late risers.
  • Noise & neighbors: Respect local ordinances; keep outdoor music at reasonable levels after quiet hours.
  • Vendors: Lock in chef, DJ/musician, photographer, wellness pros, and transportation 2–4 weeks ahead.
  • Inventory: Order ice, mixers, flatware, serving platters, candles, bug repellent, and pool towels early.
  • Rain plan: Tents or a beautiful indoor tablescape so the party stays bulletproof.

Optional Luxe Add-Ons

  • Champagne/sprits tasting bar with custom glassware and a branded photo moment.
  • Beauty glam room with pro hair/makeup for sunset portraits.
  • Content concierge: A creator to film vertical video and deliver a 60-second recap reel by Monday.
