My husband and I stumbled upon this GEM of a place while we were in Montauk this past July. This hotel is exactly what we were looking for. It is right on the beach - which made for an amazing setting. We were lucky enough to get one of the rooms facing the beach and basically left our door and windows open the entire time we were there, the sound of the ocean crept into our room and made for an incredible soundscape. The room was spacious, not huge, but more than enough space for the three of us. We had a very nice queen bed, a microwave and full refrigerator. In the corner space there was another twin bed and chair (perfect for our son who enjoyed his having his own space).
The hotel had a lovely wooden playground and a huge outdoor pool which we enjoyed.
East Deck is very laid back, rustic, and absolutely lovely. It is located just minutes from downtown, and its beach front location is wonderful.
Note that this hotel has no air conditioning, no phones, and very small televisions (digital cable is included). It is very very reasonable for the setting and for Montauk in general.
If we venture back to Montauk, we will definitely re visit this lovely gem of a place.
We absolutely loved the East Deck and highly recommend it!

We previously stayed at the Sole East Resort which was also very good. However on the weekend we went to East Deck, I was looking for a last minute deal and boy did we find it. This place is the greatest- low key, extremely friendly staff and clientele, clean rooms- you name it. The East Deck Motel is a gem- they even have a Zagat rated food cart, and the motel sits right on the ocean.
I highly recommend it!

I stayed at the East Deck for two nights for a quick family reunion in Long Island. I was pleasantly surprised at the hidden treasure my girlfriend found. The East Deck is a nostalgic snapshot of the past. Warm customer service, scenic beaches, and much needed privacy! This is not a bougy resort typical of the Hamptons... This is a real motel. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves in LI, and had an especially great time at the East Deck!!! If you get a chance, stop by The Dock... great local bar, delicious food!!!

I adore the East Deck - I've been coming for years. The wonderfully welcoming women who own and run the motel provide a lovely friendly atmosphere. I cannot imagine a more calming and restful place to enjoy the beach, the sunsets, relaxing on the deck, watching the surfers, etc. I just returned from a long weekend at the motel and had to send a thank you note to the East Deck thanking them. This is a direct quote from my note: "thank you for providing East Deck returnees with such a fantastic and easy experience. As you know, I love coming to the East Deck. I love that it is not a fancy shmancy place; rather, it is a restful respite from all the trappings of our hyper-materialistic culture that we are all so caught up in. Thank you for keeping it as it is. It's wonderful and one of my absolute favorite places anywhere."
