EMM Group partners
Mark Birnbaum and Eugene Remm (think NYC hot spots like
Abe and Arthur’s and
Tenjune) are replacing Lily Pond space with an outpost of their Meatpacking club
SL, called SL East. What You’ll Find: 7,000 square feet of East Hampton patio space, outdoor daybeds and plush banquettes. The latter of which were aligned to form a catwalk. Helpful should a spontaneous walk-off break out.
South Pointe
Opens May 27, then Saturday nights, South Pointe, 125 Tuckahoe Rd, Southampton, 212-255-1933
What You Seek: The distinct feeling that you’re on a deserted Caribbean island. But with a state-of-the-art sound and lighting system. What You’ll Find: A deck of 12 VIP cabanas cut off from civilization by a wall of potted palm trees, all brought to you by the Windsor folks. Don’t worry, you’ll still be able to communicate with the outside world through message in a bottle service.
The Elm

What You Seek: Multi-floor, sexed-up gatherings where burlesque dancers outnumber share-house kids.

Southampton Social Club
What You Seek: Minimizing movement after you’ve taken down a multitier seafood tower.
What You’ll Find: An ocean-to-table restaurant that transforms into an unhinged outdoor nightspot the moment the last lobster claw is cracked. Formally known as Madam Tongs
Nobu at the Beach
Opening early summer, Nobu at the Beach, 281 County Rd 39, Southampton, 631-287-9888
What You Seek: A way to finally bring Nobu with you on vacation.

Hamptons Free Ride
What You Seek: A ride to the beach.
