36 Feb21324 The Modesty of True Luxury Situated in the village of East Hampton, The Baker House 1650 has made its name through offering a luxury that is sumptuous, yet casual in equal measure. Having achieved amazing success in LUXlife’s 2021 Global Luxury Hotel & Spa Awards where the hotel won 2021's Award for Excellence in: Luxury Accommodation - the USA, we thought it was time to dig into what set this impressive team apart from the competition.

Perhaps one of the most distinct features that sets The Baker House apart is The Baker Spa. The relatively new addition features a counter- current pool, sauna, steam shower, soaking jacuzzi tub and changing room. While modern in every respect, it has been artfully designed to enhance the features of the original house.

The nature of this English-inspired property means that it is in high demand for weddings and large-scale events. 2021 will continue this trend as the team explore ways of providing safe places for these to take place.
