Short-Term Rental Regulations
Amagansett falls under the Town of East Hampton’s Rental Registry framework, one of the most detailed STR regulatory structures in New York State. All non-exempt residential rentals must obtain a Rental Registry Number from the Town Building Department at a cost of $200, valid for two years. The registry number must appear in every rental advertisement.
A critical operating constraint: short-term rentals under 14 days are limited to twice per 6-month period, effectively capping short stays at 4 per year per property. Rentals of 14 nights or longer have no frequency restriction. Occupancy is capped at 4 unrelated persons, and parking at non-owner-occupied properties is limited to 4 vehicles. Share-house arrangements renting individual rooms by the day or week are prohibited.
Penalties are substantial: operating without registration risks fines of $3,000 to $15,000 and up to 6 months imprisonment; missing the registry number in advertisements draws $150 to $1,500; repeat offenses within 18 months can reach $8,000 to $30,000.
Tax obligations include Suffolk County’s 5.5% Hotel/Motel Tax (raised from 3% in June 2023) plus New York State and Suffolk County combined sales tax of 8.75% on all short-term rental occupancy charges. Enforcement is rated strict. As of May 2026, the Town Board is under contract with Deckard Technologies for AI-powered compliance monitoring, with a July 2026 launch planned.
Market Comparison
Amagansett’s April 2026 occupancy of 49.3% is below the approximate U.S. STR median of 55%, but this reflects a genuine off-season month for a sharply seasonal coastal market. Its ADR of $296 in April is well above the national median of roughly $220, consistent with the Hamptons’ premium positioning. Summer ADR exceeding $800 places this market among the highest-rate STR destinations in the Northeast.
The operator landscape has meaningful concentration at the top. StayMarquis leads with 354 listings and 2,052 reviews (average rating 4.79), representing approximately 3.6% of total market supply. Evolve holds second with 77 listings and 2,570 reviews (4.47 stars). PMI Gold Coast Properties ranks third with 51 listings (4.62 stars), followed by Luxury Beach Getaway (47 listings, 4.78 stars) and Vacasa (45 listings, 4.30 stars). The top 5 operators together account for roughly 574 listings, about 5.9% of total supply.
The market’s total score of 42.19 out of 100 is low relative to national STR markets, primarily because the investability score (53.75) and seasonality concentration score (42.33) reflect the market’s extreme entry costs and summer-only demand pattern rather than a weak market fundamentally.
