Luxurious Accommodations

Our guests were equally impressed with the accommodations. The 34 guest rooms at Oheka Castle are beautifully appointed, reflecting the lavish lifestyle of Long Island’s Gold Coast residents from the 1920s. The Frette linens and Molton Brown amenities added a touch of luxury. We stayed in one of the suites on our wedding night, which was a lovely and comfortable end to a perfect day.
