Editorial Review
Danfords Hotel & Marina sits perched on the Port Jefferson waterfront, a breezy anchor to the village’s nautical soul. The minute you step into the lobby, there’s a whiff of salt air and polished wood, the kind of place that draws everyone from brides in white to ferry-weary travelers. Rooms, many with balconies, gaze out over bobbing sailboats and the gentle bustle of the marina. Event spaces like the Starlight Ballroom and Coastal Room have witnessed countless celebrations, their walls echoing with laughter and clinking glasses. Locals gather here for milestone events or a seafood dinner overlooking the Sound, while out-of-towners soak up the picturesque Long Island harbor vibe, steps from downtown’s shops and the ferry terminal. Service is attentive and warm, an unpretentious blend of small-town hospitality and boutique comfort. Danfords isn’t just a hotel—it’s where Port Jefferson’s stories converge, from wedding weekends to impromptu sunsets with friends. This is the village’s living room, where the maritime past and present float quietly in the background.
