Chic has vacation fever along with vous, and while faraway destinations (like Mustique) are a must, weekend getaways are de rigeur, too. Hamptons aside, let's consider Montauk (provided you still count that as un-Hamptonsy.) The relaxing beach town's history (peppered with lore from Andy Warhol and the Stones) boasts current residents like Mickey Drexler and Ralph Lauren. Lady Gaga is even allegedly looking for a place. For thos angling for a mixture of old and nouveau chic, consider a stay at the Panoramic View Resort on Old Montauk Highway. Every room nestled on the majestic hillside has panoramic views of the white sandy beach below. Surrounded by lush greenery and the most fragrant flowers we've experienced on Long Island, it has over 50 years of hospitality experience under its belt. The rooms are designed with a quaint retro feel and a clean, white decor that conjures up visions of Adrien Lynne's haunting locales in Lolita.
