Are there seasonal jobs in the Hamptons with housing included?

I'm considering spending my summer working in the Hamptons for the experience. I've heard some seasonal jobs might offer housing. Does anyone know if this is true, and if so, what types of jobs usually include housing perks?

Absolutely, there are indeed seasonal job opportunities in the Hamptons that come with housing options. These positions often fall under the hospitality and service industry sectors due to the high tourism nature of the area.

Many hotels, restaurants, and resorts in the area offer staff accommodation as part of the job package. Here's an example: a summer job as a waitress at a popular seaside restaurant. In addition to regular pay, these jobs often provide housing in a shared staff quarters situation.

Summer camps are another option where housing is typically included. Being a camp counselor for one of the many day or overnight camps in the area is a fantastic way to spend the summer and enjoy the Hamptons.

Private staffing is another option. Many wealthy families hire seasonal help in the form of chefs, cleaners, and nannies. These jobs often involve living on the property, either in the main house or in separate staff quarters on-site.

Notably, when taking such jobs, it's essential to understand your rights and responsibilities regarding your housing situation, like knowing the living conditions provided, understanding who your roommates might be, and being clear about your privacy.

Good luck with your job hunt; working a summer job in the Hamptons can be a rewarding and enjoyable experience.
