The Pridwin Hotel & Cottages will host an epic Dirty Dancing-themed weekend this September. Sept. 8–10, guests can embrace nostalgia and step into Dirty Dancing with a Shelter Island, New York, twist.

Soak up the feeling of 1963 with this Dirty Dancing offer, including a variety of themed events and activities to make guests feel like they’re the ones being lifted above Patrick Swayze. The weekend even features honorary guest Eleanor Bergstein, writer and co-producer of the film.

The Dirty Dancing weekend getaway includes:

  • A vinyl record player playing the movie’s soundtrack in guestrooms upon arrival; guests are encouraged to take it home
  • A Dirty Dancing Happy Hour with I Carried a Watermelon cocktail and light bites
  • An intimate conversation with Eleanor Bergstein
  • A :She’s Like the Wind Sunset Cruise” on The Pridwin’s private boat
  • A full American breakfast on the Terrace
  • “Hungry Eyes” barbeque buffet dinner on Pridwin’s Great Lawn
  • An “I’ve Had the Time of My Life” farewell brunch

“I am thrilled to see this weekend getaway come together – with our picturesque waterfront setting and retro charm, The Pridwin is bringing the essence of this iconic movie to life. Picture yourself stepping into the magic of 1963, where the playful nostalgia and summer camp atmosphere will captivate your heart,” said Curtis Bashaw, co-founder, Cape Resorts. “Guests are going to create new memories, and experience ‘the time of their lives.”
