Ask anyone who’s spent a lazy Sunday morning in our Members Room, coffee in hand, dunes just visible through the window, and they’ll tell you the same thing: this isn’t really about a discount card. Gallivant hotel membership is about having somewhere by the sea that’s always, quietly, yours.
Think of it as a key to the building, not just a table for dinner.
Harry’s, our restaurant, has opening hours like any restaurant. But membership gives you access to The Gallivant itself, the sitting rooms, the bar, the garden, the whole gentle rhythm of the place well beyond those hours.
During the day, Members can drop in for breakfast, coffee, a light lunch or a drink at the bar, whenever the mood strikes. No booking a table required, no feeling like you need an occasion.
It’s less a loyalty scheme and more a standing invitation.
As one of the few members the hotel East Sussex has, we built this so that our regulars the ones who treat Camber Sands as their second home never have to wait for a reason to visit.
There’s no joining fee and no catch. Just three ways in, depending on what matters most to you:
Every tier lets you bring up to three guests, with your discount applied across the whole table. So Sunday brunch with friends, a spontaneous glass of something at the bar, or a quiet hour in the Members Room before a beach walk it’s all part of belonging.
Prefer to move rather than lounge? Our Camber Sands Hotel members club runs a full timetable of daily yoga, in the studio or wild on the beach, led by teachers who genuinely love what they do.
Here’s the honest answer: we built this hotel loyalty programme East Sussex guests kept asking for, because the people who return to us again and again are the ones who make The Gallivant feel like The Gallivant.
Members aren’t an add-on to our community; they are our community. The familiar faces at the bar, the dog walkers who pop in after the dunes, the yoga regulars who know every teacher by name. They’re part of why new guests tell us there’s a warmth here they don’t find elsewhere.
Keeping access to quieter hours exclusive to Members and residents isn’t about drawing a line. It’s how we protect the calm, unhurried feeling that makes this place what it is for everyone who walks through the door.
Joining is refreshingly simple:
There’s genuinely no catch: just a warm welcome and a standing table at the coast.
Ask our Members why they joined and you’ll hear some version of the same thing: it started as an occasional visit and became a habit they didn’t want to give up.
A quiet coffee before the school run. A yoga class squeezed in before a train back to London. A Friday-night table at Harry’s that’s become a fixture in the diary. Many of our Members tell us it’s the one hour a week that genuinely feels like theirs.
Curious what a stay itself is like before you commit to membership? Our Google Business Profile reviews are full of guests describing exactly that same feeling: unpretentious, warm, and hard to leave.
If you’ve read this far, you already know whether The Gallivant could be your coastal home. Membership isn’t about ticking a box; it’s an invitation to make Camber Sands part of your regular rhythm, whether that’s breakfast by the window, a discounted stay in one of our rooms, or an evening at Harry’s.
