    Why I’m torn on this

    The convenient location near shops, along with the friendly staff, made it a pleasant stay! Plus, having beach chairs and bikes provided made exploring so much easier.

    Only two bathrooms for a group was less than ideal. it became inconvenient quickly.

    A cozy stay with sweet treats

    Woke up to a delicious surprise of freshly baked pastries delivered to our door. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, making every moment enjoyable.

    Unfortunately, the noise from the nearby bar kept us up late into the night, making restful sleep a challenge. We wished for a quieter room.

    small bathroom
    limited accessibility

    I loved the charming cottage style and beautiful harbor views, perfect for relaxation and easy access for seniors. The staff were incredibly accommodating and helpful, making our stay truly delightful.

    Bathroom could be larger and more accessible.

    beach chairs
    quaint location
    outdated bathrooms

    Staying here with my five adult children was a blast! We enjoyed long walks around the quaint Nantucket Ferry Terminal and loved using the beach chairs provided. The location made it super easy to explore local shops.

    In my wife’s opinion, the bathrooms could use an upgrade.

    worn out furniture

    Great location but needs work!

    We stayed in a two-bedroom cottage, and the views were really nice! It was so close to the ferry and shops, perfect for us. However, the living area was kinda worn out and the bathroom felt cramped. They allow pets, which is a plus. Just wish the place was a bit cleaner overall.

    Fantastic waterfront location near shops and restaurants! During my stay, I enjoyed the cozy ambiance and ample amenities, including free bike rentals. The staff were incredibly warm and helpful, which made my visit even more memorable. Just be mindful of noise from nearby establishments if you prefer quiet evenings.

    included bikes
    cozy porch
    lovely pool
    weak wi-fi

    We had an amazing time in our One Bedroom Cottage, especially enjoying the included bikes to explore the area and the cozy porch to sip our coffee with a view. The place has a lovely pool and a charming little dock area perfect for relaxing. One tiny thing was the Wi-Fi struggled a bit, but it didn't take away from our overall experience. 😊

    harbor views
    cozy furnishings
    attentive staff
    high noise
    construction noise

    I stayed in the One Bedroom Loft, Sea Syren, which offered stunning views of the harbor and was elegantly decorated with cozy furnishings. The location was unbeatable, right beside the action but still a peaceful retreat at night. The included bikes made exploring the island super easy and fun! The staff were also incredibly welcoming and attentive.

    The noise levels from nearby bars were noticeable.

    cozy cottage
    over-water deck
    beautiful decor
    noisy atmosphere

    The quaint cottage is beautifully decorated and fully equipped, making it a cozy spot after a day on the beach. Enjoying coffee on the charming over-the-water deck, while watching boats glide by, added a delightful touch to our stay.

    The noise from the bar below significantly impacted our evening peace, making it hard to relax or enjoy the private deck. Additionally, the bathroom door didn't open fully, causing minor annoyances during our stay, and the flooring showed signs of wear, suggesting a need for some updates.

    great location , but noisy mornings

    The location is ideal for ferry access, very convenient for travelers. The surrounding views are impressive, especially the harbor area, which made our stay more enjoyable. I appreciated the charming cottage décor that added charm to our experience.

    Noise from the ferry office below disrupted our sleep early each morning.

    beautiful views
    well-organized amenities
    cramped bathroom
    insufficient storage
    noise disruption

    The location on the wharf offers beautiful views and easy access to nearby shops and restaurants, making it perfect for relaxation. The room was well-organized with all necessary amenities, and the included bikes were an excellent bonus. However, the bathroom was exceptionally cramped, making it inconvenient, and there was insufficient space to store luggage and belongings. Additionally, noise from the ferry office below disrupted our mornings, which slightly marred the experience.
