Being a very frequent visitor to Nantucket, we are fortunate enough to have tried several types of accommodations on the Island. We have stayed at both hotels and residences. Each time, we have stayed, we always discuss the pros and cons. Consistently, the Cottages have remained one of our top choices on the Island. We have stayed many times at... More

Perfect! Arrived early;friendly staff had our upgraded 2 BR unit ready within an hour. It was our 25th anniversary and our children had arranged for rose petals and chocolate covered strawberries to be waiting for us! Great surprise! One of the best percs are the bikes, helmets and bike locks available free of charge. Front desk staff provided us with... More

The 'cottage' was in fact the upper story of a wood-clad building, quite 'weathered' looking outside but clean, bright, spacious, absolutely delightful inside. Being there slightly ahead of 'season', we found the cottage to have been cleaned and redecorated to the highest standard with excellent facilities and in a perfect location. The furniture and beds were comfortable, the bathroom and... More

Three of us stayed in the cottage called, End of Rope, which was directly on the water, with a bright and cheery interior and huge deck. We looked out across at Monomoy which was nicer than looking at the boat basin in my opinion. Beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was fine for our needs. The location was excellent.... More

A beautiful little condo right by the water. Great location; can walk to many shops and restaurants. The staff is so helpful ask them about anything and they have the answer. Would definitely tell friends and family to visit real soon.

My review is long LONG overdue. My husband and I got married on Nantucket in June of 2011 and stayed at the Cottages (as well as the White Elephant Residences). However we chose to stay at the Cottages for the week after our wedding for a little getaway since we weren't going to go on a honeymoon until December. For... More

My wife and I stayed here for two days with our two-month-old baby. We loved our little one-bedroom loft, Upper Mermansion, which had great views of the water and docks out of almost every window (including a couple fun octagonal portholes). Service, while simple, was very friendly and helpful - just what we wanted. We'd love to stay here again.... More

Stayed in Straight Wharf 2 Bedroom Loft which was tucked away down an alley right in town. Unlike many of the cottages that were right on the docks this place was a VERY roomy loft that suited us perfectly. Were only there for a vouple of nights, would have loved to have stayed a little longer. this place made me... More

My husband and I recently visited the Cottages at Boat Basin for our 20th Wedding Anniversary (October 2-4). We chose this property because it really epitomized the charm of Nantucket. There's nothing better than sipping a glass of wine on your patio, while watching a seal meander through the harbour! The location was superb and the staff was exceptionally friendly... More
