Planning a seaside escape filled with charm and salty breezes? I’ve stayed at a few Nantucket hotels that captured everything I love about this island—historic elegance, coastal comfort, and walkable access to beaches, boutiques, and harbor views. If you’re anything like me, you’ll appreciate how effortless and dreamy a stay here can feel.

Highlights:

  • I’ve fallen for the charm of historic inns tucked right into downtown Nantucket—perfect for morning strolls and sunset shopping.
  • If harborfront views are your thing (they’re definitely mine), luxury boutique hotels here don’t disappoint.
  • Some of the coziest nights I’ve had were in bed-and-breakfasts with coastal cottage vibes and the friendliest hosts.
  • When I wanted a little indulgence, elegant resorts offered spa services and gourmet dining that made every moment feel special.
  • And if you’re bringing family or a furry friend, I’ve found pet-friendly and family-welcoming stays that made everyone feel right at home.
