The story

Nantucket's year-round hotel since 1891

The Nantucket Hotel has been welcoming guests since 1891. It stands in the historic Brant Point neighbourhood, steps from the cobbled streets of downtown and a short bike ride from the beach, and describes itself as the island's only year-round hotel. In 2012 the Snider family restored it as a modern yet nostalgic grand dame. Guests have two heated pools, a children's programme, concierge services and shuttle service to Jetties Beach, along with 1-4 bedroom suites and cottages, a private parking lot within walking distance of the docks, and Breeze, serving New England cuisine with a contemporary twist.

Weddings can be held in one weatherproof downtown location, with music allowed until midnight. The Grand Ballroom, with a stage, dance floor, bar and direct connection to Breeze Bar and the Breezeway, hosts receptions, and has antique wide-board oak flooring and dramatic ceiling heights. Ceremonies take place in a shell garden with an indoor option and weather backup, and a separate cocktail hour is held on the decks and in the restaurant before the reception. An after-party continues at The Club Lounge. Antique vehicles can be arranged for photographs or a ride around town, and the events team can discuss a full resort buy-out package.
