One of the most charming places I've ever stayed! The staff are amazing, and the location is unbeatable. I wanted to give it a bad review so I could have it all to myself LOL!

A fun place to stay right on the boat basin. Convenient to town, shopping, dining and the Wave (bus). Parking was a bit of a problem but in the nature of the location. There is designated parking off site (about a 10-15 minute walk). Staff were very friendly and helpful - overall an excellent experience!

If you’re the kind of person who loves falling asleep to the soothing sounds of a nightclub DJ thumping away until after 1 a.m. every single night, then the Cottages at Nantucket Boat Basin might be your dream stay. For the rest of us who value even a hint of peace and quiet on vacation, it’s more like paying luxury rates for front-row seats at a late-night block party you didn’t RSVP to. The bed itself? Surprisingly solid—let’s just say it’s well-suited for “romantic activities.” Sleeping, on the other hand, was more of a challenge unless you happen to enjoy pulsing basslines as your lullaby. Charming location, nice staff, but unless management decides that guests might occasionally want rest as well as nightlife, I’d recommend bringing earplugs… or maybe just your best dance shoes.
