A full-service resort in the heart of Nantucket town, steps from the ferry and Main Street. The 70-room property offers two pools, a restaurant, spa, and the convenience of being able to walk everywhere on the island.
The Nantucket Hotel & Resort at 77 Easton Street occupies a central position in the heart of Nantucket Town, Massachusetts, steps from the ferry terminals, the Whaling Museum, and the cobblestone Main Street that defines the island's historic commercial core. The resort opened in its current full-service form after extensive renovation and expansion, positioning itself as Nantucket Town's only full-service resort property — a distinction that fills a meaningful gap in the island's accommodation landscape, otherwise dominated by historic inns, bed and breakfasts, and out-of-town luxury properties. The 70-room property offers hotel rooms, junior suites, and family suites in a contemporary New England coastal aesthetic, with white shiplap, navy accents, and natural wood tones throughout. The resort's two pools — an adults-only pool and a family pool — are the hotel's most popular amenities, particularly given the island's coastal positioning. A full-service spa offers massages, facials, and body treatments. On-site dining is provided by NANI, the resort's restaurant serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner with a seafood-forward menu. A fitness center is modern and well-equipped. The Easton Street location is Nantucket Town's most walkable address: the Steamship Authority ferry pier is two blocks away, Main Street is a five-minute walk, and the historic Brant Point Lighthouse is visible across the inner harbor. The hotel's full amenity set makes it an effective choice for families, groups, and conference events on Nantucket.

Tips for visiting
- The adults-only pool is one of the most peaceful amenities on Nantucket in summer — use it for morning laps before families arrive at the family pool.
- Main Street, Nantucket's historic shopping and dining heart, is a five-minute walk from the hotel — ideal for morning coffee and evening dining.
- The ferry terminal is two blocks away; catching an early fast ferry from Hyannis maximizes the first day on the island.
- Book during late May, June, or September for better rates and more availability; July and August see the highest demand and prices.
- Nantucket's bike paths extend from town toward Siasconset and Madaket — rent bikes nearby for half-day excursions to quieter parts of the island.
