The Wauwinet was everything we expected and more. The location is perfect. The service is great. We stayed for two nights to celebrate my birthday. The housekeepers decorated our room in celebration. The staff at the front desk sang me a "happy birthday" one morning. They really made us feel "at home" during our stay. The property is spectacular. Right on the water with beach access. Although ~20 minutes from downtown, there is plenty to do (e.g., kayaks, tennis, various boat tours). Wauwinet is calm; perfect for couples. We had a great experience at Toppers, the restaurant on site. It was not cheap, but it was definitely worth it. We'd recommend Wauwinet to anyone that's looking to stay on Nantucket! THANK YOU to the Wauwinet team for everything!

The Wauwinet is magical. Nothing else remotely compares. Beautiful property with easy strolls along the beach on both the ocean and the harbor sides. Wonderful restaurant as well. Stay here if you can - and can afford it!

I loved the shuttle ride that picked us up from the visitor center. I loved that they let us know where to go to be picked up. I loved checking into our room. They offered us champagne and helped us to our room. The room itself was unbelievable!! So beautiful ! The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were so clean! They had cheese and port every afternoon and also hot apple cider that you could drink while you sat next to the fire in the library. The staff was what made it so great. They were very helpful with helping us plan what to do and where to eat. I can’t say enough about our stay there. It was magical!!!

Suggestion for energy saving: motion sensors for lights, ceiling fans for cool air instead of A/C running all the time, electric shuttle vans instead of gas-run automobiles

A hotel shuttle picked us up from the Hyline ferry and brought us to the hotel (about a 20 minute drive). We were greeted with a glass of bubbles and within a few minutes told our room was ready even though we arrived well before the check in time. Nice view of the water with plenty of seating. We even had to lounge chairs on a private patio by our room. Enjoyed the Wine Spectator Grand Award restaurant Topper’s. The staff was super friendly and met all of our needs. Only negative was the shuttle van air conditioner wasn’t working and it was very hot and stuffy in the van. Would recommend this hotel to everyone.

The property was beautiful and the weather was perfect. The staff was very nice and helpful

Beautiful bayside inn with stunning views. Friendly staff, great dining and drinks.

Staff was incredible! Jeannie the concierge was so helpful, made all our reservations, turn down service was lovely. Complimentary champagne on arrival, was such a surprise! Clean friendly wonderful staff. Delicious restaurant at Toppers, fine dining. The Wauwinet is in a class by itself. The most spectacular views of the Bay and the Atlantic. relaxing lobby with a fireplace that is never left unattended. Our stay was just wonderful for our special anniversary.... we will definitely be back. Mark and Laurine Candido

Very welcoming and could not have been a better place to stay on Nantucket.

I loved the Wauwinet. Clean rooms and great service. Their restaurant is delicious too and they offer a complimentary shuttle to the town. The only issue we had was that our ferry got cancelled due to the bad weather but that is not something the resort can fix.

Gorgeous setting Loved my room Service great Food not so great awful to be honest

Charming Nantucket hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Excellent location if you like quiet sandy beaches, restful vistas away from crowds, and easy access to everything.

Just lovely - the rooms, the dining, bar, library, entrance hall so nice and a few minutes to the Bay beach or Atlantic plus gorgeous lawns with loungers where you can watch the sunset and all the staff are amazing!

Very pleasant

The proximity to both the ocean beach and the bay beach.

Wonderful couples get away! We loved it.

WOW what a wonderful place to stay. Well appointed with very professional and friendly staff. So beautiful!!

Overall it was pretty great. Maybe it's because it is such a high class hotel that most guests don't like doing certain things themselves, but for me this lacked certain things I usually enjoy in most or all hotels at which I stay which says a lot since this was probably the most expensive hotel or resort at which I've ever stayed: - coffee machine with complimentary bags of coffee in the actual room - vegetarian room service options for lunch and dinner - a mini-fridge in the room - late night room service (if I remember the room service was a only available until 10pm or 11pm); this is a much bigger problem than normal when combined with the lack of a mini-fridge and lack of local late night third-party delivery options - a complimentary breakfast that extends beyond 9am and that includes more than just pastries and coffee - more water availableOverall, I very much enjoyed our stay. I know I am person who sleeps later in the morning than most and stays up later at night than most, and I am person who drinks a lot more water and coffee than most. But I frequently found myself hungry and thirsty.

Extremely friendly and efficient staff, impeccable service, excellent food, very private location. Shuttle service to town center every hour.

Awesome property, great views. Super quaint cottages. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Nantucket.

Beautiful location off the beaten path. Nails the Nantucket vibe.

Front desk person was rude and not very helpful when we checked in and throughout our stay.
