About this house rental
The perfect beach getaway!
Tucked away in Madaket, "Ashanti House" is beautifully landscaped and private, with plenty of outdoor gathering spaces and a short stroll to a private beach. Sleeping up to 12 and generously equipped for a great beach vacation, it's your ideal Nantucket home base — slow mornings, sunny days, and salty sunsets included.
The Location -
10-minute walk to private beach
5-minute walk to Millie's and the General Store
Around the corner from the bike path and town bus stop
North side of house:
Spacious queen bedroom w/flat-screen TV & closet.
Spacious queen bedroom w/flat-screen TV & closet.
Twin bedroom with two twin beds. Great for kids
South side of the house:
Bunk-bed room with three bunk beds (Sleeps 6), a couch, and flat screen TV.
Queen bedroom with large closet and Window/Door sliders to front deck.
Living Spaces
Between the two sleeping areas, you'll find a bright, open living, dining, and kitchen space with soaring ceilings and a generous sitting area. The fully equipped kitchen features an island with four stools and flows into the dining room, where a wide country table seats eight comfortably.
The Outdoors
Step out to a large private backyard deck — perfect for dining al fresco — and a beautifully manicured yard. Gather for a family dinner as the sun sets over the west-facing back porch, or savor a quiet moment with a book or the morning paper on the front porch. The landscaped yard also offers a gas grill, an outdoor shower, and a picnic table.
Nantucket is a spectacular island — and it's easy to see why it's such a popular destination!

10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
We appreciated the pet friendly, our elderly dog passed away before we traveled, He would have loved it. Proximity to beach and neighborhood in Madaket are also big draw for us. The space also offers a lot of privacy, almost like separate suites which I can see would help with larger families.

Such a pleasant experience at Ashanti. Chris and Bettina were extremely accommodating hosts. Highly recommend staying here with your group if you can!
6 / 10Average·Aug 2021
There were a number of positives and negatives; the positives:
- good sized main living room
- nice large, shady deck for outdoor meals
- good outdoor seating
- outdoor shower was useful
- reasonably close to beautiful beaches
Some negatives:
- large main yard was unmowed, which was unpleasant and we weren't really able to use it
- decks had some protruding nail heads, which were somewhat treacherous
- washer and dryer were old and took a long time to run and were very noisy
- window screens and screen door were poorly fitting/broken, and left large gaps, which resulted in some insect issues
- small ants were spotted in kitchen cupboards and on kitchen floor
- screen slider didn't slide well / was broken (though still usable)
- lack of AC made sleeping uncomfortable
- furniture was musty; furniture covers had rips and stains
- stove had only three small burners working (main one was broken)
- refrigerator shelf fell down three times, seemed broken also (we ultimately left it down)
- yard and deck still had some confetti and some paraphernalia from a bachelorette party were left in the house
overall, it could have been cleaner, and there were some other inconveniences... I would definitely return to Nantucket, but I would probably not rent this place again
