Fodor's Expert Review The Nantucket Hotel and Resort

The original impressive 19th-century shell remains, though its interior is sleek, gleaming, and crisp, with a blend of calming neutrals and navy. Choose a standard room or from one-, two-, and three-bedroom suites, all with thoughtful personal touches and decorative nods to history: sperm whale-decorated pillows on the beds, historic photographs and murals of Nantucket, children's books placed in each room. Service here is exceptional, friendly, and plentiful, as are the amenities.
