First Family Getaway

Had a great time in nantucket with our newborn. First time traveling with the baby and the house met all of our needs. Have traveled to Nantucket annually for past 10 years, but first time staying in Madaket and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Access to the smaller beach down the road was great for our family.

Perfect Stay in Madaket

There was plenty of room for our guests to all sleep comfortably, the central air was awesome for the hot nights in August. We were a close walk to Madaket beach (where we took advantage of the amazing sunset views) and to Millie's. We also took the Wave (Nantucket's bus) to the center of town, and was very convenient and easy to use. Would highly recommend this stay, especially for the price point.

Great Family Rental

We had a great stay at Margaret's place! With 3 small children, the space was ideal for our trip to Nantucket. The townhome is just a 15 minute walk to Millie's and the Madaket beaches. We rented a car to get to other places around the Island, but it was nice to be able to come and go as we please. The townhome is part of a 4-unit complex, so there are other people to be considerate of, but overall not an issue. We'll look to book again!

This townhouse was perfect for our family! The home was exactly as described and pictured. It was clean. It had everything we needed with a low-key beach house vibe. The beds were comfortable, and the living room was a great place to hang out. Location-wise, it's ideal for those who love Madaket (honestly my favorite place to stay on island). The beach and Millie's are both walkable, as is the Wave bus stop. I do recommend bringing a car if you can, just so you can easily get to other spots on the island (that's going to be the case no matter where you stay). As it is a townhouse, you are pretty close to neighbors, but they are all very friendly and helpful. We had a great week here and hope to return!

Peaceful

We didn’t stay at the property much, we had so much to do and see in a short few days, just slept there mostly. It’s a townhouse and it needs some updating, but the owner was super helpful with anything questions I asked her before we arrived. We had no issues at the property at all, everything was in working order. Nantucket is a wonderful place and I’m so happy I was able to visit!

Sunsets and seals in Madaket!

We had a wonderful stay. The townhouse was clean and well stocked with all the essentials. The size and layout were perfect to accommodate two families. We could walk to Millie’s and the beach which were huge perks. You can even hear the waves crashing from the property! While we had a car and didn’t need the shuttle we were close enough to the shuttle stop that a car wasn’t necessary. The owner was helpful and responsive. Home was clean and organized. Would definitely recommend!

1st Tucket Stay

My family has been coming to the Island for 50 yrs. This is my1st rental. The condo was nice and near to other family. It definitely needs some updating in the utensil department. New flatware and sharp knives would be ideal. Also instructions on how to use the tv would be helpful. All in all, i would stay again

Thank you Judith. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. I always appreciate when a guests communicates with me directly with items such as using the tv during the stay rather than after. I am planning to update the utensils over the winter.

Nantucket

Kitchen was great and well stocked to cook. The living room is large and comfortable. The third bedroom is not really a bedroom. There was no place for a suitcase or stand in the room. Outside shower is only accessible though a bedroom. There was plenty of parking. It was not a quiet retreat.

Sweet and simple Beach home

Arriving and checking in at Margaret's property was very simple and easy - keep in mind your gps will overshoot a little bit, the entry to the driveway comes up a bit quicker. Keypad entry, parking right almost at the door. Neighbors are lovely, welcoming people. The space - everything is clean and simple, reminded me of the beach stays I used to have as a kid. Kitchen is beautiful, a really fun space to eat/dine in. Supplies like pots/utensils are there. Bathrooms are clean and cute. There is also a nice patio overlooking a cute backyard space. The beach is about a ten minute walk down the road and you can drive down there is a bit of parking down there. If you want to go out to eat in the area, Millie's is just down the road. Downtown is of course not too far a drive either. I would stay here again, 10/10.

Fantastic Madaket Vacation!

We had the best week on Nantucket staying in this Madaket townhouse. Location is everything and this home is located a short walk from the Madaket beach and from Millie’s—two of our all time favorite Nantucket spots. While this unit is a townhouse, the building is set back so the deck overlooks conservation land and feels very peaceful. We were mostly unaware of the other units and their residents, which was great. We didn’t even bother with the indoor showers because of how much we loved the outdoor one—it was amazing! We brought our car and rented bikes for the week but you really wouldn’t need either as the public bus stop is close by. Some of the less than stellar reviews below are clearly from people who don’t know the Nantucket rental market. This place is a great value and well priced for the location and the accommodations. Beach chairs, towels, linens, etc were all included and we enjoyed cooking in the updated kitchen. The owner was very communicative and available throughout our stay. Overall, it was a fabulous week in one of our all time places and we are already looking forward to next year!

All the Comforts of Home with Walk to Beach.

My favorite part of staying here was the short walk to the beach with the most gorgeous sunset. This part of ACK is far from the hustle and bustle (which is a plus for us.) We were already familiar with the townhouses here before arriving, so no surprises there. It's a bit rough around the edges compared to the quaint perfection seen around most of Nantucket. There is less privacy too, but our neighbors were friendly and for the price it can't be beat. The layout worked for us but could be tricky for some. The first sm. room (with bunkbed) is next to the front door. There is another bedroom down the hall with a queen and twin bed (this room is a pass-through to get out to the backdoor to the outdoor shower.) There is also a full bath on this floor. The 2nd floor is open living with a fully stocked kitchen. The top floor has a queen bedroom (*comfortable bed) and bath. We enjoyed our stay and would book this rental again.

Priced fairly for what you get

This unit is between two attached units as part of a townhouse. The location is very close to the beach and WAVE bus which takes you to the Whaling Museum in town. We drove to the beach because we have so much stuff to carry but it's walkable. You can hear the ocean from the house. The unit is off a dirt road which had HUGE potholes when we first arrived but then were filled in and made it much nicer. The unit itself is functional but other than the kitchen, it really needs to be updated. Some relatively small fixes/updates could go a long way. The house had beach chairs but no beach towels and very limited bath towels. I bought 3 beach towels and left them at the unit. There is a really nice outdoor shower. My rating is based on the fact that I think it's priced fairly for what you get on this island and any place booked through a realtor will require a full week rental.

Thank you Kerri. The bathrooms have been updated since I purchased the unit 10 years ago, not just the kitchen. The lack of beach (and bath) towels is likely because the prior guests used them all and they were with the laundry service. I actually have at least 8 beach towels. I appreciate the feedback and given this comment, I am going to require guests to wash and dry at least a portion of the towels from now on so this does not happen again. My unit has been a work in progress and we are always making improvements each winter. I have put in all new wood floors, new windows, new kitchen and bathrooms.

Madaket beach sunsets and Millies!

We had a wonderful stay at this townhouse. It provided ample room for all guests to come and go as they pleased. The kitchen is fully stocked. The bedrooms had nice clean linens and were comfortable. One bedroom is rather small with bunk beds but fine for just sleeping in it.My only suggestion was that online it said check in was 4pm and check out 11:00am but once we arrived the paperwork left on the counter was different (it read: check in at 3 and check out at 10am) which made it difficult to wash & fold all the towels and place them back before leaving. The listing should be clarified. Also we never got any information about how to check in the night before. When we arrived we got an entry code from the neighbor next door who also ended up being the cleaning services. None of this was a big deal but I like to know these details ahead of time. This townhouse is a 5 minute walk to the bus stop and the bus ran about every 30 minutes. It was easy and free. Millies restaurant was a treat for seafood with a texmex flair. Excellent quesadillas and street corn. Sunset spritzers weren't disappointing either! For those who like to eat breakfast in a restaurant Millies is Take Out only not served inside the restaurant. Fine if you want a breakfast sandwich to go. I would happily stay here again. I had a beautiful day walking along Madeket beach with my husband and dog. I hope life treats you kind and you get the chance to experience Nantucket for its natural beauty!
