Perfect home for a large/multifamily group!

We have rented a few different homes in Naushop over the years because we have young kids and like the mid-island, 1-way cul-de-sac neighborhood with access to a pool and tennis/pickleball courts. This time we were traveling with 3 families and multiple kids ranging in age from 8 to 15 so finding an affordable house that could accommodate everyone was a tough find. But this home was perfect! I also liked that it's tucked in the back of Naushop rather than adjacent to the busy road as sometimes you can hear traffic/trucks in those homes.We had 2 teen boys that loved sleeping in the basement room, and a bunch of kids who loved being together in the large trundle room! 3 couples each had their own room and there was one leftover for any overflow (if kids from the trundle room wanted a break etc). The 1st floor had a nice open feel with a large table and an island. The kids loved backing up to the pool/playground too! The house was stocked with beach towels and chairs. The homeowner, Stephanie, was so accommodating and available whenever we had questions. Very laid back and easy!

Such a great house on a great island!

Our group had an amazing time at Stephanie's property. The house was better than expected, clean, and so cute. Stephanie was always available if we needed her and even provided recommendations for our group when it was raining. The outdoor space is a little oasis! Would love to stay at Stephanie's home again and highly recommend.

Great spot for our family stay!

We had four generations stay together in the house and had room to spare. Stephanie was helpful and responsive and the house was clean and well-stocked. Our grandmother was very comfortable in the downstairs master while the kids were happy on the third floor and the basement. The beach towels and sand toys were a hit. We were very sad to leave and can't wait to stay again.

Wonderful Week with a really great host

We spent one week on Nantucket and the nice big clean home made it easy! The owner host Stephanie was incredibly responsive on every question we had. The property has it all- beach towels chairs umbrellas, bikes, plenty of kitchen plates glasses etc and very comfortable beds And a community pool tennis pickle ball club house and lots of seatings with umbrella tables. Highly recommended but often booked!

The most amazing stay!

From the moment we started communicating with Stephanie, to our arrival, and departure, everything has been outstanding. The house is exactly, if not better, than the listing online. Stephanie was very informative, quick to respond, and very helpful. The location of the house is minutes from the airport, and downtown. The downstairs game room was so fun and the bicycles they provided were a definite plus for getting around the island. Staying here made our trip so much better. If we ever come back to Nantucket, we would definitely stay again!

A week in Nantucket

We had a lovely stay on the Island and the location and the house worked perfectly. It is very conveniently located close to the airport, which helped a lot coordinating different arrival and departure times and dates for our group. And we could easily talk to town as well. We had beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards for our use and a selection of bikes. The HOA pool was just around the corner. Everybody had a great time!

Perfect rental for multiple families!

We had such a wonderful stay at this house. Our party consisted of 3 families - 6 adults, one teen and 6 kids from ages 11-4. The bedrooms were perfect - 3 bedrooms with king beds, the teen had her own queen bedroom and the kids loved the attic room with all the twin beds. The living area on the first floor is open and spacious, with quality, comfortable furniture. The beds were VERY comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. Stephanie checked on us via text often and was incredibly responsive to our every need. The neighborhood is adorable, and a short uber ride to town. Highly recommend!

My husband and I had a “parents only” weekend away with a few other couples. There was plenty of rooms for everyone to stay comfortably. The kitchen, living room, dining, screened in porch and yard were the best combo for the layout. We spent so much time together relaxing for breakfast and dinner. Some of the guys in our group attended a fishing charter and we had an amazing dinner. We have rebooked this house and plan to bring the kids as it is the perfect place for kids with lots to do. Stephanie was inviting and attentive and truly wanted us to enjoy our stay. She really adds such a personal touch.

Beautiful house & roomy for a big group

It turns out that the "Children's Paradise" is also a perfect house to rent for a group of adults to spend a friends weekend together! The house was beautifully decorated, clean, and had just been spruced up with fresh paint before our arrival. The first floor has a nice open kitchen, living room, and dining room area which is great for a big group to all hang out, along with the options of a comfy porch and a patio out back. The bedroom situation was perfect for our group of 14, which is super difficult to find when looking to rent. The Naushop location was only a few minutes' drive from town and mid-island stores. Additionally, Stephanie was an incredible host to work with. Easy, fast, and clear communication before, during, and after the stay. We hope to be back some day!

Making memories…

Our group consisted of 4 adults and 5 children ranging from 3-11. Everyone had a wonderful time. Plenty of space to spread out. The beds were very comfortable. The pool/playground/tennis courts were conveniently located right behind the house! The bike path was right at the end of the road. Close to everything we needed and a quick 10 minute drive to town. We were blessed with beautiful weather all week long! We definitely made memories to last a lifetime. Thank you for opening your home to our family. We’ll definitely be bACK. ❤️

Wonderful ACKommodations

This beautify decorated home is in an excellent location, close to many of the island attractions and the neighborhood is just lovely. Going for morning walks and reading all the neighborhood quarter boards was a treat as well as having access to the neighborhood amenities. The house itself was very roomy for two families of three and my mom. We were able to be together in the common areas very comfortably and had our own spaces with the two primary bedrooms with en suite bathrooms. The beds were very comfortable, we all slept extremely well! The kids LOVED the Children’s room with the six day/trundle beds and immediately unpACKed their clothes and toys. The downstairs media/game room was a huge hit with the kids and adults! The owner, Stephanie, was a delight to work with and I’ll miss relaying our daily adventures but we are absolutely staying here again!

Beautiful home, fantastic host!

What a wonderful stay we had at Three Gulls and a Buoy! From the first contact with owner Stephanie, till the very end of our stay, everything was perfect. The house is huge, beautifully decorated, comfy, and extremely well equipped. We lacked nothing! Bedrooms were roomy, beds were comfortable, and everyone had plenty of space. The home was great for children. The kids loved the play space in the basement and the huge third floor bedroom. The large kitchen and coffee bar were great for us adults (8), as was the lovely, private backyard and screened room. We had pizza from Shangri-La sitting around the firepit one evening, it was lovely! Stephanie is an amazing host - so gracious and accommodating, and full of great tips! Nantucket is so charming and beautiful, we wished we had more time there. A fantastic vacation, and we hope to return. Wouldn't change a thing. Thank you Stephanie and family!!

Blissful and Spacious

Our stay here was an absolute treat, from the moment we connected with Stephanie until we were on the ferry headed homeward. The property was perfectly comfortable for everyone -- enough space to gather when we wanted to and enough space to get peace and quiet when we needed that. The 3rd floor setup (6 beds and 6 tuck-away beds beneath) made this a perfect experience for families with kids, giving them all a chance to have a sleepover together. While we didn't get to spend much time outside, the well-lit porch and sun room was temperate even as we approach winter. The only thing worth noting is that parking is difficult in this area, and requires some extra work to be within regulations (no guest parking on the street without a permit, small driveway). We didn't try to get any guest permits, but that may be worth checking in on if you planned to bring vehicle(s). We will absolutely plan to stay here again in the future. Thank you Stephanie!

An Amazing Family Stay in Nantucket!!

Our multigenerational family rented this beautiful home for four days after Christmas! It exceeded our expectations and we would love to make it a new annual tradition! The house was super spacious, spotless and very comfortable for our large group. The younger kids loved both the arcade games on the lower level and the huge entertainment system on the top floor. There were more than enough beds for all 16 of us to sleep comfortably and the open floor plan on the main floor was ideal for being all together. The location was perfect too! We had rented a car so it was a quick drive downtown but we easily ubered and walked a few times as well. The house must be amazing in the summertime when you can utilize the outside patio and enclosed porch. Without a doubt, the best part of this rental is the homeowner Stephanie! She was so warm, accommodating and such a wonderful host throughout our stay. She went above and beyond to make our stay the best experience and treated us like a good friend! We cannot say enough about this vacation rental!! It is truly an incredible gem!
