The dining room comfortably seats 12 and features a hand-painted maritime mural, which is both amusing for kids and also makes for an elegant space for entertaining.
The open kitchen is well-appointed, with an island and 4 bar stools for everyone to gather around. If you like to cook on vacation, you will feel very at home here! The kitchen is stocked with every possible convenience and utensils! Use the pot filler by the stove to easily get those lobsters boiled or use the grill outside after picking up the famous jalapeño cheese burgers from nearby Nantucket Meat & Fish!
If you need a cup of coffee before venturing out of the house in the morning, choose from the French press, the Mr. Coffee Drip coffee or the Nespresso VertuoLine, and use the Breville milk frother for your lattes (yeah, we like coffee too!).
The den is were you will find a cozy spot to enjoy your morning coffee, unwind after a day at the beach or cozy up to watch a movie. With a mounted 55" TV and a working fireplace, it is an amazing space for all seasons.
The outdoor deck and the delightful yard can be accessed through the den or the kitchen. The outdoor dining table on the bluestone patio is perfect for daytime lunches and sports a grill made for your BBQs! If you want to host dinner parties, the glow of twinkling string lights adds the special touch. The deck is also home to the outdoor shower, perfect for a quick rinse-off when you come back from your day at the beach!
Across the yard is the charming Guest Cottage, which houses 1 king bedroom and a Captain's room with a Twin XL bed. The cottage is outfitted with a bathroom with a walk-in shower and comes complete with a wet bar/tiny kitchen (sink, mini fridge, toaster oven, mini Nespresso and hot water kettle). This lovely retreat from the Main House is perfect for those desiring privacy for the main house (the Captain's room can also be used as a baby's bedroom with a pack and play). Make your morning coffee in private and retire at night from the Main House for a glass of wine and time to catch up on your TV shows on the cozy couch.
The seashell driveway can fit two smaller cars or one large car.
The beach shed houses all the necessities: beach chairs, boogie boards, beach toys and two bikes.
Guests have access to the entire Main House, the Guest Cottage, the deck and yard, and driveway - all private and fenced in. The house and cottage come complete with everything you need and the bathrooms are all stocked with Kiehls products.
This delightful property has everything to make you feel at home while on vacation, and is truly a special place to unplug and enjoy all that Nantucket has to offer.

Great stay for a larger group with lots of sleeping space and space for activities! All the additional amenities (nepresso, khiels products, etc) were a wonderful touch!
This was a perfect setting for our family’s week stay on island. The house, cottage, and grounds are well-appointed and clean, and the location is perfect for walks to town or quick rides to the beach. Would recommend to any groups but especially families looking for some space and greenery while remaining close to town. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
Great house, cottage and yard! House was filled with all amenities needed for meals, grilling and such. We loved the close proximity to town. Could not ask for a better experience!
Overall an amazing place to stay. The house was fully stocked and had everything you could think of in order to have a great getaway. The house was so close to downtown and in a great area. The hosts were terrific! We had 10 girls and everyone fit comfortably. We want to plan to come back next year!
This charming cottage is so beautifully appointed and tasteful, with lovely linens and dishes, comfortable rooms … the owners though of everything, even a little wagon to take supplies to the beach ! We loved it !

So glad you enjoyed your visit! We hope to have you back next year!
Our group of 8 women had a wonderful stay over the winter stroll. the house was perfect for our large group - everyone had their own bed, and there was plenty of space for us all to gather together as well. the location was great, walking distance to downtown and other conveniences. The hosts were quickly available if we had any questions. Recommend without hesitation!
The property is very well maintained. The owner makes every effort to ensure an enjoyable stay and goes above and beyond. In addition, the property manager is very responsive. A very positive experience!
We had a great time staying here - everything we needed was there, the house and cottage were set up nicely for our family with lots of space to spread out. Convenient location also! We would absolutely come back :)
My grandmother and grandfather met on Nantucket in the 40's. She was descended from the first woman to set foot on Plymouth Rock, and he was Swiss German. Their meeting on the island was our inspiration for our home; hence the name SchatzSea: "Schatz" in German is directly translated to "Treasure," but is also a pet name for a loved one, often spoken in the diminutive as "Schatzi" (pronounced Sh-ahtz-sea). Our home is a play on words; treasure of the sea, but also our little loved one.
We are a young couple that have visited the island for many years in all seasons, and now want to share our little gem with others.
