Especially hearing from a bride who chose to stay at "Hunky Dory" for such a special week. I am so glad I asked if you would share a picture of your wedding day with me. I truly think you both were the most gorgeous bride and groom I have ever seen. I hope you both are able to return soon for an even more relaxing week. So thrilled both of you now have a shared history with my home. Congratulations and looking forward to your return! Kathleen

Our stay at the Hunky Dory was fantastic! It felt like the perfect blend of having our own charming island home and being on a relaxing vacation. The place was comfortable, clean, and charming. The outdoor shower and private yard were all my Nantucket dreams come true. The location was perfect – close enough to explore everything by foot or bike, but also quiet and peaceful. Kathleen, the host, was amazing! She was helpful and friendly, sharing all her local knowledge and ensuring we had all the info we needed for a good stay. We loved it so much, we already booked again for next year! This place is a treasure – shhh, don't tell everyone!

Relaxing week at The Honky Dory!!

I highly recommend Kathleen's place! I went to Nantucket for a week with my husband, 2 daughters and some of their friends. Kathleen's cottage is so comfortable and relaxing. She has everything you would need. The house is very roomy and quiet in a great section of the island. My teenage daughters could easily walk into town with their friends. We booked the same week for next year before we even left the island! Kathleen is very responsive and kind. Highly recommend this gem of a place.

Perfect getaway

This was a darling comfortable cottage near town. It was so nice for my daughters and I. The upstairs ceilings were a bit of a challenge for my tall daughters, but they didn’t mind. I’m not used to recycling so I was nervous about doing it wrong and getting a fine, but I think we figured it out. Although it is easier to stay in a hotel-you don’t have to wash towels or pay an extra fee-we really loved being together in an adorable cottage. Nantucket is so charming and staying in a cottage just added to the romance of the town. Wonderful host!

Family vacation

We were pleased with location of the home. Walking distance to town. Downtown Nantucket is beautiful with plenty to do. We also rented a car at Young’s Bike Shop and really enjoyed exploring the island. The home was nice with a great private outdoor space. The downstairs bedroom is nice with own bathroom, which is the only bathroom downstairs. The bedrooms upstairs with queen and double beds are small, but ok. The twin beds are just outside the doors to the other bedrooms and a bit awkward. Only 1 small bathroom upstairs. Actual beds were not very comfortable. The family room area was a nice size and the kitchen was also big enough for our group to gather.

Michael, I was happy to hear that you loved the location of "Hunky Dory." It is an ideal location for most people. Just so there is no confusion, the downstairs full bathroom is in the hallway, not in the king bedroom. The pictures on the website have always clearly shown the size of the bedrooms. The descriptions of the twin bedrooms have always stated that they are walk-thru as well. All future guests have accurate pictures and descriptions of all rooms before booking, so I am a bit confused as to why it was awkward since that was known in advance. There are homes with different sleeping arrangements and even ensuite bathrooms for those who choose to pay for that luxury or stay in a less ideal location. Immediately upon your check-in I text you to let me know if you need anything. So of course I was disappointed to hear for the first time in your review that you found any beds uncomfortable. I reached out to you after reading your review to determine the specific issue of course. I understand everyone has different tastes in mattresses, but I certainly would have arranged for alternates had I been aware you found the twins that you and your wife slept in too firm. I had several conversations and texts with your extended family member the morning after your first night, when she and I spoke about her need for a dvd player. Of course any issue concerning the twin beds was never brought up then either. I trust you heard from her how responsive I was to her request for a dvd player so she could show personal movies that evening. I was thrilled that I was able to borrow a dvd player after hours of searching for one for sale on island, as everyone I contacted could not find one for sale there. I had it delivered that very same afternoon. I was a bit disappointed that you did not acknowledge my immediate response to that request in your review, but I assume you were aware of it, and known then you could have reached out to see how I could accommodate you regarding your issue with the twin beds. I assumed after my text upon check in, and my efforts the very next morning concerning the dvd player, that it was obvious that your family's needs were of my utmost concern.

Thank you Clair for taking the time to review "Hunky Dory" after your stay. You sure had some fun activities planned during your stay. I know your guests made wonderful memories. You were wonderful guests and also deserving of a five-star review. My closest neighbors are wonderful year-round residents. When my next-door neighbor heard about your outdoor yoga session in the backyard, she was very jealous. Your friends are lucky to have enjoyed such a pampered weekend with chefs and yoga, a true five-star weekend. Certainly more fun than the weekend hosted by Jennifer Garner in the new Five Star Weekend movie set on the island that is coming out in July. I hope you return next year! Kathleen

Acerca del anfitrión

Anfitrión: Kathleen Conway

Foto de perfil del anfitrión
I grew up north of Boston but live in the South. I am a responsive home owner committed to making sure my guests enjoy my home and the island as much as I do. I travel to the island frequently to enjoy and check on "Hunky Dory". I have a caretaking company to handle any issues that may arise during your stay. I am easy to reach by cell phone, text or email if there are any questions or issues that arise not covered by the house instructions. I love to sail, kayak, bike and eat great food when I am on island. I also surf at Cisco beach and hope to get better each year.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

I had looked for the perfect Nantucket home for almost two years when I found "Hunky Dory". It was love at first sight, even before I had stepped inside. It was the house I dreamed of finding, historic, light filled and the perfect location. Many island owners have quarter boards with their house's name carved in wood. A book about the history and meaning of different Nantucket quarter boards was written a few years ago. My quarter board has its name and carvings of Brant Point and Sankaty Light, along with island flowers. I chose the name because when I am at the house enjoying family or friends, everything really is hunky dory. I loved vacationing on the island for years before I bought "Hunky Dory." I wanted a home close enough to downtown to easily walk there, especially in the summer when it is very difficult to find parking. I also wanted to be close to the Surfside bike path and the harbor to kayak. Having a home large enough to enjoy with my family and friends, but with history, was very important. I wanted a home with character that made me feel very connected to the island's history. Myself and my VRBO guests have celebrated many happy occasions and made many cherished memories at "Hunky Dory." I love hearing what history my guests have with the island or why they will be visiting. I also love to hear from first time island visitors about how they fell in love with my house and the island. I really enjoy spending more time there during the different seasons and enjoying the various events such as Daffodil Festival weekend, Wine Festival weekend, Nantucket Film Festival week, the Fourth of July events, Boston Pops on the Beach, the Halloween parade, the Cold Turkey Plunge and Christmas tree lighting over Thanksgiving week, and of course the beloved Christmas Stroll.

"Hunky Dory" has an enclosed large grass backyard compared to many homes in the historic district. Mature landscaping surrounds the yard/patio. On Nantucket it is more fun to be outside for meals during warm weather, so I have picnic table seating for 11 and a children's picnic table. Having enough room and a safe enclosed area for children to play or adults to have a quiet spot to read or relax in the hammock is a wonderful benefit of this home. When you have to be inside, the home has many windows filling it with natural light. The narrow lane the house is situated on is quiet and residential. The Surfside beach bike path is at the top of the street. The Cisco brewery/beach bike path and Madaket bike paths are a 5-10 minute bike ride from the house.. After the beach or biking, nothing beats a warm shower outside in the private enclosed outdoor shower. At night you can even enjoy a hot shower under the stars. I love the outdoor shower so much I had one built at my home in the South, which I enjoy year round. My guests love the large kitchen to hang out or or eat in since it comfortably seats 11 people. The dining room table extends to seat 11 as well. Two wonderful historic sites, the Old Mill and the second oldest African American Meeting House are just a 3 minute walk from the house. One of the many ways to walk downtown is on a sidewalk passing gorgeous mansions and flowers. Or you can explore the side streets to get to Main Street as well, so you can walk a different way for your entire stay, each as beautiful as the next. It is a 10 minute walk to the harbor beach where you can rent a kayak or paddleboard or have Sayles Seafood cook lobsters or grilled/fried seafood to eat there or take back to the house. Or purchase freshly caught fish there to grill on the Weber gas or charcoal grills. The location is perfect for short stays when you do not want to take a car over or rent a car. Both grocery stores and the island wide shuttle are a 10 minute walk away.
