Waterfront holiday rentals in Nantucket County

This is our favorite place to stay each year. It is a wonderful place and Elizabeth is a PERFECT host.

Cozy and beautiful space! The property is so pretty and well kept. I don’t feel the pictures even do it justice! Water view. Everything you could need in this guest house. Debra was great and easy to communicate with! The Wave transportation was closed in madaket during the off season (we came last weekend of September. It was open in other parts of the island) so we took cabs most places, which is pricey. Not many Ubers to be found at this part of island on off season, so cabs were our best bet! Great stay and would love to come back!

I had a restful stay at Mark's place. It's in walking distance to the ferry along with other amenities like bike rental, supermarket, local restaurants, the Net Result, as well as the ferry terminal. It's a great option for anyone who wants to visit MV without a car as local buses are also nearby. Mark tends to his home with care. It's a distinctive place with tons of character, just like MV, which is why I've been returning to the island for 30+ years. I'll be back!

I had an incredible experience staying at Monica and TJ’s place! From the moment I arrived, everything was seamless. The check-in process was smooth, and the home was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated. The location was perfect, making it easy to explore the area. The host was incredibly accommodating and responsive, ensuring I had everything I needed throughout my stay. The little touches, like [mention any standout amenities, e.g., complimentary snacks, extra towels, a well-stocked kitchen], made the experience even better. I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. I’ll definitely be booking again in the future!

Martha and her place was perfect for my needs. Martha was a pleasure to talk to. She was always available and very cool. I'll be back! Thank you Martha

The accommodation was lovely and the location was great. Highly recommend!

We had an excellent girl's trip staying at Nell's! The location can't be beat (especially if you don't have a car on the island) and it is less than a 10 minute walk into town. We also loved the outdoor shower. Would definitely recommend!

House is in a lovely family-friendly neighborhood just steps from the fishing pond and beach and walking distance to Poppanesset Resort and shops. House is a tidy rancher with spacious, bright kitchen (skylight and huge island with plenty of seating). Shared living area features two sitting areas, dining rolm table, large double fireplace (not used), and roomy deck and yards. Bedrooms are ideal for a family…primary with queen bed (en suite bath) and two secondaries with a pair of twin beds each (shared bath in hall). It’s pricey, but so is the neighborhood and location so close to the shore and amenities!

We loved the location at the end of a little road so no through traffic (fresh eggs next door too). The pond is fun with lots of wildlife, sometimes we could hear the roosters next door. The sunsets are lovely from the home as well. Seating in the living room great and found it to be quiet when sleeping at night. The two bedrooms on the lower level both have heat pumps (for heat/cooling) we have always had great luck with (for temperature control in the bedrooms). Loved sitting on the back deck and having the resident geese wandering around. Lovely property!

This is a lovely home, on Clark's Cove peninsula, in "The Whaling City"! All amenities are included, & it's just steps away from the beach & historic Hazelwood Park! Also, the deck faces west, so there are magnificent sunsets every evening! We really enjoyed our stay here, & we're spreading the word amongst family & friends!

We stayed at Lisa’s place for three nights and it was a 10/10 experience. Lisa was a fantastic host and was very helpful with island recommendations prior to our trip. The property itself is stunning and although we wanted to explore the island, the property also provided a beautiful landscape to just relax. Even given its private, peaceful location, it was still so convenient to town. The house is an adorable converted barn that has incredible, rustic charm and the decor was so beautifully thought out. Before we even left we were talking about booking again in the future. We definitely recommend booking here!

Incredible! A perfect spot to gather and reflect with amazing friends. Liza was an excellent host and the property is very special!

Nice location with great views of the ocean. JP was quick to respond. Enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful cottage in a great location. We came here off season with our infant son. The cottage had everything we needed including a pack and play. We loved the view from the windows and spent lots of time looking at the waves and seagulls. The beach was sandy and lovely and we had a great walk around. Would definitely come here again during warmer days.

Kristine was a fantastic host and her home was perfect for our little getaway with some friends! The decor was interior designer-selected quality, and the hot tub was a great bonus! We’d definitely come back again.

I have been going to Nantucket for 30+ years. We always stayed in Surfside but you definitely need a car if You are that far out. We decided in town would be better since we weren’t bringing a car and this spot was perfect. We could walk to shops and restaurants so it worked out great. The house was cozy and had everything we needed for our vacation. Super clean and comfortable. The back deck setting is beautiful. Loved being close to Hatches and Cumberland Farms for ice Cream runs. Would definitely book again.

My all-time favorite place to stay in Oak Bluffs and Adrienne is a phenomenal host. A 5 minute walk to Ocean Park and Circuit Avenue. No detail is left unattended. She is both proactive and responsive and her home is beautiful. On some days I had to balance the urge to relax in the peacefulness of her home with the urge to visit the beauty of the beach. I did both. But since the unit has a balcony, I also enjoyed the beachfront views and solitude. Adrienne has made at least two important upgrades that make her already lovely home even more attractive: 1) She added a seating nook in the living room’s bay window - two leather bar height chairs and a three-tier table overlooking the beach and Seaview Avenue; and 2) she replaced the two single beds in the first bedroom with two double beds which enables her to increase occupancy. Although I was traveling solo this visit, I do plan to visit again with friends. Book it and fall in love with it!

this is a great unit with lots of space for the family. so much to do on the cape and near by. but you can just park the car and just stay put with a beach and pool! everything went perfect

Heather's place is beautiful! An amazing location with close proximity to the OB steamship authority station, a number of bus lines, and the beach! The view and location are unbeatable! Heather was also super responsive in terms of coordinating flexible check-in/check-out times which was very much appreciated. Overall, would definitely recommend to anyone visiting OB :)

Rose was great She greeted us and show us around. When we had questions she responded quickly messages. Would definitely stay there again.

Patrick’s place was absolutely perfect! We made great use of the kitchen with no problem whatsoever. We really appreciated the nearby trail to get some fresh air and enjoyed being close to a grocery store for cooking meals. Highly recommend this place if you want a quiet laidback place to rest and refit!

Our second visit. We love the place. Quiet but close to great beaches and the Popponesset Marketplace is 2 minutes walk away, with fish restaurants and small stores with necessities (including wine and beer!). A highlight of this visit was sitting on the patio in the morning and 3 times seeing an osprey dive to the pond and catch a fish.
