We visited in Mid September 2008 with a 2 yr old. Pros: - Perfect location close to town and easy access from ferrys - They pick you up and take you to the ferry in a golf cart and help with luggage - Great to have your own kitchen - Perfect for staying with kids or toddlers since you have... more

We were very dissapointed to see how different our cottage was from others who were staying at the cottages as well and from the pictures we had seen in the brochure. Our cottage was very, very small, had much lower class amenities than many of the other cottages. Others also received gift bags from the cottages reception, our cottage had... more

We stayed at the Cottages in September 2008. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would return in the future. The Cottages are in a great location with excellent views of the harbor. The Cottage we stayed in has a living area with kitchen, sofa bed and dinning room table, as well as a seperate bathroom and bedroom. The living room... more

We were so excited to climb the steps to the "Crow's Nest" cottage and see the absolutely fabulous view of the warf from up there. Hundreds (if not thousands) of boats and mega yachts dotted the harbor below and, wow!, what a view! The porch was quite large with a table and chairs that we took full advantage of, getting... more

The Cottages are well-located but the service was unusually amateurish given the price. They repeatedly made mistakes in billing, dinner reservations, picking us up, etc. I wrote management twice with no response to these issues. more

We have been coming to Nantucket for over thirty years, we love the island and thought it would be fun to stay at the cottages as we have passed them many times while in town. Our cottage while on the dock and adequate was only air conditioned in the bedrooms, not the main room/kitchen and it was very hot during... more

What a very nice surprise! I had never been to Nantucket before and My wife expressed interest in a short trip. So I did my Traveladvisor research and found this gem of a location on very short notice. We went for the daffodil festival April 25-27 which is sort of the spring renewal on the Island. The accomodations were perfect... more

We traveled to Nantucket for the first time the week after Columbus day, this past October. We had reviewed several B&B and hotels online prior to booking with the Cottages at the Boat Basin. We had a wonderful stay. If you are looking for a quiet nautical setting, then the cottages are for you. We had a lovely 2 bedroom... more

Was desperate for a room for one night on Nantucket and found this available with really good TA reviews so I figured why not? We loved it, they gave us a great little cottage on South Wharf (two over from the ferry) and close enough to walk to everything but very quiet. We were right next to very expensive yachts.... more
