Overview
Popular with honeymooners, The Wauwinet sits in a quieter northern corner of Nantucket island, less than 2 miles from the Coskata-Coatue Wildlife Refuge. Here, you can stretch out your sea legs on one of two private beaches or sample the local seafood at the ever-popular TOPPER's restaurant. The attentive service staff deserves a mention as well: Everyone, from the reservations assistants to the cleaning staff, receives high praise from guests. The concierge even makes pre-vacation planning phone calls. The luxurious rooms and cottages, outfitted in soothing yellow tones with wooden furnishings, free Wi-Fi access and 400-thread-count Pratesi linens, leave guests vying for more time at this romantic retreat. Also included in your room rate: coffee and pastries in the morning and evening port and cheese. Because The Wauwinet is a member of the Relais & Châteaux family, Club 5C members can earn or redeem points here for additional benefits. Keep in mind: The Wauwinet is a seasonal property, open from late April to the end of October.

Critic Reviews
Guests come here to relax, and take in the quiet (although during the summer, it can get busy and sometimes that quiet can be interrupted by other guests), and the views.
If refuge is what you want, refuge is what you’ll get at this luxury property at the head of the harbor, a 20-minute car ride from town.
This resplendently updated 1850 resort straddles a "haulover" poised between ocean and bay (think beaches on both sides), and you can head out by complimentary van or launch to enjoy ultimate pampering (the staff-to-guest ratio exceeds one-to-one).
