“The Centerboard Nantucket impresses with its clean, beautifully decorated rooms and quiet setting, a short walk from downtown attractions. While rooms might be compact and stairs steep, the overall experience feels like staying in a well-cared-for home, complete with thoughtful touches like in-room coffee makers and a downstairs area for tea and trail mix. It presents an appealing, more affordable option for an island stay.”
