"There are places that stand the test of time. The Wauw**et, a gray shingled manor serenely tucked away on Nantucket’s northeast corner, is one of them."

With the Nantucket Bay and the Atlantic Ocean on either side, guests come here for the coastal retreat complete with unmatched views, rich history, and intimate hospitality.

Thank you The Boston Globe for sharing in the celebration of our 150th year. 📰
