White Elephant Hotel Nantucket - Travel + Leisure's World's Best Hotels harborside landmark since the 1920s

Accommodations

White Elephant Hotel offers three distinct accommodation types across the Harborside hotel & Garden Cottages, INN & Residences, and downtown Lofts. All rooms include cable TV, a private bathroom, iPod docking station, and Wi-Fi, with some including harbor views, fireplaces, and luxury linens. The recently renovated rooms and cottages are set within a historic landmark that has been welcoming guests since the 1920s.

Dining

The on-site Brant Point Grill serves signature steaks and seafood dishes in its dining room or on the harbor-side terrace. This restaurant has been recognized for its high-quality dining and stunning views over Nantucket Harbor. Guests also have access to Topper's at the Wauwinet, a sister property with a Grand Award-winning wine list and sunset dining.

Spa & Wellness

The White Elephant Spa, located in the harborside hotel, provides massage and full-service spa treatments focusing on organic and natural products. Guests can use the fitness centre and participate in daily yoga sessions offered on the property. The heated pool area includes a pool bar and is enclosed, offering a calm setting for relaxation.

Family & Activities

Families have access to a children's playground and complimentary bicycle rentals to explore the island. The White Elephant provides a shuttle to Jetties Beach with chairs and umbrellas, plus a house car (BMW) available through a twice-daily lottery. For children, there are scheduled activities at the pool for two hours each day, and babysitting services are available upon request.
