Enjoy Nantucket from our convenient location in the Old Historic District, just a few minutes’ walk to the ferries, The Whaling Museum, Main Street shops, galleries and fine dining. Brant Point Lighthouse and in-town beaches are also just a short walk or bike ride away. Start your day with our sumptuous breakfast featuring home-baked specialties; relax and mingle at our popular weekly wine and cheese parties.
Our guest rooms have distinct personalities, much like the areas of Nantucket for which they're named. We have thirteen charming rooms ranging from quaint singles and doubles with shared bath, to elegant queen and king rooms with working fireplaces, to spacious master suites. Oriental rugs, fine woodwork, and wide pine floors grace our rooms. Returning guests often ask for ‘their’ room by name! You will too!
Come celebrate the special events that take place on Nantucket year-round., or create your own special event - a romantic getaway, girlfriends' weekend, anniversary or birthday treat, company meeting - we will be happy to assist you in making your stay at The Carlisle House Inn a memorable one. Gift certificates are a wonderful present, and we are happy to customize them for you - just give us a call!
