The barnacle inn is a great location in town. The owners are nice and friendly! The Inn is comfortable and the rooms are a bit on the smaller side. We would have appreciated more fresh, updated amenities and furnishings in our room. It’s hard to beat the location of the Barnacle Inn!

Our host Susie could not have been more sweet! The Barnacle Inn is cozy and makes you feel at home. Kind of makes you feel like you’re visiting family that has a beautiful house in Nantucket. We found it to be quiet and soundproofed. Warm cookies in the afternoon is a nice touch! Open windows in our room, letting a nice cool breeze. Although air-conditioning is available. The location is perfect. Just a short walk to downtown plenty of restaurants and shopping. Not far from where the wave. (Public transportation) Drops you off and pick you up To visit many sites on the island.

We stayed here for our honeymoon and it was the best place we ever could have chosen. Suzie is the best, she was extremely kind, helpful, and really cares about her guests. The breakfast was always fresh and it was delicious, every single person on the staff was friendly and kind. I can not recommend the Barnacle Inn enough!

Charming and quaint. We loved our suite. A king and twin for my adult daughters in one large room with 2 dressers and 2 mirrors, and a queen room for me with my own sink. There was a connecting bathroom and hall. Breakfast in the garden was the perfect way to start each day. Beach towels and chairs are provided. Despite being close to main street, it was completely quiet and relaxing. Perfect location! Try Ships Inn restaurant next door. So convenient!

Charming hostess. Very welcoming. The location is close to town making it convenient to walk to restaurants, shopping and the ferry. This inn is a very good value especially compared to the other properties in the area. The room was was comfortable, quaint, dated but clean. Linens and towels can use sn update. Had everything we needed. I liked the available herbal tea and coffee available any time, bowls of fruit and cookies in the afternoon. A welcome envelope with my name, key and instructions made check-in easy. Some bathrooms in the Inn have been updated. Ours had a footed tub with shower. Old, but clean and adequate. A continental breakfast was attractively presented on trays where we ate outside in various parts of the pretty gardens and patios. I would suggest a hard boiled egg and a croissant instead of sweet pastries in addition to the yogurt, juice and fresh fruit which was very good. The church bells across the street ring on the hour but keeping the a/c fan unit on helps muffle the sound if you are a light sleeper. Bring noise cancelling ear plugs. Overall this is a great find!

This was an incredible experience!The inn is just lovely, like stepping back to a quieter, more gracious time, with so many extra special touches to make you time there an experience to treasure. Sumaya, her husband Anthony, and the staff of young ladies are so warm and friendly and welcoming it feels like staying with family or dear friends. I was there for my 75th birthday and they made it so special for me, I can’t thank them enough. The breakfast trays they serve are just so charming and filled with delicious treats they delighted my heart….and my stomach! I would highly recommend The Barnacle Inn as the place to stay if you want a true spirit of Nantucket experience!

I never leave reviews, however, I'm pausing to let the world know what a great place this is to visit. The owner, Suzie, is a very special individual that makes you feel right at home. Visiting Nantucket and feeling like home rather than a tourist is how I like to roll. Great place, great service, Impeccable hosting!

Suzi was amazing!! So friendly and thoughtful! Along with everyone else at the inn! We arrived on the island pretty early in the morning and they were kind enough to let us drop off our bags until check-in. The breakfast was delicious every morning and we got a great night sleep every night because the beds are incredibly comfortable! I give them a 10/10 on everything!! Would definitely recommend!
