Accolades
Zagat Survey Brant Point Grill highly rated for 2011/12 survey
"Gorgeous views of a lovely garden, Children's Beach and the ferries coming and going in Nantucket Harbor are romantic in the evening and even better in the sunlight at this fabulous all-day steak-and-seafooder in a luxury inn, but the fare is equally visually appealing and tastes wonderful too (brunch is particularly awesome) with a wine list to match . . ."
The New York Times
"downtown Nantucket’s only true resort property"
Northshore
"offers all the amenities of home while letting guests enjoy breathtaking views of the harbor. Lavish rooms as well as private cottage rentals are available to make this island getaway that much more personal."
Victoria
"Thoughtful touches at the White Elephant..., let guests know that their comfort is of utmost importance."
Paradizo
"The White Elephant is one of Nantucket's luxury vacation icons."
New England Travel & Life
"The White Elephant is about as casual-chic as Nantucket living gets."
Forbes Life
"The breezy, elegant White Elephant has been the in-town hotel of choice for generations."
Veranda
"White Elephant: Nantucket's Unforgettable Hotel...one of the most exclusive resorts on the island that embodies the Nantucket lifestyle. White Elephant combines Nantucket's traditional local charm with the modern-day luxuries of a sophisticated hotel."
"Whether relaxing in the library with a glass of port, or lounging on the white, wicker furniture with a cool glass of lemonade, guests can still enjoy the same breathtaking views and experience a slice of Nantucket history."
Condé Nast Traveler
"Ideal for a weekend respite, this building and cottages on Nantucket Harbor are within walking distance of beaches, shopping, and restaurants. Fresh flowers in the lobby complement the property's unassuming low-key sophistication."
Departures
"Pristine waterfront rooms and cottages within walking distance of town."
