This hotel is so cute! It has an excellent restaurant, Sister Ship, right on property, which was one of our best meals on the island. Spent a lovely afternoon reading on their covered porch in their adorable courtyard. Staff was all friendly and quick to respond to requests. 10/10!

This property has no lobby. The check in is a hallway in the front of the hotel. The employees are not very friendly and should be, because you’re paying a premium price. The common areas and courtyards are beautiful and well appointed, and the location is very good. Overall, I was underwhelmed with the Faraway Nantucket.

ROOM 207 was expensive, too small. The room was dark w/ no ceiling light, a disconnected table lamp and too few outlets. One shade was up and one was down because one didn't work properly. Doors stuck both in room, and outside bathroom. Adding insult to injury, room door alarm kept going off.There was a small refrigerator with nothing welcoming in it. No phone to reach personnel...and we were 3 flights up with no elevator, and no one to help us UP the steep, narrow staircase with all our luggage. It felt like, be grateful, because you are in Nantucket. Also in the am ONLY coffee was offered...3 flights down on the first floor. No value here.
