The White Elephant, a historic Nantucket inn, located alongside the magnificent harbor, has been considered an island landmark since the 1920's. What began as an eclectic mix of cottages has evolved into a premier Nantucket inn that offers an unexpected blend of island charm and sophisticated amenities that is perfect for Nantucket, Massachusetts lodging.

The White Elephant sits serenely on the waterfront, yet is only minutes from the unique boutiques and art galleries, mouth-watering restaurants, and fascinating museums for which the island is known. The luxury hotel consists of 53 chic, light-filled guest rooms and suites, most with working fireplaces and harbor views. This inn in Nantucket also boasts 11 garden cottages and the signature loft space. All guests enjoy full access to the Library, fitness room, business lounge, and harbor side lawn.

Luxury Nantucket lodging at the White Elephant reflects the simplicity, understated elegance and tranquility for which Nantucket is renowned.
