We really enjoyed our stay at the Centerboard. There is no onsite management as it’s a small property with just a handful of rooms, but staff was easily reachable via text. I would definitely stay here again!

Spotless room, very hot shower and luxury shampoo and lotion. The location was terrific and only 3 blocks from the hustle and bustle of the town’s center activity. Staff very friendly. Living area perfect for reading.

I’ve been coming to Nantucket for decades, and this is literally the perfect location was wonderful and accommodated my early arrival and late ferry by allowing us to leave our small bags in the drawing room. Will definitely return and have recommended to many.

Clean, quaint and convenient...

The Centerboard is a beautiful little Inn a short walk from downtown. The staff was friendly and very helpful as we arrived early and were allowed to get into our room at that time. There are not a lot of amenities, but the Centerboard is spotlessly clean and we enjoyed our stay.
