White Elephant, Nantucket MA

They say an elephant never forgets but, in this case, staying at the White Elephant in Nantucket, Mass., is a vacation you'll never forget.

This harbor side hotel that has been around since the 1920s stands as a Nantucket island tradition -- and one that has grown tremendously through the years from cottages into a first class, upscale lodging establishment (cottages are still available, too!). The waterfront location is worth the price of admission alone, but you also get light-filled guest rooms (most with fireplaces), the Brant Point restaurant with its seafood, steak and chicken selections, a library and fitness center.

You are also minutes from the heart of the beautiful Nantucket central district with its picturesque streets, boutiques, galleries, museums, cafes and restaurants.
