Mariner House is nestled in the heart of town on Centre Street, Nantucket's oldest avenue, which was laid out in 1678. Everything you could ask for, from a barbershop to gourmet restaurants, is a short walk away. Just minutes from the resort, you can explore antiques shops, an art colony, and 13 restored homes or museums maintained by the Nantucket Historical Association. For sun, surf, and water sports, the beach is accessible by bike paths from the resort.
