Tucked in right next door to a wildlife sanctuary, The Wauwinet is a sanctuary itself. It is white lawn chairs. It is Herman Melville on the bedstand. It is a glass of brandy by a crackling, late autumn fire. It is the diversity of spring color after the monochrome of winter. It is an urge to walk barefoot on the beach wearing your best dress. It is total privacy. It is a group of congenial friends. it is a vacation for all of your senses. Your first time at The Wauwinet is never your last. You’re suddenly secretive. You don’t want to send anyone a postcard for fear they’ll tell everyone else. Every visit to this unique place leaves you with the same wonderful feeling—the Wauwinet feeling, a kind of we-do-it-every-year feeling that used to apply only to the family rituals of your childhood. The Wauwinet consists of twenty-six bedrooms and a cluster of charming individual cottages, all of varying and delightful character. There are two private beaches—one on the Atlantic, one on Nantucket Bay, and The Wauwinet’s grounds are a fantasy of gentle dunes, sandy paths, green lawn, trailing rose vines, flower gardens and sparkling, never-ending water views.
