so, here is one property on a relatively small island. nantucket is beautiful, great restaurants, beautiful beaches, wonderful small town feeling yet high end shopping. that being said, this property, deservingly so, has a lot of negative reviews. i cannot imagine who wrote all the nice reviews that are posted. David is intrusive and hovers over you. Having a nice... More

This review is a little overdue. I organized this stay for my best friend's bachelorette party at the end of July. David was easy to make arrangements with and was great. He is a little specific on his rules for the inn, but nothing out of the ordinary. We booked 2 rooms in the cottages in the back of the... More

This is my second year staying here for the weekend of the Christmas Stroll. It is a beautiful place to stay. The room is clean and spacious. I love that is has hardwood floors and there are several rooms available with two beds per room since I travel with my Mother. The owner, David, is very nice and accommodating. There... More

I read the reviews before booking here and there were very few negative ones. After experiencing the place myself I can hardly believe there are positive reviews. I've reread the negative reviews and they are dead on. This place is small, cramped, and "old damp cottagy" smelling. But don't dare open the windows even when the air conditioning isn't on.... More

Whoever you are, I'm certainly sad your experience here at 76 Main was not all it could have been. I'm David, the manager/owner, and on behalf of Margie, our lovely girl who does our cleaning so faithfully and well, and myself, we were sad to read your review of your brief single night with us. All of our rooms are... More

In July, my two adult daughters and I visited Nantucket. We chose 76 Main St. just steps from downtown. The Inn also has a patio annex where we stayed. Our accommodations were very charming and lovely. The gardens are so beautiful and the patio relaxing and gorgeous. Our host David is very caring of his guests and helpful with information... More

Husband and I came here in September for a weekend away. The inn is in a nice spot in town. As many other reviewers said, the owner has his rules, and IMO a bit cranky. But I kind of knew what I was in for from the reviews.. We did feel like we had to whisper when coming back at... More

We recently stayed at 76 Main for a two night stay. We were very happy with every part of our stay. The Inn Keeper (David) was very helpful and took care to make sure we felt welcomed when we arrived. He remained respectfully out of sight but was always available to answer our questions or provide anything we needed. The... More

The Inn was charming and I understand that the owner takes pride in his work and establishment. However, I am sure there were no hidden cameras but there is a strange vibe. Having someone clean up a spill or basically follow you around and hover over you , is NOT relaxing! If I heard"push through" 15 times at breakfast, referring... More

Thanks for your time in speaking, the basics of it all seems to be to just ease up on the people-relating part of being there as the owner and let be--I'll keep trying to do that---by the way, the door is not broken , just designed to let all of you guests out without having to reach for the handle...
