What guests say
8.9 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 151 guest reviews
The Martin earns consistently strong marks for its prime location close to downtown Nantucket, spotless rooms, and the warm, hands-on hospitality of innkeeper David. The main friction points are a breakfast offering that some guests found too modest, limited parking in peak season, and a handful of room-specific layout concerns. Overall sentiment is very positive, with multiple guests noting they would return.
