This VRBO was great! Dorothy had everything we needed for beach days including beach chairs, towels a cooler. The place was fully equipped with anything we could need or want and the location was perfectly central, making it easy to get to town and multiple different beaches. Would definitely stay here again!

Mid-Island Gem
The apartment was very clean & comfortable.
The bathroom is stocked with every toiletry you could think of in case you forgot something. The welcome bottle of wine was a nice surprise too.
The location was great, allowing us to bike all over the island. I got to see parts of the island I’ve never seen before.
We had very enjoyable stay and would highly recommend “Mid-Island Gem.” The apartment was so comfortable I didn’t want to leave. I can’t wait to come back to the island and stay here again.

Nantucket Gem
This Nantucket property was about as classy and clean as any VRBO rental could be! This two-bedroom private entry rental showcased the care and attention the owners put into this "apartment" as they built it. Great location in Nantucket with easy access to the local bus line. Beautifully landscaped surroundings really add to the overall charm. A must visit!

Great Stay
Pictures do not do this place justice. So clean, convenient to the different parts of the island. Great welcome gift of wine and cute cooler bag. About 20-30 walk downtown which is just right.
The property is newly constructed and beautifully furnished. The hosts are very friendly and thoughtful. They have even provided a nice bottle of wine! If you have forgotten your razor or toothbrush, they have thought of it! Our stay was delightful and we would love to stay here again.

Fantastic Nantucket Stay
My husband and I LOVED staying at Dorothy and Phil's for our time on Nantucket. The apartment is perfect for a couple, small family, or few friends. It was immaculate inside, exactly as it was pictured online. The location was a great jump off point for all the island has to offer. It was a quick 10 minute bike ride into town, or you can easily hop on the bus which stops right out in front. We're already looking forward to our next trip to Nantucket, and are planning on staying here again - hopefully for even longer so we can make good use of the awesome kitchen and outdoor space.

great mid island stay
Great upstairs apartment mid island - the bus is conveniently next door to the unit and you can get anywhere within 15-20 minutes on the island. I do recommend having a car or bikes if you stay here though. The hosts were extremely gracious and thoughtful - leaving the house well stocked and a check in gift! House is exactly as described in listing. It would be a little tight for 2 couples, but you have a nice little backyard area to eat outdoors! Thanks to Dorothy for the stay.

Lovely gem 💎
The perfect island location - easy access to beaches, trails & town. Dorothy & Phil we’re gracious & low key. The place is perfect & nicely appointed for an easy island stay.
Dorothy created a beautiful space. The location is conveniently located right on the bus route to get around the island. There is a wonderful nature trail nearby that takes you to the beach. My family really enjoyed our stay.

GREAT bang for your buck
This place was AWESOME. Dorothy does a phenomenal job of taking a Vrbo apartment rental and making it feel like a hotel experience. She provides a welcome card along with toiletries, towels, and beach towels! The backyard is sectioned off and private with a grill to save on eating out all meals. The apartment is actually a bit more spacious than pictures show with a full kitchen and living area with TV. We felt as though the stay was very private - but would have been able to contact Dorothy very easily if need be. We rented bikes - not a great route into town would be the only draw back. However a bus shuttle is available right at the end of the street. Overall HIGHLY recommend!

Perfect location
This was perfect Nantucket home base for our family of four. Great location (we biked the entire island) and very close to town. All the furnishings are high-end and beds very comfortable. Outdoor patio was nice and tranquil. Owners Dorothy and Phil did a wonderful job in building out the apartment - they thought of everything. Would definitely stay there again.

Last minute perfect getaway
My fiancé and I were looking for a last minute getaway on the island after we postponed our wedding and couldn’t have been happier with the stay. It was a perfect location, easy communication and beautiful apartment renovation. Would absolutely recommend people to stay here. Can’t say enough good things!
