The Carriage House is a quick walk from the ferries and the bustling downtown area, and a pleasant bike-ride to the beaches on the other side of the island. It has small, clean rooms (ours had a private bathroom) and a simple, tasty breakfast of muffins, fruit and cereal. The owner, Haziel, is a bit of a character, but he's... More

Very nice, quaint B&B well-situated in Nantucket.. The rooms are comfortable, the breakfast tasty and more than adequate, with excellent home-baked cookies, treats and lemonade available in the afternoon. The Innkeeper has a very practical working knowledge of the island and was most helpful. The price is right compared to other offerings in town. We would love to return! More

This BnB was perfectly located just above Main Street down this crushed shell driveway/street. We walked up five blocks from Straight Wharf with two pieces of luggage each. Close enough to walk, but with the cobblestone streets and brick paved sidewalk, a taxi would have been a little easier in the humid heat! We stayed in a room with its... More

My husband and I recently stayed at the Carriage House with friends. It was very nice... clean, lovely home, great location (down a little lane) and not far from town. The best part was the owners, Haziel and his wife Tomome. Before we even left home, Haziel spent a lot of time answering our travel questions about Nantucket and Cape... More

Haziel was there to greet us at the door with a warm and friendly welcome. I found the rooms to be very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was served on the garden deck. It consisted of the BEST homemade granola, warm muffins, cut up fresh fruit, juice and coffee. The Carriage House is centrally located and is within walking distance to... More

He may be doing a study on people and their reactions! After all, he claims to have been a teacher. Haziel dropped the "F Bomb" while retelling an episode (to a group of us) in his teaching career that a student had said! Very out of place! No need that we knew!!! Someone had moved a small bouquet of roses... More

On our recent trip to Nantucket, we booked two nights at The Carriage House and definitely enjoyed our stay. We were looking for an island retreat to get away from a shamefully dirty farmhouse we'd rented for the week in the Stockbridge area of Massachusetts, and we were delighted to find The Carriage House impeccably clean and comfortable. The rooms... More

Well, I have to say I did my research before going to Nantucket, like many of you are now reading these reviews. I have to say that all that I read were spot on. This place has fantastic location. It is in a central, yet very quiet location. Even by Nantucket standards. Especially for the price, you could not ask... More

I'm not sure if "hard times" have hit this place, but the "gourmet" breakfast so many speak of was no where to be seen. Basically it was a muffin and mixed fruit. There was cereal, but it consisted of cheerios, corn flakes, cinnamon toast crunch and whatever other ends of cereals they could find to throw in a container. There... More

I stayed at the Carriage House along with my family and 8 relatives and found the experience to be very positive. The rates are reasonable, the location right downtown just can't be beat, and the innkeeper Haziel is very accommodating and knowledgeable. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. The house is old and charming but well-furnished. The breakfasts were... More
