A Place to Lay Our Weary Heads

Finally, we get a moment to relax.

I was worried about where we were going to stay. I can honestly say that this has kept me up at night. Wanting the place to be nice enough for a Honeymoon, I dreaded making any sort of decision that would prove otherwise. Not being familiar at all with any of this Island of Nantucket, we were torn between a few quaint Bed and Breakfasts. We wanted to experience the REAL Nantucket. Is there a better way to do this then by staying in an original home of one of the whaling captains?

There were other factors that had to be considered. Even though we wanted this to be quaint and true to the island’s history, we also had to be realistic and truthful with ourselves and our situation……

1) We needed a place that could provide a back up location for our nuptials should the weather prove less than ideal since we are working with a pretty tight timeline.
2) We want to have a great view for the small amount of time we are there and be comfortable.
3) We need a place that can arrange a few things for us, or at least make a few suggestions, prior to our arrival so our day can be perfect.

Anyway, the decision has been made. Let me announce our accommodations without further ado…………

We’ll be in a one of the Harbor View rooms. Have access to a Concierge (who is supposed to call us before hand to arrange whatever we need.) Receive “free” coffee and Danishes in the morning and be able to attend a Port and Cheese reception every afternoon. And enjoy luxury linens and crisp cotton bathrobes.

Balconies… Beaches… Boats… Brant Pointe… what more could we ask for?

With a hearty Thank You, feeling ultra-appreciative, and after a quick relaxing break…. Back to planning!
