Our family of 7 absolutely loved our stay! The home was in a great location, had everything we needed and more, and Todd was an excellent host. We can’t wait to visit again!
Very cute and quaint rental. The house was stocked with lots of towels and amenities that you could need for your stay which was super helpful and nice! We used the shed in the backyard to store our luggage as well before and after our check in/out period which was so helpful. The location is very close to the airport and right by a bus stop but still walkable to town. We all loved our stay here and would recommend to all of our friends that want to come visit as well!
Clean and well appointed home and plenty of room for 7 adults. Centrally located, charming neighborhood with parking so very easy to get around the island. The host was quick to respond to my questions about this amazing property. Would definitely return to stay here in the future! Thanks Todd and Susan!
This was our 40th anniversary of our first visit to the far away island. " You've Got Whale " was a fitting location at which to celebrate with our 4 guests from Germany.
Visited Nantucket for a getaway to ride bikes and see the island. It was great to have the bike path just at the end of the neighborhood drive! We rode all the way to Siasconset! The home was comfortable and clean, and has a very well equipped kitchen and great grill in the beautiful backyard. Easy access to all parts of the island!
My friends and I had a lovely stay at this beautiful home on Nantucket! The rooms were perfect for my group of 4 moms enjoying the stroll and had all the amenities anyone could ask for. Todd was incredibly responsive and flexible which was much appreciated. I would highly recommended staying at this property at any point. Thanks again!
It was my family and I’s first time going to Nantucket and this was the perfect home for us! It was beautifully decorated with that signature island touch. Had lots of beach chairs and towels. We had an inconvenience but Todd was very quick to respond and had a person quickly come to resolve the problem. Overall, I would recommend this house to other friends and family!
Had a lovely time - property nicely kept with all ammenities thoughtfully provided. Hosts were very helpful and timely when some minor issues arose. Before going we were a bit concerned about location not being in town but it was very good with great food market, liqour store, ice cream place and bike rental close by. We rented a car - it would be a bit difficult shopping etcxwithout
Perfect home for our family of five. Home is in excellent condition and super clean. Everything in working order in the home unlike some rentals we’ve stayed at in the past. Convenient mid island condition. Appreciate the extras provided by our hosts beach chairs, towels, coolers and coffee options. We also really enjoyed roasting marshmallows around the firebowl in the evening. Patio area very nice. Highly recommend!
This beautiful and immaculate property is exactly what is advertised and so much more. The owners thought of everything to make our stay enjoyable. The property is close to town, there is a playground and running/walking path nearby and the beaches are a short drive. The house has a fully stocked kitchen, plenty of games, coolers, beach toys and chairs. The beds were super comfortable and the space was perfect for our family of 5. The best part about this property was the owners. They were incredibly communicative and responded within minutes to any questions. I cannot recommend this property enough if you want to have a comfortable and relaxing stay on Nantucket.
Spacious and well maintained home, quiet neighborhood close to the center of town. Open floor plan first floor, private yard, all the conveniences & comfort of home!
We truly enjoyed our Nantucket vacation at you've got whale. It was super conveniently located too the town and beaches while being in a quiet neighborhood that the kids could play safely in. Very comfortable finishes and lay out perfectly accommodated extended family.
This house was perfect for our family. It had everything we needed and was so convenient to all. Todd was also so responsive before, during and after our stay. The house is decorated beautifully. Our first time on the island and we will definitely stay here again when we return!!
We had an amazing time in Nantucket. Todd and Susan’s home was absolutely perfect. We couldn’t have imagined a better place. It had everything you could possibly need and more. It was cozy, warm and welcoming from the first day until the last. Our family had an awesome time at You Got Whale. We can’t wait to return.
5 stars isn’t enough! I would say a 10. Everything was even better than the pictures. They had a lot of amenities that I usually bring. They supplied a Yeti cooler which surprised me. There was dish soap, laundry soap, plenty of toilet pater and paper towel. So many place settings and appliances in the kitchen. We had the Best time!!!
Susan and Todd's home is absolutely gorgeous. The entire process from check in to check out was extremely easy. We had an excellent time and would love to visit again. Thank you Susan and Todd for allowing us to stay in your home and being so flexible. communicative and kind to us.
We loved our stay!! Everything we could need and so clean!!! Great communication with the owners. The private back yard was a big plus.
We would definitely stay again.
