10/10 Exceptional

Excellent hotel!
Andrea, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff is very nice. The room was clean. The sheets are great. The rooms need lamp light. And the room was on first floor overlooking neighbors trash so we kept shades down so the room was super dark and a bit depressing.

August in Nantucket

We loved the hotel, the courtyard, and the proximity to all of Nantucket. It was an amazing location, with great rooms, great service, and a wonderful bar, restaurant, and lounge. All of the employees were wonderful as well. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
Greg, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay, would definitely return

We just returned from a wedding on Nantucket, staying at the Faraway property. We loved the "downtown Nantucket" location, helpful and responsive staff, clean and updated rooms, sizable and comfortable courtyard sitting area, and access to bikes, beach towels and chairs, etc. We'd definitely return. Our only complaint would be that we had a loud AC wall unit, and there were sitting chairs right outside our ground floor room window where the same couple would sit or take work calls in the morning, so we'd avoid that room next time.

Old school property decorated so cute. Comfy beds, great linens, fantastic location. Staff attentive via text.
Karleen, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean, cute & convenient

Had a great stay at The Faraway! Property and room are very clean, well appointed, generally comfortable, although extremely tight (as is almost everything in town on ACK). Appreciated the friendly, helpful service and convenient location.

Beautoful inspide of the hick-ups

The check-in was only at 4 PM. The front desk was not informed neither at check-in not at check-out. our Amex card was cancelled because the desk could not identify the vendor ORCL.
Herma, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is stunning! The courtyard when you first walk in is surrounded by hydrangea’s in every color and the grounds are impeccable!! We stayed in the garden king room which was pie big for my husband and our 15 year old daughter. It’s also located right in the Herat of the island steps from all the shopping and restaurants! I cannot say more positive things about this beautiful hotel!
Marion, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect Stay! right in the heart of downtown. The terrace is a nice place to enjoy the atmosphere.
Marijo, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

I wish the bathrooms were bigger and had a counter shower and bathroom area is in need of updating.
elizabeth, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent location, beautiful grounds, and nicely decorated. The food was also very good however, the service, at the front desk, as well as the bar, was hit or miss. The blonde woman at the front desk was the most courteous and helpful of those with whom we interacted.
Freya, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place clean new.
Dylan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved the vibes! Beautiful, lively atmosphere. No early check in or late check out available. And the coffee shop wasn't open on a Monday. Overall, beautiful!
ERICA, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The place is very charming, but go after the season opens as it does not have the bar open or the coffee shop open before the season is in full swing.
Robby, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not worth the cost at all.

Place looked nice, but staying there was AWFUL. The mattress was outdated and extremely uncomfortable/hard. Every pillow in our room looks nice, but went flat instantly. The hallway was extremely loud with slamming doors all night. The floor above us stomped all night and the walls are paper thing, so we heard every nuance of the neighbors… love making. Needless to say we got zero sleep and got to pay $900 for that. The one positive is the bar area is cool and has extremely friendly bartenders
Josiah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Only problem was the noise from the restaurant. Very clean and comfortable room.
Karen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great hotel, great location, awesome staff. Our “Petite King” room was clean and nice but absolutely tiny and in the 3rd floor eaves so you couldn’t stand up. Next time I’d upgrade to another type of room but I would definitely stay there again!
Sara, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Front desk staff was inflexible and slow in checking and checking out. More experienced staff should be manning the front desk. Further, it was unreal to see the front desk staff dressed in a southern plantation servant style. Made me feel uncomfortable.

2/10 Poor

Unacceptable Disregard for Accessibility & Health

Our stay at Faraway in Nantucket was unacceptable. I informed the property that my 78-year-old mother has COPD and cannot climb stairs. Despite this, we were placed on the 4th floor with no elevator. When we requested a room change—offering to take any downgrade—they refused and dismissed our concerns completely. This is not only a failure in hospitality, but also a disregard for basic accessibility standards and ADA compliance. Guests with health conditions deserve safe accommodations. This experience was stressful, dangerous, and deeply disappointing. I will never return and strongly caution others, especially anyone with mobility or health concerns, to avoid this property.
