The Blue Iris is in an ideal location in Nantucket: easy walking distance to everything downtown but on a quiet side for rest and relaxation. The rooms are beautiful and comfortable. The staff is friendly and professional. They even loan out beach towels and beach chairs - a big plus if you fly to the island!
