Nantucket, Massachusetts

Nantucket is a beautiful tiny island just off Cape Cod. The town of Nantucket has a rich whaling history that is clearly depicted on its well-preserved ocean-front houses. Manicured privets, picturesque cobblestoned streets, steepled churches, fine seafood taverns, high-end boutiques, and alluring ocean views, create a relaxing setting where you can recharge your batteries with positive energy. It is a designated National Historic Landmark District and is one of the finest architectural examples of a New England seaport town (18th and 19th Centuries). While in Nantucket, don’t miss the opportunity to visit the Whaling Museum. It is worth mentioning that Nantucket has some of the highest home values in the USA (Forbes Magazine, 2008). Regarding budget accommodation, you must take into consideration the fact that Nantucket is a very popular summer destination. Thus, if planning to visit it in the summer, you must book early in advance because the top discount hotels get fully booked rather quickly.
