Family Owned and Operated since 1958
Our independently run resort was purchased by the Currie family in 1958. During the three generations of the family’s ownership, the hotel has added 27 elegant rooms and suites, a superb exercise and spa facility, a resort only private bar & café and a stunning pool area. The historic lobby and pavilion have been restored with careful attention being paid to preserving the integrity of the original design.

Ideally Located
The hotel sits on the beach just one mile from the very center of the town of Nantucket with all its shops, restaurants and quaint cobblestone streets. Our guests step from their room right onto a beautiful private beach. There are simply no other hotels on Nantucket and few in the world, which offer lovely beachfront rooms, an intimate resort setting and such close proximity to a fabulous town.

Enjoy the Full Range of Cliffside's Facilities
Our guests can start their day in Nantucket’s finest gym and then move on to the sheltered pool area before heading out to the beach. In the evening, the sun sets into the ocean right before your eyes. Enjoy a glass of wine or a cocktail at the private bar overlooking the beach or perhaps take your drink back to your own private deck. Understandably, many of our guests find it hard to leave the hotel.

Awards and Recognition
Cliffside was named the 2009 gold (best) resort / hotel on Nantucket by Cape Cod Life Magazine, and was a past editor’s choice, as best hotel on Nantucket by Cape Cod Travel Magazine.
