Customer's reviews

Lucky us! We had the good fortune to book our stay at the Nantucket Whale Inn during our California trip in July. The Inn exceeded our expectations in every way. The bright, window-filled Light Ship room we stayed in had every amenity imaginable and a wonderfully comfortable King size bed. Breakfast was scrumptious, the evening wine bar was a welcome respite, and the location of the Inn to Half Moon Bay's quaint downtown area with interesting shops and eateries was just perfect. So wish we had booked more nights during our trip. The room rates are quite reasonable given all the Inn has to offer. When we next visit this part of California, the Nantucket Whale Inn will definitely be on our itinerary. Thank you for such a great experience! ~ lp a
I often travel solo due to my career and choose to stay at locally owned boutique hotels and Bed & Breakfasts. Two locals from Half Moon Bay suggested I stay at the Nantucket Whale Inn. My experience was fantastic from the moment I checked in until I realized I had to go back to work 3 days later:(. The Nantucket is superior! I thoroughly loved my room (Great Point). The huge comfy bed and fireplace were very cool! The claw foot tub! Loved!! The style and decor of this historic home is No.Cal. modern meets east coast traditional seashore comfort. Wow! The beaches and town are only a short walk away! I highly recommend The Nantucket Whale Inn..... Oh and thank you David & Jerry for the Distillery restaurant/Moss Beach recommendation! I really enjoyed myself and I hope to return soon to your home! ~ Mplsbeb B
Highly recommend anyone looking for quiet get-away with exceptional service from the minute you arrived until the morning you leave! David is absolutely wonderful. The rooms are quaint and comfortable with a Nantucket vibe. Breakfast was amazing every morning. The back patio is filled with flowers, trees, a water fountain and fire pit which made it a perfect spot to read a book, play a round of cards or sit and enjoy a glass of wine. We felt at home with such personal attention! Not to mention the town is darling and everything was within walking distance including the beach that had a bike path that went on for miles! A perfect place to run, ride a bike or take a stroll enjoying the beautiful beach views! We will definitely return! ~ Diane S
