Thank you!! You made our engagement weekend special, not only were we quick best friends, your staff treated us like family.
Thank you for the thoughtful amenities in our rooms upon check in. The sparkling wine and luggage tags were a nice surprise and my friend enjoyed her birthday macaroons. Your front desk agent, Christian was so kind to help arrange a pickup of a cake I ordered from 45 surfside bakery. This allowed me to spend more time with my friend who was visiting and I am very appreciative that your team went the extra mile to assist me! We had a lovely stay and I look forward to coming back soon!
Good morning Bettina, I wanted to reach out and personally thank you for our stay this past Friday. Certainly a much better experience than had back In August. The little extras were much appreciated as well! Had a great time with our friends and wish we could have spent the week. Will be sure to post a positive review on trip advisor this time and am certain we will stay with you guys again.
Bettina, Words cannot express how wonderful our weekend at The White Elephant was, and how grateful I am for your incredible hospitality! As a native of Boston, I was embarrassed to admit that I had never been to Nantucket, and brought along my 13-year old daughter so we could discover it together. I was not at all surprised that I immediately fell in love with the island's charm, character, nature and locale!
Our stay at The White Elephant was exceptional, and you should be really proud to lead the team of professionals working alongside you. Everything from our arrival experience, the many amazing (and many) recommendations, the BMW car program (we got lucky!) and your quality F&B really exemplified luxury and teamwork, even despite a global pandemic and the affect it has had on our industry. Of particular note, I would be remiss if I didn't recognize Sheila and her warmth and passion for the Island. I took EVERY recommendation she provided (Something Natural, Ventuno and LoLa 41 were highlights), and each was better than the one before. When I surprisingly learned of the BMW program and the availability of a car, I looked at Sheila and said "ok, we have wheels… what do we do with the limited time we have?" She knew this was a game-changer for us and our ability to see the entire island, and quickly made a list of places we should explore. It was because of this that we got to cover the amount we did in one weekend. Sheila is such a tremendous asset to your team! I truly hope to have the opportunity to reciprocate should your travels bring you to Boston… and I also hope to return to Nantucket and The White Elephant again in the future. Please stay in touch. With heartfelt appreciation.
Dear Khaled, Thank you so much for your kind note left on the bedside table and for notifying the staff at The White Elephant that this was Ali's belated birthday. They left a decadently delicious cake for her with birthday wishes. She was blown away with their thoughtfulness and kind jester! (needless to say that the cake was out of this world!) We had a wonderful time (except for the fire alarm at 3 am! Lol)! All of the staff are exceptional in their "above and beyond" level of service and from the heart kindness. Since we interacted with Desmond more times than any other staff member, we would like to send special thanks to him for his informative driving and warm customer service. Stay well! Hope to see you soon! Thank you again for everything you do for us!
Dear Bettina, Just wanted to send you a note of gratitude for making our short stay in Nantucket a memorable one! The corner room was beautiful, harbor views was so nice and such a nice surprise upgrade! We hope to meet you on our next visit!
To all the White Elephant Staff, Thank you so very much for a memorable stay at your hotel! And thank you for a gorgeous and scrumptious birthday cake for Ali's belated birthday celebration! You are all so kind and gracious!
Dear Bettina, Thank you so much for a beautiful stay. It was the perfect escape during these very surreal times. The residence you upgraded us to was a dream! My little guy thought it was our new home! He didn't want to leave. We had dinner at Brant Point Grill three nights! The food, service and of course the lawn was too inviting to leave so we decided to enjoy three of our four dinners with you (the forth night at Toppers!). Everything was so delicious, and I can't say thank you enough to your team for being so child friendly. Graydon and I were so touched by the many thoughtful children amenities. Wishing you a successful, safe and healthy rest of the season.
In a blink of an eye, I'm back home….I had a wonderful three weeks entertaining family and friends. Our little meet & greet on Friday went well. Thank you for all you do. Your staff is gracious and attentive. I hope to visit again in September…fingers crossed.
Hi Bettina, I wanted to reach out and thank you once again for assisting with a room reservation for me. We returned home last night and we truly had such a great stay! Thank you as well for the room upgrade! How relaxing it was to have morning coffee and an evening glass of wine on the porch overlooking the harbor. Exactly what I needed, so very much appreciated. Every team member we encountered was fantastic and I will be sure to share a review on Trip Advisor. Please let me know if you make your way to Newport soon. We'd love to welcome you!
Dear Bettina, It was also a pleasure to meet you and to have enjoyed 4 nights at the White Elephant. You can be very proud of your entire staff, with particular recognition to Allison and Carolyn.
Good Morning Bettina, My wife and I had an outstanding long weekend at WE. Thank you very much for your hospitality, the suite was very comfortable, we appreciate it.
I am sharing a bit about myself because this has been an extremely tough year for me. Last August I was visiting Nantucket, when I received a call from my daughter at home crying that 'Nana didn't look well'. I flew home, my mom, my best friend in the whole world, my confidant, my everything... had suffered a massive stroke. In the following days we prayed that God would be good and on August 25th my mom passed. It has been a very difficult year with more tragedy to follow.At this time, I'm reflecting on how blessed I am, and how peacefully my mother passed... giving us time to grieve, sing, hold her and love her. This past August 2020, I decided that I would return to Nantucket on my mom's year anniversary. I decided to stay at the White Elephant Residences, and I am so happy that is where I chose to remember my mother's great, kind spirit!!! She was an amazing Mother, an inspiration to us all. The staff at the white Elephant made me feel so happy and welcomed. They reminded me in so many ways of my mother. The attention to detail, the PRIDE, the smiles and kindness....Thank-you!!! Cristian, Mettia, Carolyn, Ameika, Carlton, Coreese and Sashanna....The excellent and kind pool attendants, Pablo the great Bloody Mary creator.... I can't say enough about my stay and how happy I am to have chosen the White Elephant. Thank you ever so much.
Ameika truly made our stay at the White Elephant memorable and very comfortable. She ensured that all our needs were met and was very nice to my three children. The White Elephant is very fortunate to have an employee as professional and competent as Ameika.
We wanted to thank you for all the thoughtful ways you were able to incorporate pieces of the White Elephant into our wedding day. Though we wish we could have been celebrating on the lawn with everyone by the elephant, given the situation it was perfect. We love you all - thank you for everything always.
Pablo at the pool was courteous. Garfield was great with room service, polite, respectful, courteous willing and friendly. Ameika is awesome, helpful and went above and beyond. Everyone was great. Loved it! and John the concierge was very helpful too.
Ameika, Taylor, John, Carolyn and all the staff are amazing!!! We truly enjoyed our stay and can't wait to be back.
Loved John our concierge. He tried very hard for us
The staff here at The White Elephant were fabulous. Everyone here made our stay relaxing and enjoyable. A big thank you to John for all his assistance with dinner reservations, and to Coreese for being the first driver.
I wanted to reach out to you on behalf of myself and my wife Alecia and extend our heartfelt and sincere appreciation for extending to us such an amazing courtesy stay at the White Elephant. To say we had a fabulous time would be a significant understatement. The White Elephant of course is just beautiful and nothing else on the island compares. In addition all of your staff we're just absolutely amazing in every way. Alecia absolutely fell in love with Nantucket and already planning a return trip. We both came down to the lobby the morning of our departure to say hello and thank you in person however, as Murphy's Law would have it, you would literally just left the property two minutes before. So my apologies for not getting to thank you in person. Once again we are so grateful for your generosity and I hope that if the opportunity arises for me to return the favor that you won't hesitate to reach out. I would be thrilled to in some way return your kindness. Good luck with the rest of the busy season and I look forward to seeing you in the future.
My husband Phil and I just checked out after a spectacular stay at your beautiful resort. To be completely honest with you, we were extremely disappointed in the first room that we were put in. When I made my reservation to come here many months ago I was told that the room was" close to the bar and restaurant" but that location would not be a problem due to the fact that the bar was closed and would not be an issue. We were then put into another room on the second floor a little further away from the action and were very unfortunately kept awake until after 2:30 in the morning by some partygoers downstairs in their room. The next day we got a call from Mackenzie who had heard about our unfortunate situation and upgraded us to a spectacular suite. Needless to say, it made our day so much more enjoyable and we look forward to returning! Mackenzie showed incredible personality and initiative and we cannot give her any higher ratings! She also mentioned the fact that you have a resort down in Palm Beach where we go a couple of times during the winter for business and perhaps we will see her there!
My sister and I had a wonderful time at your hotel in July. Each staff member was so kind and solicitous. My sister is disabled, and we appreciated greatly the loan of a wheelchair for the duration of our stay. The staff really went out of its way for us; it meant a lot.I have a question: what is the brand name or manufacturer of the wonderful pillows for the bed. (Not the ones for the chairs) I experienced such a lovely sleep, and hope that you could let me know.
Great Property, but the reason that I am staying here is because of Alicia. She has gone above and beyond to make our stay great!
We loved spending time in your lovely hotel - all the staff were wonderful. I had a back issue and immediately the girl behind the counter gave me complementary alieve to help me out. I believe it was Alison. All members were kind, friendly and most considerate.
We still can't get over how well we were treated at the Grill Saturday night. Our dinner and service were absolutely outstanding. It made for a most memorable 58th anniversary.
We had the pleasure of meeting Ameika. She is kind and welcoming. She has greeted us each day with a warm smile. She helped us out with pool reservations, car service, restaurant suggestions and luggage. Ameika made us feel very special.
The staff has been just fantastic. Friendly, helpful and always available to help! And John has been such a great help all the time!
We had the most wonderful stay thanks to Ameika, John and Taylor, they made us feel welcome and met all our needs, they went above and beyond
Thank you for your nice note, how did you know it was my birthday? I cannot wait to decorate the cookies and eat the cupcakes. Did my parents know that you were doing this? They could of told you when we were going out? Thank you
Dear Bettina, I wanted to thank you so much for everything you did for my family and myself in getting us a spectacular cottage at your hotel. We had a wonderful time on Nantucket and especially at The White Elephant. Our cottage was amazing! Thanks for (digging out) a pillowcase for us! It was so lovely meeting and chatting with us! Thanks again!
Dear Bettina, we had a fantastic time In Nantucket and you , Mackenzie and the staff were all part of the reason why our stay was so pleasurable. Thank you again for your generosity in getting us a beautiful new room - with lots of beer and treats! Also, it's your attention to detail, the care you took in bandaging my forearm and frequently making sure we are happy with our stay. We will be back next summer and looking forward to seeing you again. BTW, when we book our room next summer what is the name of the suite we rented? Would love to rent the same type of room again. Wishing you a great summer.
Tiffany, Shannando, Gigi, Fay, Ken, Ameika, Caroline, Stephanie & Cristian It's so impossible to give a great story about anyone particular person, the truth is the above names, each one is a great story, they all have been just fabulous in everything they did to make our stay very special
