Overview
Blue Iris by Life House Welcome to your vacation estate, where nods to Nantucket's creative history and island beauty fill each guest room with collected artwork, Portuguese pattern-play, and coastal color palettes. Inspired by an art collector, each room is adorned with layered and patterned textiles, rustic Mediterranean elements, and antique wood details influenced by Portuguese design. Our cozy guest rooms boast all the right ornate details with colorful Portuguese pattern-play and nods to the estate’s Greek Revival design. As always, every room includes luxury linens and terry from Revival New York and Le Labo bath products that smell so good it may even be easy to rise from your plush bed. Blue Iris is located 0.8 miles from the Brant Point Lighthouse, 1.1 miles from Jetties Beach, and 3.0 miles from the Nantucket Memorial Airport.

“The ideal place to stay on Nantucket in the heart of the magical, historic district.”
The breakfast was delicious but very limited. There was a choice of either overnight oats or yogurt parfait. I am a fan of both but it is definitely not for everyone. The addition of fresh baked muffins and perhaps fruit would round it out nicely.

“Treat yourself to the confidence and love of Blue Iris!”
This year we decided to stay in the historic district. We selected Blue Iris based on its location - in the historic district but not in the center of all of the hustle and bustle. We made an excellent choice! The staff is absolutely amazing which made our stay most enjoyable and stress-free. Tess, Sarah, Ali and Christian provided impeccable service, were super friendly, warm, and tended to our needs. We felt like part of a cozy family during our week long stay. Online photos of the property were accurate, bed comfy, and the toiletries aromatic. Morning coffee, croissant and parfait, and evening happy hour glass of bubbles or wine, were served on the fabulous outdoor patio or the small parlor/reception area. Beach towels and bikes afforded the opportunity to ride to Jetties and Steps Beaches. Short walk to The Wave made it easy to explore the island and its amenities. Perfect place to stay for couples and singles!

“A conveniently-located, trendy stay in Downtown Nantucket with warm hospitality. If I could get a King room on an upper”
They kindly gave me an upgrade to a King room which was spacious, tastefully furnished, and well appointed. Just a short walk from the ferry!
