a nantucket summer
the luxury is in its simplicity
A Nantucket Summer. It’s not just a time of year spent in a place, it’s a feeling—rather, a lifestyle. Early mornings spent sipping coffee lazily while breathing in that fresh, salty air. Dressing in wrinkled linens and wandering into town, half window-shopping, half people-watching. Vintage cars, hydrangeas and climbing roses greeting you on every sidewalk as you return home. Afternoons spent at the beach with a half-eaten sandwich, just in time for a midday nap as the sound of waves crashing at your feet lulls you to sleep. Waking up feeling all the more tired—in a half daze as you pack your things to leave, skin glowing from the warmth of the sun. The most beautiful sunsets you could ever imagine that only the eye can fully appreciate no matter how hard you try to capture it with your phone or camera.
Grey days are spent in Sconset because it’s the only time you wouldn’t be at the beach. Walks down sleepy streets, admiring the talent of each home’s gardener—again, trying to capture the beauty but never quite able to match reality. Rainy days are spent in town, hopping from one store to the next, looking for the best Nantucket keepsake before grabbing a steaming bowl of clam chowder at the restaurant closest to you.
“Dressing up” at night in more unpressed linens and strolling into town, no reservations and no availability anywhere except Afterhouse—or whatever place you always end up at no matter how hard you try to branch out and try somewhere new. This is a Nantucket summer. The luxury is in its simplicity.
