Loved that the room had a private bathroom and that the breakfast area was on the same floor. Lots of good options to eat, also. The decor was adorable while keeping with a "Nantucket" feel.

The Periwinkle Inn is close to EVERYTHING in town, and the innkeeper and staff were incredibly nice and considerate. The only room available for my family of three when I booked was a room with a shared bathroom. Do not be deterred by this! The toilet and shower are in separate rooms, and we never crossed paths with the other room's occupants, with whom we were to share, and the place was booked solid! It was evident the shared bathrooms and common areas were cleaned frequently. We would certainly stay here again! Thank you, Periwinkle Inn!

Tiny Room was a win!
