• To celebrate the landmark hotel’s 100th anniversary, White Elephant Nantucket engaged Elkus Manfredi Architects to design a top-to-bottom transformation and renovation of the 54-room hotel and its 11 cottages. • The design draws inspiration from Nantucket — its history, the quality of its natural light, its landscape — to breathe new life into the historic buildings and immerse guests in an authentic Nantucket vacation experience. • A redesigned lobby sets the tone for relaxed elegance, and the entire hotel is filled with details that honor the colors, textures, and artistic legacy of the island.
