About this property

LUXURY OCEANFRONT ESTATE! Private beach & heated pool & hot tub. Sleeps 10!

We specialize in family vacation rentals and residential stays of 7 nights or more. We have many wonderful families who have come to Whales Watch for 1 to 4 weeks for decades for their annual Nantucket family vacation. We hope you choose to become part of the Whales Watch Family!

Many consider Whales Watch to have the best ocean views on Nantucket.

Since June 2022, we do not allow weddings or events. Whales Watch resides in a quiet residential neighborhood (please see below for details).*

Please message for pictures of new large heated swimming pool (20 feet by 40 feet) and three hot tubs! There are four fire pits & four outdoor showers as well. Brand new teak pool furniture with navy cushions on the pool deck.

This listing is for Whales Watch III:
Whales Watch I -- 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms; sleeps 20
Whales Watch II -- 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms; sleeps 12
Whales Watch III -- 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms; sleeps 10
All 3 houses are available to rent separately or together!

VIP RETURN GUESTS -- receive preferred rates and off-season VIP specials. Whales Watch is beautiful year round!

I am the owner of all three houses. They were built in the 1980s and I purchased them in 2016. I've since done some serious renovations and upgrades to all of them that I'm sure you will enjoy. New floors, bedding, linens, furniture, state-of-the-art appliances, etc. I can send updated photos and videos upon request.

I will be your direct contact for booking -- then once booked, I will connect you with my Caretaker, who can arrange groceries, bicycle rentals, reservations etc.! We will ensure you have a fantastic experience!

*Unfortunately, due to some wedding and event planners holding excessively loud unauthorized events at Whales Watch -- in June 2022, I agreed to a zoning change (deed restriction) for Whales Watch. Weddings and events are now 100% prohibited. We focus solely on residential family vacations. I want to make sure Whales Watch is preserved as a quiet relaxing oasis for my family and your family to vacation for many decades to come!

About the host

Hosted by Michael Reed

Host profile image
I'm a Charleston SC-based real estate professional who has been going to Nantucket for over 30 years. I spend many months a year at Whales Watch -- so I'm truly sharing my home with you. It's a special place. I searched for decades to find a special Nantucket property of my own, and I purchased Whales Watch in 2016.

Why they chose this property

Very special direct oceanfront property. Best views on Nantucket. This house in particular has private balcony off master bedroom/bathroom and porch off kitchen, both with views of the ocean and Tom Nevers pond.

Most mornings you can see seals along the coast or up on the beach, and on rare occasion you can see whales out in the ocean (hence the name). The land is also teeming with wildlife - especially bunnies and deer - as Tom Nevers is tucked away from the busier areas of the island.

The best part of Whales Watch in my opinion is that half of the acreage is a private beach, which is yours to come and go as you please. Wake up, make coffee, and step down to the sand in your robe to say hello to the seals. Really special place!

What makes this property unique

Direct access to owner whose family has been connected to Nantucket over 100 years. The street name was recently changed to "Reeds Way" to honor the Reed family's charitable work on Nantucket. Michael Reed will assist with any special requests during your stay!
