Boston to Cape Cod

On arrival at Boston’s Logan Airport, collect your car and head for the Cape, a drive of about two hours.

Tucked away on the “elbow” of Cape Cod is Chatham, an upscale summer resort boasting a Main Street with plenty of quirky, non-branded shops and restaurants, a stretch of white sand beach, the Chatham Lighthouse and the Chatham Bars Inn, a luxury Cape Cod oceanfront resort. Spend three nights at this idyllic resort, set upon 25 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds alongside sandy beaches.

Your premier room in the Main Inn is elegant and yet cosy with New England inspired decor, fine linens, marble vanities, l’Occitaine bath amenities and a queen sized bed. The sweeping views of Chatham Harbor and the Atlantic Ocean from your deck or balcony are perfect for a morning cup of coffee or a romantic pre-dinner cocktail as you watch the seals frolic and listen to the lull of the waves.

There are four restaurants so there is sure to be one that appeals to you.  The classically elegant Stars restaurant features signature New England cuisine only rivalled by the stunning panoramic ocean views. The Tavern is cosy and comfortable, with a welcoming bar. The Beach House Grill, on the sands of Chatham Bars Inn private beach, has Cape Cod’s best summertime seats for luncheons, clambakes, and beach parties. Finally there is the Veranda for signature cocktails to be enjoyed with yet another fabulous view.

The Spa at Chatham Bars Inn has oversized treatment rooms with private steam showers, a Vichy shower, hydrotherapy bath; couples massage room, landscaped Japanese Zen gardens, outdoor treatment cabanas and a therapeutic outdoor relaxation pool.

Cape Cod to Nantucket

Board the ferry in Hyannis, where you will leave your car as it is really not necessary on Nantucket, for the hour-long trip to this exclusive resort off the coast of Massachusetts and stay at the White Elephant for three nights. Nantucket has been named a National Historic District and has architecturally changed little since the 17th century, as seaside cottages and old-fashioned lamps still line its streets. It is one of the most unique, historic, and visually stunning places in the northeast U.S.

The White Elephant is just across the road from the boat harbour and a very short walk from the many boutiques, galleries and restaurants of Nantucket. The White Elephant has evolved over the years from an eclectic mix of harbour cottages to one of the finest hotels on Nantucket. With its sophisticated guest rooms, suites, garden cottages and magnificent harbour views, you'll find yourself engulfed by a wholly unexpected blend of island charm and sophisticated comfort. Each of the 66 bedrooms is slightly different depending on where it is in the hotel, but they are all lovely! Service throughout the hotel is impeccable, efficient without being obsequious.

You will spend your days exploring this tiny island hideaway or if it is too much effort to leave the hotel, the long chairs are set out on the lawn – perfect for sipping a glass of champagne. If you need to get away from the sun, the huge chairs in the library offer a comfortable alternative or book into the spa for a memorable couples massage.
