The fully equipped kitchen made cooking at home a breeze but it was also just a 15 minute ride into town to reach all the great restaurants. The owner provided great recommendations on what to see/ do/ where to shop and eat. Can’t wait to return some day. LOVE this home! ##### John B.

My family and I just spent 9 days at Frankie's Starlight and it was \*wonderful\*-- the rental is very spacious (2 large bedrooms, each with their own full bath in the main house, as well as another large bedroom with bath in the separate private in-law apartment). There's also a very nicely equipped (and stocked!) kitchen and a large, comfortable living room where everyone can hang out. \*Everything\* you need is there-- washer, dryer, iron, beach chairs, coolers, beach towels, you-name-it! We also LOVED both of the decks, especially the large one at the back of the house (with a big picnic table, benches, chairs, and a great grill) that has a beautiful view of Hither Creek. The location is GREAT-- you're a stone's throw from Millie's and biking trails and only blocks from the beach (which has both a very calm, kid-friendly bay side as well as an ocean side for adult swimming and surfing). Bottom line-- it's a WONDERFUL house that you and your family (or you and a fair number of your friends!) will greatly enjoy. The other factor that made this such an amazing visit for us was the owner Frank. You will NOT find a more responsive, knowledgeable, kind and generous host-- we were visiting during hurricane Dorian and Frank made sure we were comfortable (very) and safe (absolutely). When we didn't have our bikes from home, Frank very generously let us use his family's bikes. We simply can't say enough wonderful things about our experience with Frankie's Starlight-- if you book this rental a fantastic visit awaits you!! ##### Sophie S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joanne S.

I had trouble working the door at first but Francis immediately helped us out. He also gave us many places to visit and check out while on the island. He made an amazing week even better. The home is situated on a very quiet end of the island. The beach was calm and allowed us to enjoy the beautiful weather with almost no one around. The drive from the airport and the main city is super easy so we would go to dinner downtown every day with exception of two days where we grilled out. The main home has a main common area and two bedrooms and bathrooms at either end, perfect for a family. The back deck overlooks the bay and is perfect for morning coffee or an evening drink. We will definitely come back and will certainly hope this home is available when we do. We highly recommend this to anyone traveling to the perfect island of Nantucket. ##### M. Sean H.

The only reason I am giving it 4 stars was because the water heater broke while we were there and sprayed all over the room making bedding and clothing wet, requiring quite a bit of clean up. However, Francis was immediately available by phone and it was fixed the very next day. The house was in great condition. Very clean and steps to the beach. I will definitely be staying there again.

Madaket location perfection. Highly recommend. ##### Alison S. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura B. Jun 26, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect for a family We took my almost three year old and it was so kid friendly. We could have even left the pack n play at home. Frank was great and very communicative and helpful. We are definitely rebooking for next year. It is also a five minute walk to a fantastic beach. Great place! ##### Laura B. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Claire H. May 24, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy home, wonderful location - will return! We had a fantastic stay at Frankie Starlight! The host was warm, welcoming and responsive. A short walk from Madaket Beach and Millie's, the location is a 10/10 and proved the perfect spot for our family, including a toddler who enjoyed riding to and from the beach in the beach buggy. The home and amenities are basic, typical of a beach cottage, but very comfortable. We particularly enjoyed time on the outdoor deck with a water view of Hither Creek. We will definitely be back, and we can't recommend Frankie Starlight enough, particularly for families! ##### Claire H. Stayed 7 nights in May 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Pete W. Nov 1, 2020 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Grimy: Give it a good powerwash inside and out and some paint! Maybe it comes from a rental cottage in October, but geez, if you're the owner, you don't have to splurge on capital expenditures, just powerwash inside and out and put some paint on. Between the general grime, lightbulbs out in kitchen and inside fridge, the smoke detector battery going in the middle of the night (of course), and the general level of dirt and overuse-- wow what a disappointment that the owner thinks its okay to treat renters like that! After we checked in we went right to Stop & Shop and bought cleaning fluids and paper towels and went through the place. We're not talking COVID clean, we are just talking everyday clean. And brutal wear and tear on EVERYTHING. Literally every surface needs paint. ##### Pete W.
