THE WAUWINET With just 32 rooms and four cot- tages, and a location next to the Coskata-Coatue Wildlife Refuge on Nantucket Island, the Wauwinet offers the ultimate in intimate, exclusive stays. Open from May through October, this luxury prop - erty boasts private beaches on the Atlantic Ocean and Nantucket Bay, perfect for sunset strolls along the shore. Plus, an array of amenities, activities, services, and packages designed specifically for adults are sure to make a stay at the Wauwi - net romantic and relaxing. It's a place that encourages its guests to unwind and unplug. "It's kind of a safe haven from cell phones, iPads, computers, technology. People can reconnect with themselves and each other," says general manager Eric Landt. This kind of intimacy and personal connection is so entrenched at the Wauwinet that it's available even before your stay begins, thanks to the complimentary pre-arrival concierge who can arrange things like transportation, spa services, and dining before guests arrive. Small touches, like the port and cheese that's offered to guests each afternoon and the complimentary DVDs and popcorn, add to that welcoming spirit. Although there are plenty of activities to keep guests occupied, like kayaking, biking, fishing, cook - ing classes, and even a day out on a lobster boat, guests will find that there are more relaxing things to indulge in, too. Couples can have a cozy champagne picnic packed by the hotel; enjoy a romantic meal at the Wauwinet's renowned res - taurant, Topper's; relish a private breakfast for two; or indulge in a couple's massage at the on-site spa.
