Stop at the grocery store when you arrive, load up, and park your car in our driveway. Chances are you won't need to get in it until you leave!

This is our third time in this home. The location is everything. Very close to the beach and beautiful views of the bay. And the owner, Frank, was very responsive and helpful with anything we needed. He went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. We will absolutely be staying here again.
Begining of the season. Small issues - promptly resolved Great time for all adults and teen.
What a beautiful, comfortable, relaxing home and a perfect spot. We spent a week, each day exploring parts of the island by kayak, bicycle, car, or walking to and on Madaket beach just a few minutes away, then relaxing at home in the evenings. 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!
This is a wonderful home, close to the beach and harbor and iconic Millie's! Sunrise and sunset lovers delight, can't wait to go back ☀️?
Wonderful place to stay. Excellent location very near the beach. This was our second time staying at this house and will not be our last. Can’t wait to go again next year.
Had a fantastic week here in this adorable home. The location cannot be beat- a short walk to Millie’s and Madaket beach (easy even for toddlers). We enjoyed the beautiful sunsets off the back porch and the peacefulness of the quiet neighborhood. We would love to stay here again in the future- our whole family absolutely fell in love with Madaket!
Great neighborhood! Couldn't access Madaket beach due to erosion but found another close by. Had a few obstacles as first guests of the season but all was resolved given good communication with Frankie Starlight! You will enjoy it?
First I want to thank Francis for being so helping and inviting the whole week we were staying at his home. 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.
Had a wonderful stay @ Frankie's Starlight this month! My first time staying in Madaket in 50 years of travel to the island. The Starlight is incredibly comfortable with both heat and AC. We loved how the two bedrooms were on opposite ends of the house separated by the great room and kitchen. Fully stocked with everything from linens and bedding to cookware and beach chairs/towels - you don't need to bring anything from home and can pack light! Excellent communication with a very welcoming owner! Don't miss renting here - it's serene and quiet with beautiful sunsets and breathtaking starry nights! We had a blast Frankie *including Peanut and appreciate your hospitality!
