The Kelley House
.The Kelley House
The most iconic & historic hotel on Martha’s Vineyard
At the height of the whaling era, Edgartown was home to more than 100 sea captains who built grand homes with fortunes earned at sea. After 275 years, these six houses, a famed American tavern, bucolic amenities, and seaside views endow this alluring retreat with the same restful ease and leisurely magnetism that have made it famous across New England.
A new chapter begins for one of America's most storied hotels
The Kelley House opened its doors 300 years ago and predates the Boston Tea Party, when Martha's Vineyard was a colonial settlement for whalers and America had yet come into being. The original hotel was established in 1742 as The Tavern, a point of respite and refreshment for sailors, but has remained a lodging destination ever since. As the thriving days of whaling glory progressed, so did the property's expanse, ultimately encompassing six homes. With an eye towards embracing a bit of 21st century convenience, but a penchant for honoring the centuries of history that make this property a treasure, Blue Flag is committed to assuring that The Kelley House will remain a cultural anchor in Edgertown for years to come.
Ushering in transformative, tech-friendly travel on Martha's Vineyard
Given the property's history as a home for global seafaring navigators, Blue Flag's partnership with Life House Hotels represents a marriage of 21st century operational acumen and thoughtfully rooted design. From exquisite beaches, sought-after dining, and an unparalleled sense of character to the property's private pool, beckoning guest room views, and award-winning dining, The Kelley House is an unmatched center point. The hotel's next era will convey a sense of continuity by way of convenience, so that it remains a living landmark for all that makes Martha's Vineyard so special.

Cannonbury Lane
Cannonbury Lane
The Garden By The Sea
Nearly indistinguishable from an expansive protected preserve and Low Beach’s exotic austerity, Cannonbury Lane is a slice of Sconset like no other. This is where Mother Nature goes to get away; why not follow her lead.
Indulge in the enviable luxury of a truly simpler summer
Before it became a bustling seasonal hub, Nantucket was a refuge; where a breezy ferry ride could turn the clock back and instantly take the edge off. Diving back into simple living; quiet coffees before kids are up, surfcasting in the fog, or shell collecting before dinner is how time away for the summer was meant to be spent. Recapturing it on island, is just a short drive away.
The pure joy of being remote, the life on the beach we all want
Facing out to the Atlantic, and found on the most remote side of the island, Nantucket's Siasconset village is an heirloom to a different era. Four hundred acres of expansive conservation acreage surrounds a quiet street near the end of Low Beach Road. There one finds a rare opportunity on Cannonbury Lane: nature ensconced home sites promising coveted summer simplicity by way of a remote location, deeded beach access, and ready-to-build lots.
Recapture the past by disappearing into the island's enviable natural wonders
Walking distance to miles of spacious coastal views, and just steps away from afternoon dog walks with the kids, Cannonbury Lane's site design and amenities marry the best of the island's natural wonders in one location. Meet the beach at the end of your driveway by way of community-wide dunescaping and boardwalks that guide wheelbarrows to waves. Follow gentle undulations of sand and sea oats to the backside of the enclave for sunset yoga at the Field House. Deeded beach access, gorgeous community cutting gardens, and private entry to acres of lush flora ensure that season on Sconset actually feels like summer.
Rochambeau
Rochambeau
A Hip Neo-Bistro Hits The Back Bay
French belle meets Parisian street artist for this grand bistro and cocktail bar concept in the heart of Boston's Back Bay. Named for the famed general who led the Continental Army to victory, this is where gallant Parisian revelry is the preferred vibe. Where midweek lunches often begin with a bit of bubbly, brunches turn into leisurely afternoons, and where rock, paper, scissors decides who picks up the tab.
Fall In Love With Dining In Downtown Boston, All Over Again
We traveled near and far in search of the perfect moules-frites and baguette. We studied the classics in pursuit of that magical bistro experience. We assembled the best talent in the world to create the ultimate Franco-American collaboration. And in the end, we created a place we'd love to go at the heart of the city we adore.
Where daring flavors and enviable ambiance meet for lunch
Located in a two-floor, 12,000 square foot space adjacent to the Boston's Prudential Center and Copley Plaza, the spirit of a buzzing Parisian eatery emanates from the street up to the property's sweeping second-floor views. We've given the city's premier urban retail enclave an iconic bistro delivering a hint of urban grit paired with recognizably French sophistication.
Harnessing the creativity of an unrivaled team of tastemakers
In partnership with one of Boston's premier restaurant groups, Blue Flag collaborated with the award-winning Home Studio's design team and Revolver New York's powerhouse branding studio to create an experience that will anchor the Back Bay dining scene. The glow of Rochambeau's iconic neon cafe sign signals good times ahead, with our charming French awnings and Parisian ambiance waving bienvenue to big brunches and power lunches.
Union Lights
Union Lights
Heeding the call to town
Quietly tucked away on a north shore historic street, this quartet of fully-furnished homes pair seaside living with the island's charming business district. An idyllic Nantucket retreat? A convenient downtown address? We'll let you decide.
Harnessing the island's next renaissance
The vision for this foursome was simple: restore 42 Union Street as a fabled corner property at the heart of Town harbor. A century ago, the island's merchants and tradesmen valued function over form, and in doing so, birthed an iconic form of architecture. A stone's throw from Francis Beach and a turn around the corner from enviable shopping and dining, this is where bustle meets a back-to-basics way of life.
Connect with community and cherished rituals
In a place this rich in history and architectural influence, inspiration is found beneath every cobblestone. With window sills perfect for Daffodil Festival, ideal digs for Figawi, and entertainment spaces fit for post Christmas Stroll and Boston Pops get togethers, those who come to the island for community as much as coastal relaxation will find their calendar full.
Step back in time and into Town for lunch
While sun and surf beckon so many to this elbow of sand, Nantucket is awash in equally magnetic history. Dive deep on the island's industrial roots at the Whaling Museum and Nantucket Lightship Basket, both a short walk from the Union and Fayette Streets. Jethro Coffin House, the Museum of African American History, as well as a constellation of galleries are all flanked by cozy coffee klatches and lunch spots like The Bean and Provisions, offering history buffs and foodies a perfect pairing of delicious eats and enlightening conversation.
Home for traditions and trends
Reds from Murray's Toggary, J. McLaughlin's gingham, and ring belts from the Nobby Shop have secured the island's sartorial reputation for decades. Yet newcomers like The Vault, Nantucket Looms, and Salty Soul represent fresh voices in fashion and home goods that residents at Union and Fayette streets will love stumbling upon just a few minutes from home.
Preserving austerity and authenticity
Each of Union Lights’ four properties were inspired by the island’s seaside beauty and maritime ideals of balance and dignity. The homes’ exteriors reflect Nantucket’s classic Quaker and Victorian architecture, but beyond each doorstep, one finds back-to-basics design matched with luxurious modern touches.

A fabled aesthetic fit for the modern era.
Union Lights is both a property and a collection. While our family of craftsmen stretches across the globe, regional vendors and local artisans helped make these fully furnished, completely turnkey homes quintessentially Nantucket.
