The Brant Hotel opens on Nantucket from the team behind Salt Hotels, reviving the Brant Point Inn.
team, who currently operate boutique properties in Provincetown, Mass., and Miami, have taken over the Brant Point Inn on the island and have opened The Brant, just in time for the summer 2024 season. that features three of the original historical buildings, all renovated, along with a fourth new building, called the barn, which features a lobby and bar.
The Brant Point Inn was opened in the ’80s by the Kaizer family, who ran it until deciding to sell in 2021 to a Boston-based real estate investment firm. The new team approached David Bowd, who has made a name for Salt Hotels as a design-forward, service-oriented boutique hotel brand. Bowd soon took a ferry ride from Hyannis across to Nantucket to check out the place.
“When we started out 10 years ago, I felt at that time that a lot of the more boutique hotels had really focused on design, but didn’t focus on service as much. And so that’s what we wanted to provide, was a really high level of service. The guests that come to Salt really are people looking for that,” Bowd says. “They’re looking for something that is truly personal. We Google everybody. We know who everybody is.
That area is the newly built barn, which serves as the bar and the lobby area, with the pool right by. The three existing buildings, plus the new barn, create a protected enclave of land that “you don’t normally get when you stay in a more historic building,” Bowd says. It allows guests to be out and about in the business of Nantucket one moment and then retreat to lounge by the pool in private the next.
“And the people,” he adds. “We’ve met so many people who are so excited that we’re coming to the island. Every year something new and interesting is opening up — there’s a new wine bar that opened just down the road from us. There’s constant change. So whilst we’re new and coming in this year, I think there’s a few other people as well trying new and different things, and so we’re all sort of in this together.”Zendaya and Tyla Win While Lauren Sanchez Falls Flat: The Best and….
