    Wedding Hotel Block

    Everyone is so great at this hotel! I have had to email the sales team multiple times when planning and blocking rooms and they are so accommodating! Highly recommend this beautiful hotel. The area is also so lively!

    Corkery Barrows Wedding 10/6

    Of course we would want this venue being beach and boat folks (not to mention staying here many many times). What we did not realize is just how amazing our wedding would be!

    Working with Chelsey and Madeline, well they made our wedding absolutely perfect! It was my first time getting married, and I had tons of questions and concerns, Chelsey eased every worry !
    The food was excellent! The carving station and martini mashed potato bar being huge hits too!
    I would highly recommend this venue! Our family and friends could not say enough good things about it too, which made us extra happy !

    Nantasket Beach Resort's reply:

    Hands down the best wedding weekend! Mary, the social events manager, was absolutely great to work with during the planning process. She was quick to respond via email or phone and helped wth suggestions when we were unsure of certain things. Lorraine, the day of coordinator, was literally my brain for the day...which was exactly what I needed! She decorated our ceremony and reception rooms better than I had envisioned it with all the items we dropped off. The hospitality from all the staff that worked there was top notch! Thank you for a perfect wedding weekend!

    What can I say other than I was extremely impressed but the staff at the Nantasket beach resort!! I worked with Mary with all the planning she was great!! I couldn't have been happier. Our guests enjoyed the food, champagne toast and cake. Great package. The ceremony was located down stairs and the reception was located upstairs that was amazing!! The set up of both were just beautiful. They were completely flexible with anything we needed. Last minute I had a family member who needed a certain food menu item. They just took care of it. No questioned asked!! It was great I love to do it all again. Jk but could recommend the hotel for anyone. Plus a lot of family and friends stayed price was right.

    Loved the venue! Very helpful everytime I had to call or get assistance with room bookings. Also I made all of the decor and they were very thorough getting everything just as I envisioned in the room! Bar downstairs was great too! Mary and Mai were fantastic!!

    Having our wedding at the Nantasket Beach Resort was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. They were such a pleasure to work with - from the beautiful location to how easy it was to coordinate with Mary - even the reception accessories drop-off made us feel stress-free that we were in good hands. They were also completely amazing day-of, always making sure the evening went seamless: and little things like bringing me some champagne during a photo break, or picking out / making sure my mother had something to eat during the cocktail hour really made a huge difference to us. Our guests have also raved on how great the food was - the fish and the steak were both delicious!! I can't thank them enough on everything they did to make our day special. They have my highest recommendation, thanks again to the staff!!

    The venue was absolutely beautiful and we were thrilled by the service. Specifically, we thought Daniel, the wedding coordinator, did an outstanding job of organizing the day and making sure everything went smoothly. He is a true professional who is committed to offering exceptional service. We also loved Cathy behind the front desk as she goes above and beyond to take care of the resort guests. People like this are what made the Nantasket Beach Resort the perfect place for our special day!

    From the moment my now wife walked in the door she was hooked. She loved it so much we forewent the church ceremony and got married onsite as well! It was a beautiful wedding and the view from upstairs overlooking the beach was amazing. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly to help our special day go off without a hitch. Mary is a true professional and asset to this aspect of the resort. She answered all of our questions and was with us to right up to the very day. I would recommend anyone contemplating to hurry up and lay down a deposit before someone else steps in to grab it!

    I can't say enough about how amazing it was to have my wedding at the Nantasket Beach Resort. The wedding coordinator, Mary, was the reason I booked Nantasket when I went for a meeting to check it out. She was very professional, nice and helpful every step of the way and I knew I'd be in good hands because she was incredibly organized. During the event weekend, every staff member of the hotel was AMAZING and really made us feel attended to and comfortable. The whole day went by without a hitch, and we had the rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, ceremony, cocktail hour and reception there.

    The ballrooms were recently remodeled and I know pricing is going up from when I had my wedding, and it's probably worth it. The remodeling was gorgeous and the views of the beach were incredible -- all of our guests were in awe. Can't say enough about how much of a great decision it was to have my wedding with Mary at Nantasket.

    The Nantasket Beach Resort truly provided the wedding of my dreams. From the beginning, wedding coordinator Mary S. was informative, organized, helpful, and kind. Being from the South Shore it was a blessing to be able to get married at the beach I grew up going to. The natural beauty of Nantasket Beach provides a superb backdrop. The venue itself is breathtaking, especially after recent renovations to the Surf Ballroom. We had our ceremony on the first floor in the Nantasket Room, and our reception on the 2nd floor in the Surf Ballroom. The views from each room are phenomenal, and that's particularly true in the Surf Ballroom. The food was so good (guests still talk about how good the filet was in particular) and included in our package was a beautiful cake from Konditor Meister. On the day of the wedding we were assigned a coordinator (Daniel) who was amazing. He kept everything running smoothly and I didn't have to worry about a thing. The entire staff was friendly and professional. Guests loved everything being in one place; the ceremony, reception, and hotel rooms all right there. I would recommend the NBR to any bride, especially if you're from the area. Although it is listed here as being in the $$$ price range, I found it to be quite reasonable as you are charged only a very small room fee and then the main cost is based on guest count / meals ordered.

    We got married at the Nantasket Beach Resort in October 2014, it was perfect! Mary and Mai were so pleasant to work with and we really feel like we got the nautical/beach wedding at an affordable price.

    We had our wedding here in May and I cannot say enough about Mary!! She was at my every call, request, need for EVERYTHING! Planning a wedding from long distance was hard, but she made it so much less stressful! I cannot say enough about the big day, it was perfect!! We had 120 guests, plated dinner, and a live band in the surf ballroom. We offered Land/Sea plate or chicken, both were very good. The service was great, our wedding party was catered to all evening, and we offered an open bar all night and I never had to ask for a drink, the bartenders kept up with my husbands and my drink all night. Highly recommend, just a beautiful place, nice people, and your guests can enjoy a nice breakfast on the ocean the next morning!

    We had our ceremony and reception on the dance floor of the Surf Ballroom- the second floor ballroom, with a gorgeous view of the beach from almost all sides! Everyone involved with helping us was wonderful- they listened to how we wanted the ceremony to be (on the dance floor and very brief) and did their best to meet our budget, including helping us figure out how to have our wedding rehearsal at the Paragon Grill, the restaurant in the hotel. Minor hiccups included our Day-of Captain seeming to get a little frazzled when we wanted to sneak away for a few more sunset shots by the beach, and that they continuously spelled our last name wrong. I suppose if my husband and I were a different personality type, we would've been upset to see our last name spelled wrong repeatedly, but we thought it was funny- it was spelled wrong on one of our order forms, we corrected it with them, they spelled it wrong again on the hotel's room block website, we asked them to correct it, and then they spelled it wrong on the welcome sign the day of the wedding... but we thought it was funny and took home the sign to put it in the scrap book! I'm also sure if we had addressed it with them the day-of, it would've been corrected because they were ALWAYS so quick to respond to our requests and needs, we just didn't bother addressing it. They were so helpful and accommodating, like adding more rooms to the block, helping us figure out how to put in an ice cream sundae bar, and we had quite a few friends/family with specific dietary needs that they were very thorough in making sure they had the correct info for each person. I would absolutely recommend this venue as a wonderful place to get married!

    Nantasket Beach Resort was a diamond in the rough! We almost didn't visit because of the limited pictures on their website but once we visited we fell in love. They hosted out reception and ceremony. We worked with Mary who was excellent. She is very responsive to emails and organized. She followed up with me and all of my vendors appropriately and was patient with my many questions. The resort was very flexible with all of my requests from welcome bags, to signature drinks, to decor requests. At the rehearsal we had a less than spectacular "banquet captain" that made us feel rushed and un-rehearsed. As soon as we addressed this with Mary she took off, stayed for the ceremony to make sure everything went smoothly, gave us a new "banquet captain" and had the general manager stay for our event. I was blown away by their response and dedication to making sure we were happy on our big day. In addition, the food was excellent (filet and statler chicken) and the servers were friendly and accommodating.

    I had my wedding at the NBR back in August of 2012. I know they have done a lot more renovations now but it was still beautiful then! We had our reception in the Surf Ballroom and it was just beautiful. Mary S is amazing, she is so detailed and organized she won't miss a thing! The food was amazing everybody talks about how much there was to eat and that everything was delicious! We have amazing photos on the beach that are just breath taking! The one and only negative thing I could say on the night of my reception they were having some issues with the A/C which was a little disappointing being August but really that is a fluke thing!!!

    We had our wedding at the Nantasket Beach Raffael's. They were fabulous! They worked with us to create the menu we wanted (the food was exceptional!) the look and feel we were going for and the staff was incredible. We chose this place because it had a hotel connected to it which is a separate business. The hotel was a nightmare just because of bookings and telling people the wrong thing but the reception hall and food were amazing!

    My wedding at the Clarion was absolutely fantastic! My wife and I were extremely happy with the services that both wedding planners provided for us. Our wedding was moved upstairs without additional cost which was a pleasant surprise. The tasting event that we attended last February featured great food, flowers, and cake vendors. That being said, the food was delicious and exactly as we expected it to be on our day. The complimentary room was 5 stars as well- HUGE and a big plus since my wife and I needed to get our 2 boys ready as well as ourselves for our beach ceremony. The location obviously was just gorgeous. Our guests all loved the venue and commented how nice their accomodations were. Our only small "too bad" was that we didnt make it to the roof before dark for photos because no one was available to take us up there.

    Beautiful backdrop and venue

    Nantasket Beach Resort and I got off to a rough start in planning our wedding day. With a new wedding coordinator on board, Chelsey who was more than quick to respond and address all of our needs, wants, and issues it ended up smooth sailing. The day went off without a hitch with everything organized from start to finish in the most efficient manner thanks to Chelsey. Madeline was the day of captain and made sure everything went exactly how we wanted it even down to making sure we ate our meals and cake! All of our guests had nothing but great things to say about the wedding venue. The food was great from the cocktail hour hor d'oeuvres, dinner, after party snacks, to the morning after brunch. Even to the hotel accommodations were wonderful, most of our guests were given an early check in even though it is not guaranteed. The staff all around was pleasant and respectful. I would recommend Nantasket Beach Resort to anyone looking for an affordable, elegant, well managed and beautiful setting with amazing staff and food as a venue for their wedding day!!

    Nantasket Beach Resort's reply:

    Kristen and Mike,
    Congratulations again on your wedding day and thank you for your kind words! We were honored to be a part of your wedding weekend and we wish you nothing but the best in the years ahead.

    Sincerely,
    All of us at Nantasket Beach Resort

    We had an AMAZING wedding at the Nantasket Beach Resort. Mary, the wedding coordinator was very sweet and most importantly was very responsive with any emails/phone calls. Mary did marvelous reaching out and meeting a few specific requests we had concerning the reception too!
    The executive suite that we were provided for the couple nights was really amazing, it was huge! We had 20/25 people in the main area of the suite (in the living room/kitchen area). The only thing it was missing was a balcony ( it did have a sliding door but no where to step out onto). Plenty of windows with views of the water. We also had the ladies in our wedding get their hair and makeup done right in the suite and it was plenty large enough to do that while hosting other people as well during so.
    We had the rehearsal dinner on site in a separate area next to the bar and it was great, the food from the restaurant was very good! The server, Anna, we had taking care of us during the rehearsal dinner was very sweet and quick as well, provided great service.
    We had the ceremony in the smaller side room, the Minot Room, which was the perfect size for 80 guests. It was nice but it was very hot in the front of the room of the ceremony, that was the only bummer thing. Although we obviously didn't pause the ceremony to complain about it therefore it was what it was.
    The reception was amazing, the Nantasket Ballroom (first floor) was great, stunning view of the beach/ocean, a fenced in patio, and perfect for a smaller wedding. The food was fantastic, especially the filet, salad, and Mediterranean Station we had chosen. The bartender was super fast I was told and the Banquet Captain, Madeline, was amazing. She was present the entire time, set the room perfectly, ran a tight ship, and packed up all our stuff after for us to bring up! Overall, i highly recommend this resort for a wedding, especially for the location if you love the ocean like we do! :)

    This is a beautiful place to have a wedding. Mary is the sweetest, and most helpful event planner. She is extremely helpful and there for anything you need. The food is amazing!!! i had my ceremony here as well, and I think if I could go back and do it again I would have chose a different ceremony spot with more time after the ceremony to greet quests. I wish I had a longer walk down the aisle and did it outside. The only complaint I have is the banquet captain for the day. She was extremely rude and rushing. She was rude to some guests, my mother and my aunt which is unacceptable. I did make mention of this after the fact, however I wasn't going to let it ruin my day. She rushed us through everything, very demanding, and just very intrusive. If she wasn't there, everything would have been perfect. I do recommend having a wedding here, I would just talk to Mary first about the banquet captain.

    I would of gave them a five star because of Steve Campbel he was wonderful and efficient and had great idea's but I almost did not have my daughters wedding at the Nantasket Beach Resort because a person name Mary S. she was rude and unpleasant. I am confused why she is still working there I am not the only one who has the same opinion about her.
    I was also disappointed with the caption we had tis night. I realize people do not care as much as the person who is paying for the event. I gave her a book with picture and written information on how I wanted things, something's not done and she went to a friend of mine and talked with her about stuff and not me my friend had not a clue about anything, she was helping me the day of the wedding that is all. I gave the caption a basket for my daughter and husband to have when they arrived at there room was not there we had to track it down. I was very upset about that. I also told her that if the card box and sign in book was one side and the table setting card were on the other side the guest will get the tale cards but may not notice or look for the card box or sign in in book. She assured me it should be no problem she will make sure they do both. But only a few signed in and a lot of guest did not even noticed the card box witch was a large one with ringtones initial letters on it. I told her people called me after the wedding and told me they did not see it and so they forgot to give them and ending up mailing the cards to me. The food was amazing and so much my guest did not go home hungry and the venue was pretty. I was happy we had it there over looking the water it was beautiful. I booked both ball rooms one for the reception and the other for the ceremony. Thank you Steven Campbell.

    Happy Ending Wedding 9/08/2019

    There were a few communication issues when Newport Hotel Group took over ownership. I was so happy when they finally hired a new Catering Sales Manager. Chelsey is very friendly and helpful. My food menu was a little different from what we discussed but I didn’t let it ruin my night. The banquet captain was amazing and she was very friendly. I went through hell in the beginning but my wedding turned out to be amazing.
