Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location is just perfect, overlooking the harbor and lighthouse, and it's only a pleasant 10-15 minute stroll into the main town. The rooms were spacious, modern, and well-equipped. The service, from reception to tours/ticket assistance, was attentive and professional. However, the dining prices were a bit high, starting at $24.00 before tip and taxes.
Staying at this hotel was a true delight. The rooms were lovely, and we enjoyed the complimentary Illy coffee each morning in the lobby. The location was perfect for exploring Edgartown, with stunning views from the rocking chair front porch. Dining was a highlight, with delicious homemade cakes to savor. The facilities were top-notch, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
The hotel had its ups and downs; The location was superb, offering everything needed for a Martha's Vineyard stay, although the dining experience was not up to par with limited options. The service was attentive and helpful overall.
The hotel is tucked away at the end of the bar area with an outlook over the bay. The rooms are small but very nice, and there's an option available at the back of the hotel by the pool for the same cost and standard as our current room. The service is lovely and very attentive, with staff being friendly and responsive. The location is perfect for what we wanted, walking distance to all that Edgartown has to offer in terms of restaurants, cafes, and shopping. However, it's advisable to check whether there's a wedding booked during your stay. The dining experience offers classic dishes but might have some delays in serving. Facilities include dry cleaning, housekeeping, a welcome drink, and tours/ticket assistance.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, while beautiful and spotless, could use some updating. The service was friendly but seemed to prioritize certain guests over others. The location was excellent for exploring Edgartown, despite some inconvenience due to a private event. The dining options were a bit pricey, but the view and ambiance made up for it.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of great experiences and a few disappointments. The location was fantastic, close to various attractions and restaurants. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, although some maintenance issues were noticeable. The service was friendly and attentive, but there were some inconsistencies. Dining was limited but enjoyable with a beautiful view. Overall, a reasonable value for the money with some room for improvement.
