The staff was helpful and engaging, the manager seeming to be everywhere at once. 😊. The property was immaculate with so many thoughtful touches. Very convenient location and parking. The private beach was perfect — clean, quiet, chairs/umbrellas/towels available— and allowed great boat watching. Our room was simple but very comfortable and had everything we needed, including a small fridge with freezer and a microwave. No room cleaning/refresh services were offered and we did not ask about them — there were extra towels in the room and we were fine on our own, but just be aware. Wonderful — we would absolutely stay again!! 😊

We had a wonderful stay! The room was clean, comfortable, and the location was perfect. It was close to Oak Bluffs, making it easy to walk to the shops, restaurants, the harbor, and many of the island’s attractions. The front desk clerk was absolutely amazing friendly, welcoming, and full of great recommendations that helped us make the most of our time on Martha’s Vineyard. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would definitely stay here again!

The location of this property is amazing central to all Vineyard Haven has to offer and situated on a clean harbor beach adjacent to a small marina. Chairs and loungers were plentiful and offered some nice relaxing atmosphere watching boats cruise in and out.

The staff was helpful and nice.

Thats the truly good news about this resort type hotel however it seems the owner does not value aesthetics appearance and cleanliness. The owners have let this place become rundown and dank.
I suggested upon leaving that they throw away the area rug in the room as it was extremely filthy and stained. I rolled it up and stuck it under the bed for our stay. Other wise it was just a dumpy little room. With an itty bitty kitchen .
They should fix this place up. Probs wont go back there.

This is a basic motel in a good location in vineyard haven. The private beach and free kcup coffee are nice touches, and the staff is very helpful and friendly. The room was dated and somewhat dark being on the first floor but it’s a clean and affordable option. We’ve stayed here twice and will return when we’re in the area.

I was a little concerned when we first got there, but our stay was better than expected. It’s an old motel, but our room was clean and had new appliances. The bed was comfortable and had clean, crisp sheets which is the first thing I look for when I stay somewhere. The room was ample size, very small bathroom. Staff was very friendly. Free parking. Convenient location. Price was right for Martha’s Vineyard.

The room was clean, the bed and pillows were comfortable. But the refrigerator froze our food, there was no coffee maker in room, the table and dressers were vintage, and the bathtub needed replacing or resurfacing. The common areas were very nice and well maintained. Each unit has a different owner, so I would try another unit next time.

I booked this motel through Expedia and paid more than 4 months in advance, expecting a quality room that matched the listing. Instead, I was extremely disappointed. The room was with a small window, about 75% of the view was completely blocked by a rusted metal building located only about 4 inches from the window, while the remaining 25% offered almost no view at all. The room felt dark, enclosed, and more like a box than a motel room. It was nothing like what anyone would reasonably expect.
The photos must show every room type and clearly identify rooms with severely obstructed views. I booked based on the listing, but the room I received was completely different.

I had a really disappointing experience staying here. The building is very old, but that wasn’t even my main concern. What really bothered me was the lack of basic safety and professionalism.

Around 4:00 p.m. on the day we checked in, my husband and I were relaxing in our room when a staff member suddenly opened our door without knocking or announcing himself. It was the same employee who had checked us in and given us our room key, so he knew the room was occupied. After seeing us, he simply said, “Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were here.” That made no sense and left us feeling very uncomfortable and unsafe for the rest of our stay.

On top of that, there was no working Wi-Fi because we were given the wrong password, and there was no one at the front desk to help us or answer any questions.

Thankfully, we were only staying one night. Overall, it was a very poor experience, and I did not feel safe staying here. I would not recommend this place.

In my opinion, and based on my travels, I think the rooms could use a little updating. That said, the décor may be part of the hotel's intended theme and overall character. The private beach is a nice feature, and there are plenty of great restaurants within walking distance of the hotel. Overall, it wasn't a bad stay.

This was my second stay! I love the great location, private beach and friendly hotel staff! There are excellent restaurants and FREE public transportation STEPS away.
A cruise ships was docked a few feet away from their beach. While lying on their private beach, I discovered a Horseshoe crab in the sand, which I've never seen before.
I did have an issue with the AC in my unit this trip. We didnt have it on automatic, nor a timer. However, it kept shutting off itself, and the room had gotten hot quickly before it came back on. Since we were out all day into evenings, and staff leaves at night, we didnt inform them. Overall, I definitely will stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at the Vineyard Harbor hotel! It's a great location and the staff was friendly and helpful. Spencer even helped us carry our bags up the stairs! The rooms are cozy and clean, but with some wear and tear. Sitting by the beach (night and day) the proximity to town and transport during the day more than make up for some of the \"rough spaces\" and the friendly staff was wonderful. Highly recommend unless you are looking for more luxury and something brand new.

This place was way overpriced. The room did have a bed and the smallest shower I have ever seen. I think they’re trying but clearly not hard enough.

Great location - in walking distance to ferry. Nice, small private beach. Very small, minimalist rooms that are good for a short stay on the island. Updated furnishings but still an older motel - rooms have a smell; step back from the shower water when someone flushes the toilet or you get scolding hot water, etc.

Great location for my purposes, hospital visit, the room was “clean” but not perfectly clean- the towel rack in the bathroom fell right off the drywall, not installed properly. The bathroom floor could use a real scrubbing, it felt dirty.

We made a very last minute reservation when our ferry was canceled due to weather. The person at the desk moved us to the first floor because we had a stroller and got us a pack and play and was just super helpful during a very stressful time. Our room had a full kitchen with full sized fridge, oven, microwave, and was overall clean and exactly what we needed when traveling with a baby. We didn’t get to enjoy the beach because of the weather but it’s super close to the ferry - you can actually see the boat - and to some nice restaurants and cafes. Exceeded expectations!

My brother and I came down to explore Martha's Vineyard for a couple of days, and what a great choice we made with this motel! Right off the bat, Briana was very friendly and helpful during check-in. The room was clean, attractive, and had everything we needed. I must say, the beds were incredibly comfortable, something we both independently commented on. With a full day ahead of us after checking out, Spencer very kindly let us leave our bags, watched over them during the day, and entertained us with stories when we returned for them. I can't say enough good things about the staff! The one regret: we should have stayed another couple of days. A great experience, and hope to revisit soon!

We enjoyed a lovely weekend at the Vineyard Harbor Motel! Excellent location, easily walkable from the ferry, small supermarket, shops, and restaurants close by. Local bus is very convenient for exploring the island, and free.
The motel is clean, has a great little beach, super friendly and helpful staff, we will definitely be return visitors! We stayed in one of the apartments and having a little kitchen area was great. It felt like we were staying with friends, but with total privacy. Can't wait to go back!

Our room was huge and had a comforatble bed. It looked recently renovated and was clean. The bed was comfortable. It was a rainy cold day so I asked for an extra blanket. I was given the blanket and offered a space heater which was perfect. Walking distance to restaurants, pizza and sub shops, and the supermarket and ferry.

Nice updated rooms but a bit noisy, you hear everything in the adjacent rooms.
Also near the ferry with a 6 am wake-up call from the ferry horn every morning !
Also parking is very limited on the property but additional parking is available down the street, a short walk !

The place was great, it was an experience that we had, that the owners of the Motel didn't really address approperately.

Parking was a little tough, but they had another parking area that no one really used.

The room was tastefully furnished and clean. The hotel balcony overlooked the harbor and got morning sun: I had my morning coffee there. Staff respected my wish to not be disturbed during my 4-day stay but were present when I needed them. Water was hot and abundant. Hotel wifi was glitch-less and fast enough for my needs. Ferries to the mainland were within easy walking distance from the hotel, even with luggage (and taxis are readily available if you prefer to ride). Also within walking distance is a supermarket, an art theatre and plenty of restaurants (but no bars because Tisbury is a dry town). Local transit buses pass in front of the hotel and connect to all Island points (including to bars in nearby Oak Bluffs).

The hotel is comfortable, convenient and low cost (for the Island): what more do you need?

Great location and super friendly staff

Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. Room was clean, and the ferry is just a short walk. My only critique is that the bathroom window has no shade or frosted glass, so people walking down the sidewalk or driving by can see right in.

I did not choose a room with “ocean(harbor) view” so that’s on me! However4 doors down we could get a great view of VH Harbor, tall ships, etc. Staff was pleasant and helpful.
The property is an older property so it shows some wear & tear. However, bathroom facility was cleN, hot water was all you could ask for, beds were very comfortable, and each bed had a variety of pillows to satisfy your preferences.
Access to the harbor beach is perfect where there is (surprise!!!) a brick BBQ near/on the beach.
I would stay there again without any doubt.

Always welcomed us back every day. Room was cleaned everyday. Property is a bit dated but the excellent staff made up for it.

The location and view from the room were perfect. I enjoyed the Keurig choices for coffee in the morning as this is stronger and better than your normal in room choices.

They gave us an umbrella to use during our stay which was super thoughtful.

And it was an easy walk to town and convenient to drive anywhere.

A reasonable choice

The room was reasonable size, but the bathroom was quite tiny. The door didn’t open all the way due to hitting the toilet. We managed though. It was what we expected, the price and location were great for our stay on Martha’s Vineyard. It was convenient to the ferry port and there are good restaurants nearby.
