Admiralty Inn & Suites - a Red Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms are nice and clean. Very convenient area good parking and next to the ferry going to Martha’s Vineyard."

Whaler Inn and Suites

8/10 Good

"The staff were all super friendly. The room was nice and clean, updated recently. The bathroom and shower were fantastic, the view on the oceanside was lovely. The beds were HARD as a rock, not comfortable at all. Breakfast was so so, typical cereal, yogurt, waffles. The breakfast needs set up better, they had sausage on a different counter from all the other food, I don't think anyone noticed it."

The East Island Reserve Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room and stay was amazing, super cozy with easy parking and plenty of space. My only issue was that there was a lot of sound coming from the room above (not their fault, it was just annoying) so maybe don't stay in the lodge if you think that would be annoying."

Seaport Resort & Marina

8/10 Good

"The seaport resort and marina was very nice. We did receive a room that was not cleaned but received a new room very quickly by the front desk. The layout I would say is a little quirky, no elevators and the building looks 2 stories high but we're in the 400 section. The room we stayed in was very nice and the kids loved the stay. The outdoor venue with food truck, lounge and bar area with live music overlooking the marina was beautiful. Kids had a blast dancing way past their bedtime. We would stay there again. Thank you!"

AutoCamp Cape Cod

"Great property in a lovely location. Some maintained could be improved. We has a dripping shower and two broken glasses but no one fixed it during our two day stay."
