Top Gay Head Lighthouse Hotel Reviews

Falmouth Tides

10/10 Excellent

"Unfortunately the weather was really bad when I stayed there with my family. The location and the setting of the hotel made me want to definitely come back next summer. Strongly recommend it. BTW, I didn’t mind it much, but the sound from upstairs people is pretty loud."

Vineyard Harbor Motel - Private Beach

8/10 Good

"We spent one night at this motel. So, we didn’t get to enjoy all of the amenities. It was clean and comfortable. There was a market and restaurant directly across the street. The location was great. The staff was very courteous and helpful."

Inn on the Square

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. The parking was easy and the staff was friendly."

Mansion House Inn And Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The Mansion House Inn exceeded our expectations. The staff was very helpful, friendly and professional. I’d highly recommend this venue to anyone who is planning a trip to Martha’s Vineyard."

MV Surfside Hotel

8/10 Good

"Super convenient location, updates rooms, very clean. WiFi security may be lacking."

ShoreWay Acres Inn & Cape Cod Lodging

8/10 Good

"Location was great - short walk to Main Street Falmouth to shops & restaurants. Plenty of parking. Everything was fine for our stay. Rooms were clean and plenty of space."

Faraway Martha's Vineyard

8/10 Good

"A few smaller items that made the stay slightly questionable, no elevator bags had to be carried. Not much to do about that in an historical building, but it's a note for guests. I would expect a notch better, especially when coming to bedding. The bed was comfortable, but I would expect down pillows and blanket at this price point. The record player was a lovely touch. Parking was challenging, but again, historical town we must make compromises. Wonderful shower towels, GREAT pool and hot tub area. The location of the hotel is / was supreme. Only coffee offered in the lobby, no inroom machine, and no option of a latte, or capp in the hotel or lobby, only in adjacent restaurant. (Loud bathroom fan, bug in room, a little mildew build up on the shower grout, definite degradation happening on plumbing fixtures. At this price point, should be better)"

Harbor View Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We always enjoy our stays at the Harbor View. The rooms are terrific and beautifully appointed, and the staff is consistently helpful and friendly. The front veranda, with its sweeping views of Edgartown Lighthouse, the Atlantic Ocean, and Chappaquiddick, is truly delightful. The on-site Bettini Restaurant is another fabulous amenity—convenient, inviting, and absolutely delicious. You simply can’t go wrong booking a stay at the Harbor View!"

The Harborside Inn
