Lighthouse Beach Tours

TLDR we left a day early because it was not what we were hoping for. Although I know you get what you pay for, this one was sadly pretty disappointing. We paid around $280 for a studio room for three nights. This might be around the cheapest you can find in Martha’s Vineyard in the middle of the summer, but reviews and pictures made it seem pretty legit. We got there around 1pm on the ferry and walked to the motel. It’s pretty conveniently located and right on the water which is great. We asked if we could do an early check in and they were still cleaning the rooms, so they said they’d call us when it was ready. At around 2:30pm we came back and decided to hang out at the private beach. This was probably the best part of our stay! At 3pm (check in time) they still hadn’t let us know if the room was ready. I went to the front desk to ask if it was and they sent someone to go look and came back 5-10 minutes past 3 to say it was ready. The room was spacious but the bathroom was not. The issue was that we were on the second floor (the top I had presumed), but we were one of two rooms that had another room above it. Unfortunately this room had a large family in it and because it was a rainy day, a lot of people were in their rooms. The family above us had their kids running and jumping around for literally 5+ hours. After 3 phone calls to the front and the manager talking to them, it only worsened and they couldn’t move us. We left the next morning for a more romantic stay

We truly enjoyed our stay at The Franklin. The location was great, the spaces were clean and well maintained, the staff was helpful and courteous, and the room was pleasant and comfortable. The common kitchen space was convenient and a great feature. A few small nit picky things: The bathroom door in our room was not aligned properly so it was difficult to close and made quite a bit of noise, which was disturbing to a partner sleeping. Likewise, the french door leading to the rear patio on the 1st floor was extremely difficult to close, especially with items in one's hand. As I said, these were minor irritations which would not preclude me from returning, nor should it deter anyone from staying here,

Great location. Clean, well maintained property. Nice staff. Our Queen bed room was comfortable but def cozy. We had a great stay.
