About this business

Any account of the Harbor View's history must begin with Edgartown, its legendary birthplace. Settled in 1671, this early colony steadily came to be known as a prime port for whaling. And as that enterprise grew, so too did Edgartown, in both prominence and influence. In fact, by mid-1800, this bustling municipality had become the Vineyard's wealthiest. But as the whaling industry began to ebb, Edgartown officials turned their attention to a new source of prosperity: tourism. With ambitions of building the finest resort o... read more

Pros: The staff was friendly and offered tips for tours and attractions. The cottage was cozy and private. Cons: The carpet in the room had many stains, and had a musty smell. Location: Location was excellent, in walking distance to shopping, restaurants, and the lighthouse! Had a wonderful trip, looking forward to returning soon!

nice location Pros: the front porch, the free morning coffee and tea, the front desk area, the view on the porch, the staff, the location to the main street Cons: update the rooms, decrease the price Location: a very relaxing, quaint town Extremely overpriced. Great staff. Beautiful front desk area. Nice location. Relaxing. Short walk to main street. We stayed in the hotel area behind the main house. It was spacious, but very old. Not sure if it was dirty or just grungy. I was disappointed based on the photos that were shown... read more

Harbor View Hotel -gem of the island Pros: Friendly helpful staff is the first thing one notices about Harbor View. Cons: Lighting; can be dark moving around the grounds at night. Location: Martha's Vineyard is a prime vacation destination with an assortment of beach and ocean based activities. HVH is a wonderful vacation hotel with a great view, and a friendly atmosphere. Casual and laid back, this is a terrific place to spend vacation days on Martha's Vineyard.

This hotel needs TLC and new management! The Harborview is a grand hotel that needs some attention. We have stayed here in the past and have truly enjoyed it. Having read recent reviews we were hesitant to stay there again but decided to go because there was a deal on the room. Well, we found the reviews accurate regarding the staff and the condition of the facility. While it is understandable that older buildings are difficult and expensive to maintain, some paint and carpet would go a long way to make guests spending $300+... read more

Great home base on Martha's Vineyard Lovely hotel. Great location. Nothing fancy- understated elegance. Staff was helpful. Lacking the presence of a mature host/manager.

Excellent location Pros: The location. Location: Within easy walking distance of the town. A lot of lovely shops (but very pricey) and a great place to walk around and view the lovely homes. We stayed here for two nights at the end of June. It was a perfect time to be there because we missed the July 4 and later crowds. The hotel faces the water and Chappaquiddick Perfect view of the lighthouse and within easy walking distance into the charming town of Edgartown. The concierge gave us great recommendations for dining and als... read more
