The Harborside Inn

Room is good. Beds and pillows very comfortable. Pleasant, hard-working staff. Great to have some activities during the week. Loved the trivia night. The landscaping at the inn is always so pretty. Also love the nightly cookies and milk and s'mores. It is my happy place!

We have been staying at The Harborside Inn since 1980 and the historic nature of the buildings and accommodations are unique. It’s also one of the only hotels in Edgartown with a swimming pool with a view of the harbor. There are also slips for boats up to 25 feet that can be rented. Walking along S. Water St. at night really makes you feel that you’re back in the whaling era. The staff is also very attentive in the offstreet parking for your car is also a big plus. Wonderful place for a weekend or a week or two.

The staff at The Harborside Inn, Edgartown, Massachusetts, is exceptional. Everyone is so friendly and accommodating! Service with a smile is rare these days, and they are genuinely caring and kind people.||It is one of the loveliest places I’ve ever been. The rooms are impeccable, beds comfortable, and amenities abound. ||Beautiful deck overlooking the harbor makes your morning coffee memorable!

We have been going to the Harborside Inn for 37 years and have always enjoyed our stay. It's a beautiful spot with plenty to do. Great restaurants and shopping and activities for younger kids. Rooms are tastefully decorated and well cared for. Karen and Charmaine keep them impeccable. I look forward to this vacation all year.

The rooms are gorgeous! The people who work here are the friendliest! This inn is in the most beautiful town in the island! There are so many good shops and restaurants within walking distance. There are view if the harbor is beautiful and there are fire pits and grills to cook on.

I thought we had booked at the Harborview so my mistake. This is a very old property. 1800,s. If you like old, it’s great. The rooms were very small but nicely appointed comfortable bedding etc Pool was small. Staff was friendly. But there isn’t anywhere even to get a small bite on property . This property is very overpriced. Excessively so and I would not go back .

The property and the staff are always very lovely at Harborside Inn. The “owners” who visit during this time are always so friendly and inclusive. It’s probably one of the better weeks to visit.||||The mattress on the bed might need to be changed or at least turned periodically. It was sunken in the middle and made both my and my husband’s back hurt.

Wonderful amenities, attentive staff, and beautifully kept grounds. They have added nice extras such as a live jazz band some nights, trivia competition, toasting s'mores, and nighttime chocolate chip cookies.|Always a pleasure to spend this relaxing time on the island.

Great location, comfortable room and beautiful views. The negative is the noisy sounds from street and other rooms and I also found one of the front desk staff rude. Edgartown is so quant and fun. This is right on Main Street and near all the shops and restaurants. It also has such a beautiful view of the boats and water. The room was clean and beds comfortable: The walls are thin and I could hear running and walking above my head. We also had a room on the Main Street and there is a loud bar outside our window that closed at 2:00 am. On Saturday night you can hear the people in line and music. Sunday morning they have early morning garbage trucks. I would stay here again due to location and views but perhaps stay on other side of hotel.

Check in parking they tell you 3 blocks down the road. Try 6 blocks Milton house first floor rooms are tiny right on the road Nothing offered but 24 hrs coffee Help very cordial, mints on pillows and slippers Very clean close to downtown edgartown where shops restaurants ice cream shops are close Check in park your car in loading zone good luck parking here always full have to drive around one way streets just to find room for your car to check in ....

After removing the jacuzzi and sauna, and raising the fees to higher than normal for a timeshare resort, it's clear that all this new money and profits have been wasted. No improvements to the shared kitchen area. And of course, waiting for your room to be ready is made up of guesses and 'I believe...'. We don't know when your room will be ready. It's 1 in the afternoon and we're still just waiting. This place has been more profitable now than in the past decade. Bring back the sauna and jacuzzi.

I rented a room for a week, and was terrorized by a group of condo owners, who don't welcome( as well as management), people renting vs people who own for the week. The room was small and very loud

What a fabulous stay we had! The staff( Sean, James, and Celine!) were beyond helpful and informative with recommendations on things to do and see while here. The Inn itself was spotless! The location couldn't have been any more conveniently located just steps away from the restaurants and shops and has spectacular harbor views. We would have our morning coffee and afternoon wine out on the deck. We can't wait to come back for another visit!

Let's start with the good stuff. The views from the room we had were spectacular. The Edgartown Harbor is on full display and it is a beautiful sight. The room was good sized with a shaded outdoor deck. The bathroom was a bit small. The facility is very conveniently located to all that Edgartown has to offer. The bad, you ask? The property is "shared" with a time share -- Marriott I believe -- and the "owners" are a boisterous bunch. They all seemed to know each other which lent Itself to a heighten noise level. Perhaps we just picked a bad week. Perhaps it's like this all summer long. But, at $430 a night I expected much more for my money. Proceed at your own risk.

My best friend had a coworker that couldn't use their timeshare so we ponied up the maintenance fee to stay. I could only stay one night so I didn't utilize many of the Inn's amenities. We stayed in a room with two double beds. They offer a roll away cot for $25 (complimentary if you're during your timeshare slot). Nice room with a fridge and a decent size closet. Bathroom is on the small side, but the stand up shower was nice. Pool outside and a lovely view of the harbor. They have a community kitchen from what I saw with plenty of seating. Plenty of restaurants and shops really close. Parking is a good ways away from the hotel itself, but unless you have mobility issues it isn't bad. My interactions with the front desk was pleasant. They scheduled my cab for me and were incredibly pleasant in general. I'm not sure how much this place is normally. Comparable to places in Nantucket during the height of tourist season I'm sure. A really nice place though.

What a delight! From the exceptional location and considerate staff to the amenities and special treats, I can see why people come back year after year - as will I!

The Harborside Inn is located in the heart of Edgartown and it is one of the most beautiful things about Edgartown. I have been lucky enough to come here in late June for the last 20 years. The operators of this facility have always put money back into the grounds and the buildings to keep them looking beautiful. From the manicured gardens to the well tended rooms, the Harborside is a wonderful place. There are a variety of available rooms offering a view of the street to views of Edgartown harbor. So whether you are watching your budget or fee like splurging, you have choices. The staff is courteous and attentive and the proximity to shops and restaurants is fantastic. You really don't need a car because walking to town is second Las away and the bus stop is only 10 minutes of a walk. I highly recommend the Harborside inn if you want a wonderful Martha's Vineyard experience in the heart of the most beautiful town on the island (my opinion of course).

What a great hotel. Right near the shops on Main St with a beautiful view of the water and Chappaquiddick. Would definitely come back!

The room is very small and very expensive. The bathroom door opens a short way and blocks the sink and makes it very uncomfortable to get in and out of the bathroom. The covid has given them the ability to provide poor service, no washcloths, no bed linens changed and no fresh towels. The location is fantastic, but the negatives outweigh the view. You can do better.

I love it! We bought one week, upgraded to a second week. Harbor view on the Vineyard? You can't beat it. Some timeshare-experienced people may not like having to leave your room for kitchen facilities, but it makes for a nice community experience. We don't generally vacation with plans to do a lot of cooking. It works for us! I just love the Vineyard and the view. The rest for me is secondary. We look forward to it every year!

Great location and friendly staff, but if you're looking for a good night's sleep after a day at the beach, you may be disappointed. The buildings on the Main St. side are close to the nightlife which lasts until about 2 am, then be prepared for very early morning trash pickups and then refrigerated delivery trucks. All this occurs just outside of your window. Parking is offsite and nearly 1/2 mile away. The good news is that they do offer free parking.

What a great experience all around! It begins with the wonderful people working at the front desk... Every single person is kind, warm and beyond helpful! I have to specifically THANK Celine and James for taking such good care of us and helping in so many ways over the weekend! The location is ideal, the rooms are clean, the staff is overly friendly and accommodating and the view is stunning! A perfect place to stay while visiting MV! I've traveled the world and have stayed in many hotels and I highly recommend the Harborside Inn!Thanks for a wonderful stay!

The Harborside Inn is located in the heart of Edgartown and it is the only hotel with Waterfront access. My family and I have been going there for the last 20 years. The staff is incredibly friendly and the property and rooms are clean and neat. Step off the property and you are downtown close to restaurants, shops and beautiful scenery. I recommend the Harborside Inn very highly when you go to visit Martha's Vineyard.

I just wanted to stop & thank this hotel for canceling my grandma's reservation. Her & I were supposed to take a girl's trip next week but unfortunately my grandma had to have emergency surgery & is unable to travel now. I appreciate the hotel working with us & understanding that things happen. I really hope sometime in the near future my grandma & I can make this trip!

We stayed two nights at the Harborside Inn this past week. We had a wonderful time! Our room was on the third floor... no elevator, but it kinda added to the charm of it. The view from the balcony was absolutely breathtaking. It was our first visit to Martha's Vineyard and this hotel is very centrally located in Edgartown. Pros- Great location, friendly staff, Beautiful view and clean. Cons- Rooms are kinda dated, small bathroom with no counterspace, no elevator and they do not have an onsite restaurant. I would stay here again :)

I booked a marina view room with king size bed for a few days in July which was my first visit to the Harborside Inn. The Haborside Inn should not be confused with the Harbor View Hotel in Edgartown which is a more upscale hotel. The Harborside rooms are neat and clean but small and the bathroom was so tight I personally had little room to rest on the water closet. The room had a small flat screen TV which was fine and the good AC unit, ceiling fan, small table and chairs. The Harborside is more like a large motel than a Inn and for the pricey 400+ a night room I've had much better on the island but it is a good place to stay if you have a few children and want to be in downtown Edgartown. My only real complaint was the bathroom size and the thickness of the walls and ceiling because you can hear your neighbors walking around. At 400+ a night I probably will find another place to stay not because the Harborside is a bad place but because in my view its not a good value of my money compared to other places in Edgartown. I rated the Harborside with two stars.

After renting houses in Edgartown for over 25 years, we decided to make life easier and stay at the Harborside Inn in Edgartown. We couldn't have made a better decision. After a great vacation there last year, we came back this July for a week and loved every minute there. We loved our room overlooking the marina, swimming pool and beautifully manicured gardens and lawns. Our balcony was large and shaded and we enjoyed reading and relaxing there. The hotel's location is perfect, right downtown and close to everything. The very friendly management and staff went out of their way to make us comfortable. We highly recommend the Harborside and will be staying there next year for sure.

ASK FOR JIMBO!!! He rocks best bell hop on the market. He physically ran my bags up to my room and gave my dog CPR.

Nice place to chill This is a beautiful and updated combo timeshare/hotel in the very heart of Edgartown right on the water. Its ultra charming and old from the 1800's and you cant beat the location. I was lucky enough to get an exchange here for a nice week. Rooms have been updated this year and there is nice bedding a mini fridge and small 19" flat screens. Nicely updated bathrooms on the small side but fine. My room did not have a view but was by one of the front doors and the noise from that was loud, people coming and going tend to slam that door hard and the walls are thin. Also my room was on the front street however the windows are soundproof and I was not bothered by street noise, just the doors. If your an RCI member or owner here you can use the community kitchen and washer/dryers. There are shared fridges and stoves and plenty of everything to cook with. Theres also a semi-heated pool. Daily maid service is nice too. The resort closes 6 months a year in the winter. I would stay here again its a good choice but try to get a room overlooking the harbor with the balcony for the most bang for your bucks. Room Tip: Try to get a room with the balcony views away from the street

My 9 year old asked me to post that the pool is not kid friendly because she is not allowed to jump or play "Marco Polo." The walk-in closet made her say ok give 2 . If I were to review the hotel it would get more stars for other features‍

Room extremely small but great location. Friendly guests and staff.

This is a great deal for Martha's Vineyard, especially right in downtown edgartown. I only knew this because a friend told me, but if you call and ask about their smallest rooms (couldn't find it online), you can get an amazing deal! You're in a great location and the amenities are very adequate, why do you need a big room anyway?! Any they are right on the harbor and have a pool. Will definitely be coming back here.

Modest room, looks like it was done over (same with bathrooms). Stayed on 4th floor (be aware, no elevators here!) but boy, what a beautiful view of the harbor. just gorgeous!! Nice pool, lovely grounds. Perfect location. Staff was very welcoming and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Stayed two nights here last week. Great location and walking distance to everything in Edgartown. You can bike 20 minutes to South Beach and a few others but we took a cab and the bus back. Simple. Rooms were nice and clean. Great service and the staff was very friendly. They have a pool in the courtyard as well. The views of the harbor are amazing. I'm going back for sure!

I had visited MV a couple of years back and we bumped into the Harborside because of the amazing view and POOL. We stayed for 3 nights this past weekend and could not have hoped or asked for a better place to stay. I had done some research thru TripAdvisor before booking, reviews are not great. However everything everyone else complained about we did not encounter. Yes there are owners there and yes they have access to kitchens and BBQ's. But hey we were on vacation and I'm pretty sure the last thing any of us (6) wanted was too cook our own meal. Our room faced the street which others had complained about but it never bothered us. By the way I like silence when I sleep and the street noise never bothered me. Beautiful views and relaxation areas...couldn't ask for a better location.

DISCOUNT RENTAL AVAILABLE.....I've been coming to the Harborside Inn years before it became a Timeshare with rental units.It's absolutely a "10', view from the 3rd floor balcony ans swimming pool overlooking the harbor and the boats coming in and out. A community kitchen with outdoor barbeque grills, fully supplied, available for some casual meals. The grounds which come close to being a botanical garden make it all heavenly. My unit is a 1 br, king sized bed, balcony overlooking the harbor, July 13th tp July 20th for $2000.. My mail is cc1695@aol.com.First come get the vacation of a life time at a huge discount.

We visit Martha's Vineyard three to four times a year and from our experience, this is the worst place that we have stayed. We have stayed here on two separate occasions, and both times we had bad experiences. This past trip, we booked two rooms for two nights and paid the entire amount several months in advance, as required. We were told that one of the parties (in one room) would have to change rooms during the stay. This meant checking out at 11 AM and checking in again in a different room that same afternoon at 4 PM. We were also told that the staff would move our belongings to the new room. Luckily, we chose to take most of the belongings to the other room we booked but we did leave a few items in the room to be moved. None of the items made it to the new room and the staff said they had no recollection of anything being in the room. Good thing we didn't leave all of our items. We checked out the next day and someone in our party forgot their swimming trunks. I called thinking maybe they would have found them -- long shot that didn't pay off. The staff were very rude and not at all helpful or accommodating. It is noisy, and the rooms smell moldy. The location is nice, but there are other choices. We won't be back.
