We had a wonderful stay at Vineyard Harbor motel. The accommodations were clean, well stocked, and very exceeded our expectations. The Motel is conveniently located right in the center of town, and the VTA bus has a stop right out in front! Overall, we highly recommend!
I thought my room was super sweet! Loved the view and i felt secluded up on 2nd floor far corner! Loved the private beach! Only improvement is maybe property is a bit old? But loved meaning i think room needed a paint job and some updates? But loved every minute! Staff very friendly! Loved location!

This is a basic motel in a good location in vineyard haven. The private beach and free kcup coffee are nice touches, and the staff is very helpful and friendly. The room was dated and somewhat dark being on the first floor but it’s a clean and affordable option. We’ve stayed here twice and will return when we’re in the area.
If your expectations are not that high and you just need a place to sleep it will work. The room we were in was very outdated , duct tape around the ac to seal around it, towel holder on wall about to fall off and felt like you were staying in your grandma’s spare bedroom that hasn’t changed over the years. The manager was nice , and location decent if your looking to be in that area.

Great location - in walking distance to ferry. Nice, small private beach. Very small, minimalist rooms that are good for a short stay on the island. Updated furnishings but still an older motel - rooms have a smell; step back from the shower water when someone flushes the toilet or you get scolding hot water, etc.
Good location in Vineyard harbor from the ferry. Very walkable. Staff friendly and knowledgeable. Rooms are not fancy but work. Nice beachfront area looking out at the harbor.
We made a very last minute reservation when our ferry was canceled due to weather. The person at the desk moved us to the first floor because we had a stroller and got us a pack and play and was just super helpful during a very stressful time. Our room had a full kitchen with full sized fridge, oven, microwave, and was overall clean and exactly what we needed when traveling with a baby. We didn’t get to enjoy the beach because of the weather but it’s super close to the ferry - you can actually see the boat - and to some nice restaurants and cafes. Exceeded expectations!
This was my second stay! I love the great location, private beach and friendly hotel staff! There are excellent restaurants and FREE public transportation STEPS away.
A cruise ships was docked a few feet away from their beach. While lying on their private beach, I discovered a Horseshoe crab in the sand, which I've never seen before.
I did have an issue with the AC in my unit this trip. We didnt have it on automatic, nor a timer. However, it kept shutting off itself, and the room had gotten hot quickly before it came back on. Since we were out all day into evenings, and staff leaves at night, we didnt inform them. Overall, I definitely will stay here again!
The staff were lovely and very helpful, parking easy and the room was clean. The private beach was lovely and the location of the motel is convenient for the town and good touring the island.
