The pet fee is $50 per day, and a signed Pet Waiver is required upon check-in.
“What stands out here is the blend of historic charm and modern comforts, just a short walk from the Martha's Vineyard ferry. I particularly appreciate the heated outdoor pool set among the landscaped gardens, offering a peaceful retreat. The option of rooms with private balconies overlooking the harbor adds a significant appeal.”
