"This is such a cute Cape Cod hotel. Nick at the front desk was very informative on the ferry to Martha's Vineyard and places to eat in the area. The room was clean and comfortable."

10/10 Excellent
"We always enjoy our stays at the Harbor View. The rooms are terrific and beautifully appointed, and the staff is consistently helpful and friendly. The front veranda, with its sweeping views of Edgartown Lighthouse, the Atlantic Ocean, and Chappaquiddick, is truly delightful. The on-site Bettini Restaurant is another fabulous amenity—convenient, inviting, and absolutely delicious. You simply can’t go wrong booking a stay at the Harbor View!"
