Our group of 8 rented this house for a week and it was just what we needed to relax and unplug. There is plenty of room for both privacy and group gatherings, stunning ocean and sunset views from multiple decks, and a great location in Aquinnah. Our host Elise made the stay easy and comfortable and had great advice for walks, beaches, and wildlife. We hope to return!

Favorite Martha's Vineyard Vacation Rental
The Duck Inn in Aquinnah on Martha's Vineyard is such a sublime vacation rental that I'm a bit apprehensive to share my secret!
Alas, it's too much of a treat to be missed.
Having traveled extensively on the spectrum of budgets, this property is definitely as good as it gets. I've been blessed to have rented the old sea captain's house on numerous occasions and have stayed in all of the rooms over time. Given that each space has it's own ambience and perks, I have no preference -- knowing wherever I stay offers unique amenities.
The common space is generous of both view and function. Dinner prepared in an authentic antique farm kitchen and served on the long table becomes an event, and the local farmer's market and seafood purveyors offer excellent quality.
Ocean view sunsets from the rocking chairs on the deck are not to be missed, and a great location from which to Bar-B-Que in the Summer months.
In the cooler months, your group can gather 'round the grand piano or hunker down in front of the old stone fireplace in the comfort of a cushy sofa and still see the show on the horizon through the expanse of glass doors and windows.
The house is a bucolic walk to one of the planet's most amazing beaches.
A slice of sand is punctuated by quintessential New England boulders and anchored by the most gorgeous background of striated clay cliffs in soothing tones of terra cotta, rose, dove and warm greys.
Whatever adventures or quietude you take during the day, an evening in the hot tub beneath the stars with the lull of the ocean's surf, and you'll be sure to have sweet dreams.
The owner, Elise LeBovit, is knowledgeable and gracious.
The accommodations are friendly to all ages.
The experience is extraordinary.

serenity by the sea
this house in Aquinnah was a perfect getaway from the hectic pace of life. Took a hot steam in the cute sauna, then went for a moonlight walk on the beach, the sounds of the crickets and waves are so soothing.
Love the room with the bathtub, pull back the curtains and you have a bath with a view of the ocean, so sweet. The other 2 rooms upstairs also have nice balconies with ocean views, and 2 have views of the lighthouse also, one room has a big framed bed and a twin bed, nice chaise lounge in one room. The cabin on the side of house was perfect for our teen, with a separate door that opens to give an ocean view. The downstairs was lovely with fireplace in the sitting room and porch swing on the backyard area. The sauna is in a little room off this area. The hot tub was perfect for 4 to sit and star gaze, so many stars here! The beach is a 5 min walk through a wooded path. You can walk up to the end of the road where there are some lunch spots, a few have dinner depending on the season, also gorgeous views from there. Do plan on food, as most other towns are about 20-30 minutes drive, so we brought groceries & wine with us and went out a few nights as well. Elise is great, having spent over 30 years here she knew everything about everything, great recommendation on Polly Hill arboretum & the farmers market. We will be back!

この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
I bought this property to preserve the old feeling of Gay Head. I wanted to save the history of the house and hold a space in Town for the old ways. I kept the house as much as I could to portray it as it would of felt 200 years ago. I upgraded to rebuild as a passive solar house and added to the already conserving features. I saved the house because of the beautiful stone work.
この宿泊施設の特徴
There are wonderful ocean views from the upstairs bedrooms and a short walk to the beach. The open fields provide room to experience nature and privacy. It is special to be able to see the full moon coming up and the sunset on the ocean at the same time. Hearing the ocean and seeing the lighthouse are relaxing and experiencing star filled nights are special in our open skies.
