The Beachfront Inn

What a great find! My family made a last minute plan to go to Martha’s for a short 1.5 day and 1 night trip. In an eleventh hour search for BBs, I came across Samoset. And I am so glad I did.
First — innkeepers — Mev (niece of the owner of the house) and the other one (I think his name is Bob) were fantastic. Mev was so accomodating from the get go. The Inn itself is old and has so much history to it;wish we had some more time to talk about it with the Keeper.
This B&B is in a stellar location, right across the beach and close to the ferrh dock. Trust me you wanna stay in Oak Bluffs and then take either the tour bus, rent a bicycle/​motorcycle or car and then go to the other towns.
The rooms have no ac but have fans and are well aerated. We had about 4 other people in the other rooms however I really disnt hear anyone obnoxiously loud — there was some noise through the night from the streets but it didnt bother me too much. The breakfast was continental and the innkeepers baked coffee cake was amazing!
They actually let us use the rooms after it was officially our time to sign out.
The pleasant staff in the B&B, the wifi/​rooms and its accessibility from all the places on the island made our short trip a really memorable one! Thankyou guys.

This is my response to Inn-keeper’s insulting response to my previous post.
I stayed at their place and my review was based on my real and terrible experience. I am also complaining that this inn-​keeper posted my real name and address (!) in a website called Blacklist (collecting all fraud cases) for a reason I complained their property in a website. As Inn-​keeper, they should keep the client information confidential. I never broke any laws, just simply complained about their service. But wise customers can have an insight how this Inn operates. Their response is not appropriate as professional. Unilocal is a website collecting a real and honest feedback from customers. I hope this Inn-​keeper stops behaving unprofessionally and stop insulting customers.
Possible clients — please also check with other travel site and others’ views. I would not recommend this place to my worst enemies, you may have problems for many years as they attack you if you post a negative review.

Loved staying here. You cannot beat the location — the house right across the street from the beach and a close walk to the ferry and town center. Marlene was very nice and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a great Martha’s Vineyard vacation experience!

PROS:
–Fantastic location. You’re literally across the street from the beach and a five-​seven minute walk from Circuit Avenue. Can’t beat that.
–Rooms are not overly kitchy. I do not like lots of flowers and lace so this was nice for me. I stayed in the Apricot room, and it was clean, light, and airy, with minimal lace. (It was kind of pinkish, but then again, it was the apricot room.)
–Ceilings are high and while the smaller rooms are small, they’re not cramped, and the high ceilings kind of make you feel like you’re in a treehouse. I loved that feeling.
–There is wifi.
–The owners and everyone staffing the B&B were very nice, warm, and welcoming. I have stayed at some B&Bs were it was just kind of awkward, and this one was not like that. They were genuinely pleasant.
–They make it clear on the website that the rooms don’t have AC, but do have fans. Honestly, we barely needed the fans– the house stays fairly cool, and so did our room, even though we were on the second floor.
–My parents were there at the same time we were, and their room had a little balcony overlooking the beach, which was awesome.
–The beds were EXTREMELY comfortable. Definitely as good as top of the line hotels that I have stayed in. And a ton better than many budget hotels. It also happens to be better than my own bed, although that may just say more about my own place.
CONS:
–It’s an old house. Floors creak, walls are thin, etc. If you’re the kind of person who avoids rooms near the elevator in a standard hotel, beware. You will hear people walking around periodically. It didn’t bother me, but I thought it was worth mentioning.
–I would describe the style of the house (not the rooms) as older. Not kitchy in the way that someone deliberately tried to make things overly floral, but in the way that it’s full of older pieces and antiques from someone’s life. Not my style, but I made good use of the rocking chairs on the front porch and was quite content that way.
–Breakfast is not full style breakfast, but continental (toast, jam, tea, etc). Again, this is something that’s clear on the website, but if you’re looking for the traditional hot breakfast of many B&Bs, this is not your place.
