Spacious Waterview Condo - Steps To The Beach, Right Across The Street!

10/10 Excellent
"This property is by far the best property I’ve ever rented on Martha’s Vineyard and I’ve been traveling there the same time for the past 15 years. The master bedroom patio /porch had the best view of the beach. You can also access the patio from the dining room so everyone in the house is able to enjoy it. The home was very clean. It is located right in the heart of Oak Bluffs, where all the action is going on. Although everyone passed by and I could see everything, it was never noisy. It was nice to see all the people pass by and have a direct view of the Polar Bears each morning. I really like the fact that we did not have to rent towels or sheets once we got on the island. Bath towels, sheets & bed spreads, beach towels and beach chairs were provided by the owner. Whenever I had a question or needed anything, the host responded to every text/ phone call within minutes. I would definitely recommend this property and will be staying here again."
