I am nit sure why they have received a couple of bad reviews. I am a hotel person, and I had no problem with staying here. The owner Danny could not have been nicer. We stayed in Oak Bluffs room. Nice towels, very clean, sheets and bed were average. But maybe I am spoiled from Hiltons !! I do have... More

Had the same problem several times while in Martha's: Attitude. At the restaurant, at the bus, even at the library (they refused to give us a glass of water!). Hight Haven House wasn't an exception, and we are happy they did us a favor and impulse us to move. We stood two days of beds not made and bedrooms not... More

Thank you for your opinion and input. You described the whole Island as having a bad attitude, but what you were probably experiencing was the push back from vendors and the companies because you were constantly trying to get things for free or lower rates and in a very un-polite and pushy way. Before we had even rented you a... More

Let me start by saying, while my stay rates "poor" this place does have potential. Danny - one of two brothers that own the place - seems to care. They other brother, not so much. And it shows. We arrived and Chris, the other brother, was handling check-in. He honestly did not even bother to greet us. He wordlessly walked... More

I must say we were a bit concerned about the negative reviews of this establishment, but they certainly were mistaken. Danny (the owner) was in contact with me the day before we arrived until we left. The room was just as we expected, nice and clean, without significant luxuries. There was, however, the requisite free wifi and flat screen TV.... More

I recently stayed at the inn with my two children (6 and 9) The walk to the shops, restaurants, and ferry terminal was perfectly manageable and took less then 10 min. The room was large, clean and had a kitchen if needed. The breakfast was simple but fine for a start and there are plenty of options close by. I... More

It is a little out of the way if travelling by foot and no where on their website do they provide a proper map with simple directions. We asked two Martha's Vineyard natives and they did not know where it was located. However we were travelling on bikes and we it only took 5 minutes to cycle there from the... More

This place was a bit deceptive in it's location, it is not .6 miles away especially when you have traveled 450 miles over land, sea and bus to get here and it's 90 degrees outside. The walk is pretty much all uphill and they have no courtesy shuttle (we called) we purposely did not take our car because this was... More

Hello, I'm sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy your stay at the High Haven House. This is our first season open and we like to think we are getting the hang of the Inn business. If I may I'd like to address some aforementioned points. 1.) Distance: Our Inn is exactly .6 of a mile from Main Street, the... More

Unfortunately, we have to say our stay at the High Haven B&B was far from ideal. We are a very well traveled couple who work in the airline business and although not having much experiences with B&B, we have to say it was really disappointing. We also understand the Vineyards are more expensive than mainland in general, but comparing prices... More

We are sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy your time at our Inn. The island can be expensive, as everything here must be shipped over from the mainland, gas prices are higher, and land costs much more. -As far a location is concerned, we are located on all maps as a 10 minute (.6 of a mile) walk to...
