“Attleboro House-great view of harbor”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 September 2006

This is a very old Bed & Breakfast. But , no breakfast. I stayed on the second floor where we had to share bathrooms. The bathrooms were clean. The room was clean and simple. The bed was comfortable. This was my first time staying at a Bed & Breakfast so I wasn't sure what to expect. There is a wraparound porch, so we sat outside our room on the rocking chairs that were provided and played cards on the table. The view is fabulous, you are directly across the street from the harbor. Great location, close to everything, no need for a vehicle.

  • Liked — the location
  • Disliked — no breakfast!
  • Tips/Secrets — know you are sharing bathrooms with others

“Inn is nice, stay away from the cottage”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 August 2006

The Attleboro house seems nice and the porch was a great place to sit and chat, people watch or read a book after a fun day sightseeing. The inn was filled but the cottage behind it was available. Although this alternative is very affordable, it is not worth it. It was dirty, it smelled of a combination of dirt, dog urine and smoke. We were afraid to walk in our bare feet or sit on the couch without a cover over it. Then there were the ants. The kitchen was crawling with them. We made the best of a bad situation by spending as little time as possible in the place. With a good cleaning, some new carpeting and furniture this could be a great little cottage.

I would be ashamed to rent out something like this and take people's money.

  • Liked — cheap
  • Disliked — everything else
  • Tips/Secrets — don't book the cottage

FYI The cottage in back has nothing to do with the Attleboro House. The island was totally booked not a room to be found anywhere. We were doing a favor for this guest and the owner of the cottage.

If you are looking for a great value this is the place to stay in Oak bluff but even if your not looking for that THIS is the best place to stay in Oak bluff. It is right overlooking the harbor with great views and porche to enjoy watching the sunset at night. My boyfriend and I stayed here for a week and it was a wonderful experience!

“Beautiful, perfect!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 December 2002

people found this review helpful

I had the best holiday of my life, starting in Boston, moving onto Falmouth, and then over to Marthas Vineyard for 3 days. It was the prettiest, sweetest most inviting place i have ever been to. This hotel just topped it all off! A lovely old house with a charming landlady. We stayed in the room at the top that looks over the harbour, the lightest and sunniest room. Just perfect. My mind may have been slightly clouded as i was with the love of my life but nevertheless,its a romantic, ideallic place to be.

“Great place to stay in Oak Bluffs”

I stayed here every summer when I was young and I hope to return soon! It was very much like a typical Martha's Vinyard gingerbread house, except much larger. It is close to the center of Oak Bluffs. A wonderful place to stay with an old-fashioned Martha's Vinyard feel to it!
