A perfect home base!

We enjoyed our stay at Jan's place in Oak Bluffs immensely. It was in the perfect location, equidistant to Vineyard Haven, OB, and Edgartown. The beds were super comfortable and there was good enough space for a single family of 4. Laundry facilities made it super easy to stay on top of beach towels, etc. We had a small problem with the towels provided but Jan quickly responded with new towels. Of note, the property has a split a/c in the living room and fans in the remaining spaces. The bedrooms are not "air conditioned" specifically, but there is excellent air circulation and everyone in our party was comfortable with fans, if needed. We felt very welcomed by the Host and would stay here again.

Peaceful Experience

The place was clean , organized, and had a healing presence. I took advantage of Jan's healing hands work and it enhanced my stay. Listen to him, when he recommends that you should have a car. The bus does come up often, but if you are from the suburbs and are not used to busing that could be an interesting adventure. Overall, I would stay again. It is close to everything but you still get your relaxing time..

Great location, could use some updating & amenities

The house was a great landing spot for a weekend when we didn't plan on spending too much time in our rental. The location is super central and convenient to everything and the host was super responsive during our entire stay. Our primary complaint is that the bathroom of the unit was run down and in need of necessary updates and replacements, as was some of the furniture throughout. The unit also lacked towels and pillows.

Perfect location for a low key stay

This apartment is gorgeous. The open plan, living, dining room, and kitchen are lined with sun-drenched windows. The place is incredibly comfortable. The kitchen and bathroom are fully outfitted with great attention to detail - you will need nothing. There are two bedrooms, with one queen sized bed in each. The mattresses are firm (I loved it but if you don't like firm be aware of it!). The sofa is big enough to accommodate a sleeper also if needed. The heating system worked well, took us a few minutes to figure it out. It is a little confusing that there is a gorgeous wood stove in the living room but you cannot use it - we didn't need it for heat though. We were there in November, so we did not use the deck or outside. It looked nice though with a grill available for your use. The location is just off the town border with Vineyard Haven/Tisbury, in an unpaved development so it is not really, walkable for getting into town etc. having a car available is needed if you plan on touring a lot. There is a driveway for you to park in. This is not a rental for having parties etc. - it is a quiet neighborhood with your landlord living below you - so set your expectations. It exceeded ours and we hope to return again soon.

perfect last minute vacation

We decided late in the high season to book a trip in state. We found Jan's place to be the perfect retreat for our getaway. We brought a family of 5 for our first Martha's Vineyard vacation, and had the best time. The rental was well equipped and clean. Jan was very accomodating. We had everything we needed, and it was an excellent location in our opinion. It was a short drive to Edgartown and a stone's throw from Vineyard Haven center. Thank you, Jan!

Quiet neighborhood; nice house with great deck!

The house is as pictured in the photos, the bedrooms were nice and the kitchen and washer/dryer were great amenities to have for our stay. There is a separate driveway in case you rent a car or get picked up. Jan was pleasant; he did contact me thinking he heard shoes on the floors (he is downstairs) although no shoes were worn inside, per the instruction/rules paperwork he provided. Some of the windows do not have handles on them; open windows with the air on is a concern listed on the instructions sheet. The rooms do not have over head lights but the outside shower is nice. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves and the outside deck is lovely and secluded. We came for the film festival.

Oak Bluff vacation

I had mixed feelings about this property. The owner was very easy to work with and helpful. The inside of the home was very clean and adequately furnished. However, if you are looking for a charming Martha's Vineyard home, this is probably not the home for you. It is very ordinary as far as the home and furnishings are concerned, and is in a neighborhood with other homes close by. While it is an easy drive to Edgartown and other towns, it is a suburban neighborhood. I was very disappointed with the upkeep of the deck and yard. It was not a place we wanted to hang out at, except to sleep.
