    About Faraway Martha\u0027s Vineyard

    Edgartown, Massachusetts, on the island of Martha’s Vineyard, is among the most historic places in the United States. Once home to the American whaling industry, it’s now one of the leisure capitals of the Northeast, and many old sea captains’ stately homes have been transformed into guest houses and hotels. Faraway Martha’s Vineyard comprises six of them; and while, with nearly two centuries in business under one name or another, it’s one of the oldest hotels in the country, its new owners have updated it for the 21st century, even as they’ve preserved the atmosphere that makes it so unique. The rooms and suites differ slightly from unit to unit in size, layout, and finishes, by virtue of their being set in several distinct houses. All, though, share a consistent throwback-maritime style, entirely appropriate to their setting, as well as the comforts and subtle luxuries you expect from a modern boutique hotel. And while there’s no shortage of places to eat and drink around town, Faraway Martha’s Vineyard has one of the best: The Newes from America, an upscale pub that mixes British and American influences and makes excellent use of the freshest local seafood.
