Martha's Vineyard
From the candyfloss and carousel charm of Oak Bluffs to the elegant boutiques and upmarket dining of Edgartown, Martha’s Vineyard is coastal chic with a dash of barefoot luxury. Summer retreat of everyone from wealthy Bostonians to Washington DC’s political elite, the Vineyard’s reputation precedes it but this is one place that certainly lives up to the hype.

Take morning strolls along deserted windswept beaches and enjoy long lunches overlooking scenic harbors where gleaming sailboats bob on the water. Dine on oysters, lobster, and fish fresh from that morning’s catch before retiring to cosy inns steeped in the history of this idyllic island.
