This was our 16th year visiting the Vineyard in May, our first time at the Dockside and we loved it. The coffee room was perfect with all of its snacks and goodies. My husband loved the malted milk balls. Can't wait for our five days of island fun next year!!

From the moment our multi-room family group arrived for the week-end, we had a great stay. Kathy gave us a warm, friendly welcome and couldn't have been more helpful showing us around, making sure we had everything we needed each time she saw us, and passing along tips to ensure our visit to Martha's Vineyard went well.

Just left our stay here and this place is simply lovely. In our late 20's looking for a place that's not crazy expensive,in town, bed and breakfast feel with hotel amenities and this place hits it on the nail. The cleanliness,service and added extras such as the cute little "coffee" room helps you to feel at home and welcome. Not... More

We stayed on Martha's Vineyard for two days in May. From the minute we checked in the entire staff was friendly, showed us around and told us the best places to check out! The bed and breakfast felt like an upscale hotel with all he renovations! We have traveled all over the world and my husband even commented it was... More

We'd like to thank this reviewer for their comments. Our harborview rooms are especially popular and afford terrific views of Oak Bluffs Harbor. Our in-town location is a prime reason we enjoy so many repeat customers, and as always, our staff strives to have you 'feelin' like a local' as soon as possible. More

Moving up from sunny south Florida to MV for the season was not very fun when greeted with no hot water or heat and ants large enough to take over the island. Needless to say, our summer house was not ready and we were in a bind, with no place to stay and all other local inn's closed. We came... More

We are thankful that this reviewer noted Lianne's superlative customer service; she is a truly special employee and goes out of her way to make every guest feel welcome. Clean comfortable rooms, Oak Bluffs harbor views, in-town location, close to everything; that's pretty much what we're all about at the Dockside Inn. We're glad you noticed; thanks! More

Stayed here for one night in April 2013 with my boyfriend, and despite the island being almost completely shut down (out of season) we had a great time. The B&B is in the perfect location, we had a great room overlooking the dock and we were very warmly welcomed. We were recommended cycle routes and excellent value cycle hire (right... More

The Dockside is in a great location on MV - right near the ferry in Oak Bluffs, in the midst of everything. Lianne at the front desk was extremely helpful in answering all of our questions, giving advice, and even having glasses of champagne ready for us when we checked in. The rooms are well-updated. They each have a fridge... More

I was instantly in love upon walking into the Dockside Inn and meeting Kathy. Her cheery demeanor and the quintessentially New England, nautical decor made me want to call work and say I wouldn't be coming back. Not one detail was overlooked - the cleanliness of the rooms (immaculate), the lovely outdoor garden and jacuzzi, and the adjoining coffee/snack area... More
