Great trip. My first to Martha's Vineyard and it was enjoyable. Admiral Benbow is only about 3 miles from the ferry is very easy to get to by car. Mary was so sweet. The rooms are perfect. Clean so clean. The bed was alittle stiff but that was the only negative. The bathroom was HUGE and the tub was big enough to fit 2 adults to take a romantic bath together. For breakfast there was no pancakes and bacon but there was bagels, coffee and OJ in the dining area. The inn is very nice I am telling you. Stay here. It is walking distance to Oak Bluff center if you want. All in all I am happy with Admiral Benbow and I would stay here again if I ever made the trip back to Marthas Vineyard.

From the moment I stepped through the door, I felt the love. Mary, Bill, and I can't forget my favorite new furry friend Gilligan, made my first visit to MV an amazing experience. Mary is down to earth, has a great style of humor, not to mention remarkable insight on what to do around the vineyard. Every suggestion she made was golden. My only regret is I did not stay longer. Honestly, already making plans for a follow up visit next spring. The Inn is close to public transportation, shopping, dining, and boating. Thank you Mary for going beyond being just the innkeeper. See you soon. Warmly, Taryn Hunter, New York, October 6, 2009

My husband and I stayed at the Admiral Benbow in Sept. 08 during our our first trip to MV and we can't wait to return! The Inn is impeccably clean and just beautiful. The innkeepers are extremely welcoming and treated us like "family". Mary is exceptionally helpful, accommodating and went to great lengths to help us, generously offering an extra night in "our" room when we feared being unable to leave the island due to a storm. It's truly a home away from home. HIHGLY recommended! R and A, Connecticut

I stayed here the last few summers. I highly recommend this nice pleasant B&B. From the moment you arrive you recieve stellar service. Bill & Mary Moore are extremely nice and offer you advice on resturaunts, beaches, and sights. The rooms i have stayed in were very nice. There are beautiful gardens and a Koi pond where you can read and relax. The town is a 10 min walk and the bus stops right on the main road if you wanted to travel to any of the other towns on the Island.

My husband Chris and I vacationed in Martha's Vineyard last summer where we wed and "honeymooned." Bill and Mary were absolutely amazing! They offered impeccable service, and they gave us the best tips for fun and dining. We couldn't have had a more wonderful wedding, or a more wonderful stay at the Admiral Benbow Inn.

I stayed at he Admiral Benbow 3 years ago. This is a great inn that was in a great location. It is about a 10-15 minute walk to town. The inn keepers were kind people who made my stay pleasant. There was no television in the rooms, but that was ok because I visited Martha's Vineyard in order to sightsee.

We stayed here in early May 2008 prior to the season opening, and loved it! The rooms were great, the breakfast delicious and the hosts wonderful. They gave us good advice as to what to do, and where to eat. We rate it as one of the best B&Bs that we have visited in the USA!

We stayed from May 11 2008 to May 18 for our honeymoon. The place was lovely and the hostess was laid back knowledgable and sweet. Don't worry about the gas station it's across the street and was not a problem. I found the place to be quiet, although it was off-season. I loved the gardens and backyard. When you went out on the porch all you can smell was lavender. The breakfast was continental, but a nice array of bagels, croissants, and muffins. They also had cereal and fruit, coffee and OJ. Only drawback is we found it to be pretty far from Oaks Bluff center. About a mile or more, so if you don't mind hoofing it...we had a car so that wasn't an issue for us.

We had a nice time there last summer, but it is on the main road, and traffic is steady and not really peaceful. The gardens are lovely, and pleasant to sit in. But, do ask for a room in the back of the inn!
