    The 116-year-old Admiral Benbow Inn is a charming Victorian Inn surrounded by oak and maple trees, featuring a Victorian swing and hammock under the pine trees and by the bubbling stream and koi pond. The Inn was completely restored retaining the original wooden panels, frames, arches, and magnificent staircase. The first thing guests notice upon entering the Inn is the beautiful hardwood floors, and tiled fireplace in the sitting room. The sitting room is furnished with comformtable couches for relaxing. The dining room where a continental-plus breakfast is served, is furnished with an antique buffet and china cabinet. All the bedrooms are individually decorated with brass beds except for the master bedroom in which has a canopy bed, along with antique armoires, dressers and tables. The pictures and charts on the walls are a tour in themselves!

    Great location

    November 18, 2012

    The Admiral Benbow Inn is on the main bus route but is also within walking distance of Oak Bluffs center. The rooms are comfortable and Mary, the innkeeper is a wealth of knowledge regarding things to do and how to get there. I would stay there again ... maybe in the Spring or Summer when the garden is in bloom!

    Stay Here - You Won't Regret It!

    September 11, 2012

    I absolutley love this place! Mary and Bill are very accomodating, nice people. This is my first visit to MV and their recommendations for food, entertainment, clothing stores, etc were spot on. It's so comforting having friends here that you can rely on when you're in a new, unfamaliar place. The breakfast that was served was delicious and they provide a great variety- you MUST have one of their muffins they are yummy! I'm an avid coffee drinker so they always had my coffee ready when I woke up. I will for sure be back and let others know wbout this wonder B&B.

    A wonderful place to stay

    August 23, 2012

    Mary was wonderful and willing to do anything to help. She set hair appointments, had suggestions of what to do where to eat, etc. The rooms are lovely. The bowls of fruit in the morning were awesome, plus her home made muffins etc.

    Beautifully updated Inn, Exceptional Service

    August 23, 2012

    I have a home in Martha's Vineyard, near the Admiral Benbow Inn. When I got married this summer, I reserved the Inn for my family. The Inn Keeper went out of her way to accommodate my family. The Inn was updated with beautifully designed and very comfortable rooms. Breakfast was delicious and addressed family members gluten allergies....I would recommend this Inn with an outstanding rating.

    Admiral Benbow Inn on Martha's Vineyard

    August 13, 2012

    I was surprised to see dead branches with dried leaves on the front lawn. Place looked like it was not cared for very well. The wallpaper in our bathroom was peeling. For the money I would have expected a hot breakfast. Most B&Bs that we have stayed at serve a nice breakfast. The blueberry muffins and fruit were good and fresh but boxed cereal? Disappointing.

    Great Experience at Martha's Vineyard

    July 29, 2012

    We felt right at home from the start. In fact, we were given a less costly room as another guest cancelled. The location is walking is close to the ferry. DuWayne
