What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
It’s a remarkably well-preserved piece of Gothic Revival architecture. The interior style is classic meets contemporary, traditional in character but all sparkling new.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Upper Main Street sits a short walk from Edgartown harbor, red-brick sidewalks, and historic nineteenth-century whaling captains' homes.
The rooms
Coastal New England interiors frame king beds dressed in Frette linens, while private bathrooms feature deep soaking tubs.
The spa and gym
The Rejuvenation Spa houses an infrared sauna and steam shower, set alongside a fitness room with cardio equipment.
At the table
Breakfast draws on ingredients from island farms, and afternoon tea brings freshly baked scones to the porch or dining room.
How it began
First welcoming guests in the 1920s, the former private residence hosted a young John F. Kennedy during a 1940s sailing regatta.
