Owned by a lovely and welcoming couple, the Palmer House Inn boasts a property that honors prominent writers. The Inn’s mascot Brody and the staff truly made the stay at the beautifully aged Victorian home one of a kind. Our only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer.

The Palmer House Inn was a beautiful B&B located within walking distance of shops, dining and Martha's Vineyard ferry. The first thought my wife had was that "they thought of everything!" Every detail was attended to. Inn owner Tom was very friendly and helpful with recommendations. We have stayed at many B&Bs and this one was one of the best!

Best B&B

Amazing property and stay at The Palmer House Inn. Very gracious hosts, delicious breakfast and amazing room. Very clean and comfortable bed with the most amazing linens. I did not want to get out of bed. Beautiful property and plenty of parking at no charge. Felt like I left all of the world's worries behind .... Gardens so beautiful and the attention to detail on every item considered. We would definitely stay again. Brodie, their dog, was just an added bonus when we checked in. Very memorable part of our vacation.

Perfect gem

On a scale of 1 - 10.....I rate it a 20. It was such a beautiful place and in the perfect area. We walked to dinner, came back and relaxed on the porch. We were enjoying the peace and quiet and then we heard the church bells ring 8 times and then a little song played ever so softly. The Inn had beautiful antique furniture. Always had some, water, coffee and snacks out. The sweetest woman checked us in and then showed us around. We definitely want to come back and stay for 3 or 4 nights.
