Love the lobby and amenities
Verified review

8/10 Very good

A few smaller items that made the stay slightly questionable, no elevator bags had to be carried. Not much to do about that in an historical building, but it's a note for guests. I would expect a notch better, especially when coming to bedding. The bed was comfortable, but I would expect down pillows and blanket at this price point. The record player was a lovely touch. Parking was challenging, but again, historical town we must make compromises. Wonderful shower towels, GREAT pool and hot tub area. The location of the hotel is / was supreme. Only coffee offered in the lobby, no inroom machine, and no option of a latte, or capp in the hotel or lobby, only in adjacent restaurant. (Loud bathroom fan, bug in room, a little mildew build up on the shower grout, definite degradation happening on plumbing fixtures. At this price point, should be better)

We had a very nice stay at Faraway and enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The common areas were well maintained and clean. Staff was all lovely. Parking can be tricky in Edgartown so take a cab if you can but they do provide overflow lots.

Verified review

8/10 Very good

The property is absolutely beautiful and the location is terrific. I really wanted to give this place a 5/5. But for some reason my room didn’t have heat (it was cold when I arrived!), the heater/AC unit wasn’t working and instead of relocating me (which maybe they couldn’t do?) I was given a space heater (and an apology from the front desk staff who explained that the heater was previously out of order). But for the price to stay at this place I don’t think that’s acceptable— even at a 3 star you’d be moved to another room. One other very minor thing— no room service at the property.
