Great studio, felt more like a one bedroom with plenty of space. Strong water pressure in shower. Beautiful back yard with turkeys roaming around. Easy walk to town shops and restaurants. I would say the walk from the ferry station to the home is more like 10 minutes.

Cozy in Vineyard Haven

We were greeted warmly by Debbie. The place was clean and had everything we needed for a pleasant stay in the Vineyard. Appreciated the books on Martha’s Vineyard, the turkeys in the back and having coffee in the mornings on the front porch. Rent this place. You won’t regret.

Wonderful Stay!

This studio apt. is immaculate and comfortable and has such a friendly feel to it. It is also in such a convenient location to access all parts of the Island. The studio has everything you might need for your stay. It has a spa like cozy feel to it. It also has AC which was refreshing for some hot days. The host, Deborah is delightful to talk with and was so helpful in answering any questions. I stayed with my little 5 lb dog and we enjoyed going for walks and to different parts of the Island to explore and enjoy the ocean. I had a wonderful 3 day stay there. I feel fortunate to have stayed at Deborah's studio.

We absolutely loved our stay at this perfect Vineyard home! The living space was so comfortable, making it easy to relax after a day exploring the island. The host was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even more special. Everything about the home and location was exactly what we were hoping for. We can’t wait to come back!

This was our third or fourth time staying at Deborah's Sea Captain rental. Perfect for a couple and pet friendly. Ideal location, a literal minute ot two from the VH ferry. There is a park one street over on the causeway for walks with your pet. All the amenities you could need. We have stayed other places but always come back (when its available!). Deborah and Ken are friendly, hospitable and knowledgable about the island. Highly recommend. We consider it our island home :)

Central Location

My first time to the island and it was a phenomenal location to hop to all the other towns. Right near the ferry, access to buses, grocery stores, restaurants, souvenir shops. The only downside is no sidewalk on the house side on a very busy street, although drivers are generally kind to pedestrians. Apartment has everything needed for a pleasant stay. I was pleasantly impressed.

Wonderful

It is a lovely efficiency apartment within a large stately home with a neighborhood feel. It has its own entrance, an outside deck with a grill, and privacy.The owner thinks of everything you would need for your stay informational pamphlets and maps of the towns, a kitchen setup, and extra towels including beach bag and towels. The location can’t be beat-close to town, beach, bus, and ferry. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Very relaxing. This is our third visit and we look forward to coming back. Mary Sullivan Kelley

Wonderful Studio apartment in Vineyard Haven

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Captain's House Studio. The home had everything we needed - appreciated use of the beach towels. It was so pleasant sitting on the deck after biking all day. Deb's gardens are beautiful. Deb was an excellent host - highly recommend this home!

Location

Nice unit. Reasonable rate. Excellent hostess. Problem is the unit is only 30 feet from State Road, which is a major thruway to the upper island. Needed to leave the A/C on to muffle the road noise.

Annual visit

My husband and I, along with our dog, vacation on the island every summer. This was our 4th year staying at this property. You couldn't ask for a better location and the studio rental has all the amenities that you would need. Deborah and her partner are super welcoming and will provide as little or as much assistance you request. She maintains a beautiful property and keeps her rates affordable and pet friendly. This is the only place we even look to stay when planning our trips. I would and do recommend her to anyone that asks about visiting the island!
