Amazing vibe, beautiful property, super comfortable rooms/bed and always got excellent recommendations from the staff. Amazingly refurbished property - we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Our only caveat is that the rooms are not well soundproofed - conversations are easily heard in conjunctive rooms, outside, etc.

This hotel is in the most convenient location to everything Edgartown. Everyone we met on the staff were kind and helpful. The Provided bathrobes were lovely We were a bit disappointed In the lack of dresser space. Only one small drawer in the night table. We were also a bit disappointed that there was no heat in the hotel. It was not turned on. On our last day, when we returned from being out all day, our room keys did not work. The staff was Incredibly helpful trying to get this fixed. After changing the battery failed, we were given a master key, which worked. However because of the key issue, we did not receive any housekeeping services that day. Although The hotel does provide coffee in the morning, we would have appreciated it being offered later in the afternoon when we returned after being out all day.

Great property, however, no elevators so if you have trouble with stairs, ask for the first floor. Also, the doors on the main building do not have locks on them. After I complained about the security of guests with open doors, the front desk girl acted indifferent and told me other guests have complained too. When I said why don’t you tell the manager, she shrugged. A real dummy. I told her I was going to put something on social media and it didn’t seem to faze her. I hope the Faraway management is reading this and will take action. It’s not that hard guys to put locks on doors.

Parking advertised as available but in reality very limited to first come, first served, only about 10 spaces are on premises while additional, still small spot, is located couple of street away. Hotel is recently renovated so everything is in very good shape, outside and pool area are very nice but inside not so (I was in main building) Whoever did interior design should be fired, random pieces of decorations, orange and brown motive, strange green paint in hallway. My room (king) was large comparing to others at 320 sq ft but for some strange reason had window AC while others had not. Advertised with full size fridge, in reality it is just micro one, no coffee maker. Site proudly display turntables in every room, interesting addition if only works, ours was not. Safe in the room was locked open, unable to use. Staff is nice and helpful, they offered to address the issues but shouldn't it be all ready upon my arrival? Speaking about arrival, when I was filling pre-arrival form, I stated desire to check in early. Not only I was unable to check in early but not even on time at advertised 4pm, our room was not ready until 4:30. Manager was apologetic, offered explanation and compensation but I would prefer to avoid sitting in the lobby for long time. Overall, Faraway is one of the better options in Edgartown but not the best.

We were on the Vineyard for our 20th wedding anniversary and our stay at Faraway was amazing. From our room in the Courthouse, to the pool and lobby, the ambience here is incredible. The only thing that beats the vibe here is the staff. Everyone we met was beyond helpful and made this one of the best trips we have ever taken. Thank you!
