Luxury Vacation Rentals on Martha’s Vineyard

For discerning travelers seeking privacy, beauty, and timeless New England charm, luxury vacation rentals on Martha’s Vineyard offer an experience unlike anywhere else on the East Coast.

From waterfront estates in Chilmark to historic harbor homes in Edgartown, the island has become one of America’s most sought-after destinations for families, executives, and international travelers looking for an elevated summer escape.

At Grace Hagerty Real Estate (GHRE), we specialize in representing some of the island’s most exceptional luxury rental properties.


Why Luxury Travelers Choose Martha’s Vineyard

Visitors return year after year for:

• Private beaches and pristine coastline
• World-class sailing and boating
• Exceptional farm-to-table dining
• Scenic bike paths and nature preserves
• A welcoming yet discreet community

For many families, a luxury vacation rental on Martha’s Vineyard becomes an annual tradition.


The Most Desirable Luxury Rental Locations

Chilmark

 

Chilmark is considered one of the most exclusive areas on Martha’s Vineyard.

Luxury rentals here often include:

• Multi-acre estates
• Sweeping Atlantic Ocean views
• Private beach access
• Guest houses and tennis courts
• Exceptional sunset views

Travelers seeking privacy and natural beauty often prioritize Chilmark properties.


Edgartown Village & Harbor

 

Edgartown offers the classic Vineyard setting: historic architecture, harbor views, and walkable charm.

Luxury renters enjoy being close to:

• Edgartown Harbor
• Lighthouse Beach
• Fine dining and boutiques
• The Edgartown Yacht Club
• Scenic harbor walks

Village rentals are especially popular with travelers who enjoy being able to walk or bike everywhere.


West Chop & Vineyard Haven Waterfront

 

West Chop offers a quieter luxury experience with dramatic harbor views and classic Vineyard estates.

Many waterfront homes feature:

• Deep water access
• Large lawns and gardens
• Private docks
• Sunset views over Vineyard Sound

This area is particularly attractive to boating families and long-time Vineyard visitors.


What Defines a True Luxury Rental on Martha’s Vineyard

The island’s top properties go far beyond typical vacation homes.

Luxury rentals frequently include:

• Heated pools and spas
• Private beach access
• Chef-level kitchens with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances
• Guest houses for extended family
• Tennis or pickleball courts
• Outdoor entertaining spaces
• Concierge services

These homes are designed to provide the comfort of a private estate with the experience of a luxury resort.


When to Book a Martha’s Vineyard Luxury Rental

Prime summer weeks — particularly late June through August — typically book six to twelve months in advance for the most sought-after properties.

Many repeat guests secure their favorite homes a full year ahead of time.

Early planning ensures access to the island’s most exceptional homes and locations.
