This Hotel on One of Martha’s Vineyard’s Best Beaches Was Just Named the #1 Resort in New England by Travel + Leisure Readers

By Lila Harron Battis for Travel +Leisure

“Situated right at South Beach on Martha’s Vineyard, the Winnetu Oceanside Resort is a beloved Katama fixture, and it still reigns supreme among T+L readers. With 54 rooms and suites, plus cottages, townhouses, and three- and four-bedroom standalone rentals, it’s an ideal place to convene with a crowd. The property’s 11-acre grounds include all the classic beach-resort facilities — two heated pools, tennis courts, a fitness center — plus a full slate of activities, from toddler-friendly sensory play for the littlest guests to late-night beachfront clambakes for the grown-ups.

For T+L readers, the Winnetu’s staff are what make it so special: One reader highlighted chef Richard Doucette’s work at Dunes, the on-site restaurant, while another commented that “the service in every way was excellent” across the whole of the property. All in all, as one guest put it, the Winnetu has assembled a great team of hospitality professionals.”
