The Island Queen boat heading out in the water

Island Queen VIP Arrival Package

If you’re coming to the island without a car, enjoy the most comfortable  and convenient arrival option with our Island Queen VIP Arrival Package with guaranteed parking on the mainland and pickup/drop-off at the ferry on Martha’s Vineyard. 

The Island Queen crossing takes 35 minutes. On select trips, we will meet you on the other side and bring you, your family, and your luggage to the Resort. The Island Queen supplies convenient parking within walking distance to the dock. The boat line has guaranteed Winnetu Oceanside Resort guests parking in their lots as long as a Winnetu voucher is shown to the parking attendant. Please Note: Parking is $20.00 per calendar day; cash only.

Winnetu guests must pre-reserve both the boat and on-island transfers by ordering directly through our reservations office.  Please do not order on the Island Queen website.
