Fodor's Expert Review Edgartown Inn

56 N. Water St., Massachusetts, 02539, USA

The inside of the former home of whaling captain Thomas Worth still evokes its late-18th-century origins—but with the boutique Lark Hotels group now in charge, the updated decor is best described as farmhouse chic, with airy spaces and vintage notes. Local art adorns the walls and shared spaces, like the lounge, are welcoming. White and grey bedspreads, natural woods, and wicker furniture keep rooms—some of which have harbor views—sleek and comfortable. Curated small plates for breakfast and afternoon snacks are a nice perk.
