We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Silva property. It was the perfect R&R we all needed. The backyard is private yet close to the beach, lighthouse, and fun things to do in chilmark. It was also perfect for our black lab who enjoyed playing fetch on the lawn and relaxing by the hammock. We can’t wait to come back next summer!

We’ve been coming every summer to stay on the vineyard for years, and this was our fav rental. Plenty of space for the family, clean, had everything we needed. The yard was soo peaceful and beautifully manicured, and the little pond in the yard was fun to check out some frogs, turtles, & dragonflies. I would definitely recommend!

My family just returned from a fabulous trip to Aquinnah for the 4th of the July and this property was absolutely fantastic! We quickly fell in love with the home and property as soon as we got there. Honestly, the pictures of the listing did not do it justice. The rooms are much bigger than they look in the pictures. Also, each room has very large closets which made it easy to store our luggage. The house was extremely clean and they had lots of supplies too. We thoroughly enjoyed spending our nights by the fire pit or out on the covered porch. The kids had a blast looking for frogs in the pond or running around the secluded yard. The property really is a perfect little oasis for families with young kids.
We like staying on this side of the island so we can quickly get to Menemsha for sunsets even though we spend most of our days out on Chappy. We had never actually stayed in Aquinnah before and I have to say it is my new favorite. Doing the drive every day back and forth to the house was just so beautiful!
On top of how fabulous the house was, the owners were really amazing too. They were very responsive and extremely helpful to answer any of my questions and even allowed us an early check in the day we arrived. We appreciate them opening their home to us and we can’t wait to come back another time.
Just be careful of the ticks in the yard and make sure to check yourself for them daily. Pretty much all of us had them several times. Some were as tiny as a freckle.

a wonderful family stop off & completely accurate to a tee descriptions of available add ins..
If you are looking for off thhe beaten path this is your place & wonderfully close to a dog/family friendly Lobsterville beach (pass included)
the less than desirable surprise were the ticks...Island is rife w Lonestar ticks, so beware.

Our family of 4 stayed at the cozy getaway and it was everything we wanted and more!
Great amenities like the fire pit and outdoor shower. Very comfortable inside space and all the kitchen we needed for a few home cooked meals.
The Silva’s were excellent and responsive hosts. I’d give it more than 5 stars if able!

This house was a great place for my cousin and myself to stay while connecting with on-Island family over Christmas. I brought my dog, and she loved playing in the yard. A second story deck was the perfect place for morning coffee. We had a little trouble figuring out how to work the password for the Amazon Firestick, but other than that - excellent.

Gorgeous perfect house, huge garden, large kitchen with great stove and fridge, open plan with sitting area, excellent design, 3 double bedrooms, quiet rural location near Wampanoag land. No connection for T mobile, which was a problem for us, but internet connection was good. Worth stocking up with food and drink at a large supermarket when you arrive, as it is a long drive to the shops, unless you go to Grey Barn, where the much coveted raw (unpasteurised) milk and popular pastries sell out fast. Other local stores are a little expensive, though Alleys is worth a visit.

Very nice house and property in the quietest part of the island. Great thing is that it is only 2.5 miles away from the beach!!

We had an amazing time in Aquinnah! House was clean, very comfortable, and well equipped. We grilled, had bonfires, star gazed, and went to glorious Philbin beach. Lots of wildlife and away from the hustle/traffic of towns. We have stayed several places on the island and this is my favorite. Owners were very prompt when we had a few minor questions. Our dog was also happy.

We enjoyed all that the area had to offer. The house is set in a lovely wooded area with a pond. We really enjoyed being outside and visiting the nearby beaches and hiking trails. We also enjoyed having coffee on the deck and observing the various wildlife. Would highly recommend this property if you enjoy outdoor adventures.

My husband, myself, and our dog Gus really enjoyed our stay. The house and property was a quiet little oasis. The location was perfect for a relaxing vacation. We loved playing fetch in the yard with Gus, bike rides to the beach down the road, and relaxing at lobsterville beach. Kelly was quick to respond to all our needs and she even let us check in early. We cannot wait to come back!

This was a highly comfortable vacation home for our family in a gorgeous more isolated part of the island. The property was beautifully maintained, house with all needed amenities and more, and owners responsive and welcoming. We’ll be back!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The house is just so comfortable and the pictures truly do not do it justice. Our dog was in heaven exploring the large yard. This was such a perfect alternative to the busier sections of the island. Everything you could need was provided in the house and it was spotlessly clean. Thank you for for sharing your beautiful home!

MV Vacation
We had a wonderful time here. It’s a beautiful secluded home in a very quiet area of the island but close to everything. We swam, ate outside, grilled, chilled on the porches (loved it!). We will definitely be back!

Only negative was rental was not renovated and up to date as advertised. But very clean and owner response very good.
It was a little hard to find at night as no mailbox or house number at end of driveway.

We had a wonderful stay in Aquinnah! The house had everything we needed for a family of five, including our family dog. It was clean and comfortable! The house is located in an area that is quiet and peaceful, and only a short drive to the beaches. We hope to be back someday!

Vacation in Aquinnah
Wonderful location. Was perfect for the 6 of us as a home base for exploring the island.

Perfect House in Aquinnah!
The Silva's property was perfect:) The house looks better in person and more spacious than the pictures can show. Unlike most rentals that only provide the basics, the Silva is a home away from home with all the amenities. There outside grounds are amazing with plenty of parking and space to have a bbq or family fun. The rooms were a good size and I loved the open concept of the kitchen/living area. The bonus is the large porch to relax on and basement nook was great for teenagers or additional guests. Kelly was very responsive and a pleasure to communicate with. I would love to go back again and again!
