My family had an incredible time staying at this house. My two kids (ages 3 and 1.5) loved looking for frogs in the pond and my dog loved running around the large yard. During the day, we went to the beach right down the road and at night, we went out to dinner in a nearby town or ate at home and made s’mores by the fire. I highly recommend if you want to have a perfect vacation.

The house is comfortable and welcoming, and the location is so peaceful. My family had a wonderful week!

It was a perfect secluded getaway with access to a gorgeous beach. The house was clean and stocked with all the necessary items needed for our long weekend stay. The owners were prompt to reply to any questions our group Had. Look forward to future stays.

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!
