Solera - Ocean Views, Steps to Inkwell Beach
Oak Bluffs Vacation Rental - ID 22456

This is the third time we have stayed at Solera, and for us, it is the perfect island location.

We walk to Circuit Ave, Ocean Park, and Inkwell beach, and take bike rides down Seaview Ave. Even while being close to all of these things, its still so quiet and private.

Also, the house itself is superbly kept, clean, neat, and up to date. Kitchen is spectacular! And the decor is the perfect island vibe. Not to mention drinks on the front porch, and the wonderful little balcony off the main bedroom.

Accessible, friendly, and available hosts make it that much better.

Not a day goes by that we don't think about getting back there! show more show less

We spent a wonderful five weeks in this house. All our visitors loved it. The owners supplied everything we could have wanted, and the wagon, beach chairs and toys were great for the short walks to Inkwell beach. Nephews loved fishing. House is beautiful and comfortable, and relaxing on the porch is the quintessential Vineyard vacation. We'll be back.

With this vacation being our first family overnight trip to Martha's Vineyard, we could not have been more pleased. This home is beautiful, full of charm and an authentic Vineyard feel. The history surrounding Solera was heart warming and it made us all feel right at home. We are a family of 6 with 4 teenagers. This location is ideal, with a short walk along the ocean to Oaks Bluff, and a simple 10-15 minute drive to Edgartown. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay and would rent again and again. Our thanks to the owners for all they have done to make this rental ideal! show more show less

I cannot say enough good things about Solera. The house has been remodeled and decorated with great attention to detail, keeping the charming feel of a Vineyard cottage while providing every upgrade you could imagine. The kitchen was large and easy to use, with a grill on the back deck. Our party was 4 adults and 4 children and we had more than enough room. The beds were very comfortable and with high quality linens (something you don't always find on the Vineyard). We spent plenty of time on the front porch or back deck enjoying Vineyard mornings and evenings, with the ocean just down the block. The proximity to the beach and the town center of Oak Bluffs makes the location of this home unbeatable. One of the highlights of the property is the fully stocked shed: bikes, sand toys, boogie boards, chairs, umbrellas, anything you need. What a luxury not to have to drag it all with us! I would recommend this house to anyone and hope I am able to enjoy it again in future years. show more show less

We stayed at Rick's house in 2017. The house was unbelievable. It had everything we could ever need and was very clean and well decorated. The location was ideal. We could walk or bike to town or the beach. We hope to rent the house again next summer!

Solera offers all of the beauty and convenience that a family could wish for in Oak Bluffs. The home amenities are top notch. It's clear that the owners take pride in making their home very comfortable for their guests. Also, this property is located on a lovely, quiet street that is super close to the beach. What a great vacation!

Perfect house, perfect location, perfect owners!

When my daughter said she wanted to get married on Martha's Vineyard - I knew the house would set the tone for the week!

We have stayed at the hostel twice, a B & B, a cottage in the campground, a house in Vineyard Haven, the Clarion and now Solera! We have worked our way up to perfection! Excellence is in the details. The attention to detail at Solera is amazing! I truly don't know what could be done to make it any better! The pictures listed don't do it justice - seeing is believing! Everything is high quality, top grade from one end of the house to the other. They outdid themselves when it came to decorating. There are not enough words...

We had cars - but for those using the bus system, the bus will pick up/drop off at the end of the street. It is an easy walk from the ferry and downtown.

Many amenities, including bikes, golf clubs, fishing gear and note that top quality linens are included. That is a huge plus! I loved the porch, very inviting! The upstairs balcony was great for quiet time and reflection.

The Solera was a great place to spend with our daughter before she got married, we will always have such wonderful memories!

Thank you, Rick & Chris, for making your beautiful home available to us! We truly enjoyed our stay! I'm ready to go back!!

We have been renting in Oak Bluffs for 7 years. Solera was by far the best property. Our family enjoyed the proximity to town. Comfortable set-up, central air!!, and spacious yard. Every night before dinner we played volleyball or badminton in the yard, and after dinner games on the porch. Not to mention the 9 burner gas grill that made cooking so easy! The kids easily walked to Back Door Donuts almost every night. All the rooms were spacious and comfortable with more than adequate bathrooms. It was great to have linens and towels supplied. We look forward to returning next summer!! show more show less

I have rented summer homes on Martha's Vineyard for many summers, and I have to say Solera was the very best of all for so many reasons. Location is everything, and my house guests and I all appreciated how close we were to the beach and to the many restaurants and activities of Circuit Avenue. I could walk to my favorite restaurant in 8 minutes!

The house is beautifully appointed and meticulously clean, both inside and out. It is so comfortable - maintaining the charm and history you expect on the Vineyard but with contemporary amenities. We felt like we had all of the conveniences of our home.

Here are just a few of the amazing spaces I grew to love about Solera during my 2 week stay:
-The kitchen. It is a cook's dream, with every appliance and utensil needed (and even a spice drawer!) to create amazing food experiences. The dining area is large, beautiful and well lit with natural light. We spent many mornings on the spacious deck right off of the dining area.
-The master bedroom. Spacious, airy, with its own balcony, where I sat many mornings to watch the spectacular sunrises over the sea. Amazing breezes on the balcony! The ensuite master bath is huge and modern, and I felt like I was in a luxury hotel, not a summer rental.
-The front porch. The breezes from the sea made this the choice spot of my house guests. The furniture is so comfortable that it was easy to spend an entire morning or afternoon there reading, or talking with family.

The owners have taken care of every detail - from the luxury linen to the plush bath towels. They even have beach towels, chairs, and bikes for use, and if we weren't on the porch, we were biking all around MV!

As Tina Tuner sang, Solera was "...simply the best. Better than all the rest." I can't wait to return! show more show less
