Great House in Perfect Location
This was our first time staying in Falmouth Heights and this house and the town did not disappoint. We vacationed here late August and it was perfect for our family of four and our dog. The house was ready early for us to move in and upon arrival it was so lovely to have a personalized letter and surprise for the kids. Every room was spotless and thoughtfully decorated. Communication with the owners was great. In addition to that, there are two binders at the house with plenty of useful information on restaurants and recreation. We very much appreciated all of the information on where to dine because our family enjoys a good meal. When we didn’t dine out we enjoyed our home cooked meals in the sun lit dining room or outside on the patio of the large fenced in yard. The location is outstanding. It is a short walk to the beach and restaurants. After so many years of having to drive to park and pay to go on the ferry to Martha’s Vineyard, it was awesome to walk around the corner and hop onboard. You are able to walk or take a short ride to every store you could want or need. It was great for our morning and evening strolls to the beach and marina. The house was stocked with everything we needed for cooking and it saved us a lot of room in our truck not having to bring our own beach chairs and cart. After every relaxing and fun day, we got to fall asleep on the super comfy beds and pillows. The sheets and blankets have me thinking that I have to up my own linen game back home. We did not want to leave. Even our pup seemed to be sulking when we left!

Celine and Ruben were wonderful hosts. They were very responsive, clear, helpful, and warm. The space was lovely and worked well for my family (5 adults.) We were attending a wedding and had ample space to get ready, hang out, and relax. The deck is very peaceful and private, you may notice some fireflies if you sit out on the side area on a wet night. We did not visit the beach but were out and about in town (a short drive) and ended up at two restaurants suggested by our hosts. The check in was easy. We arrived quite late at night and did need to ask one question but despite the hour, they immediately got back to us and reassured us we were doing the right thing. Upon check out, we all remarked on how nice the stay was and to remember this spot when we visit our family in the area. Thank you Ruben and Celine!
