History
Faraway Martha's Vineyard is a reimagining of the historic Kelley House, one of the oldest properties in Edgartown, on a site with roots dating back to 1742. The Kelley House long served as a landmark inn and tavern complex near Edgartown Harbor before Jason Brown and Brad Guidi (Blue Flag Partners) took over in 2020.
Following a down-to-the-studs renovation, the property reopened in 2023 as a 58-room boutique resort blending its centuries-old heritage with a retro, family-friendly aesthetic. Rooms and suites frame ocean-front views of Edgartown Harbor and Chappaquiddick Island, and the property added a salt-water heated pool, a fitness center, and a new restaurant.
