Oak Bluffs
Wesley Hotel
With 95 rooms in two buildings, the historic Wesley Hotel is one of the largest hotels on the island and is just two blocks from the ferry in Oak Bluffs. The Victorian-style hotel has been in operation since 1879 and is one of the first things you see as you approach Oak Bluffs Harbor by boat. You couldn’t ask for a better location—you’re steps from the public beach, as well as town.
