Mom’s the Word on Martha’s Vineyard: Harbor View Hotel Hosts Mother’s Day Fun Over Pink & Green Weekend

Harbor View Hotel is celebrating Mother’s Day on Martha’s Vineyard with festivities for all. In addition to the hotel’s scrumptious Sunday brunch, the Edgartown Board of Trade is hosting its third annual Pink & Green Festival May 9-11. Those who are visiting the island for the weekend fun can enjoy a stay at Harbor View Hotel for rate of $249 per night.

While on the Vineyard, guests can treat Mom to an array of activities, including meals at Harbor View’s own Henry’s Hotel bar, featuring a menu of island-to-table cuisine; Edgartown’s many shops and galleries; and walking trails perfect for exploring the island’s flora and fauna. The hotel’s convenient location puts it just steps from the weekend’s Pink & Green festivities, including a cocktail contest, Cirque du Pink & Green at Donaroma’s Nursery, and the Pink & Green Ball at the Field Club.

On Sunday morning, Harbor View Hotel will toast moms with a special brunch at its award-winning Water Street restaurant from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., where diners can choose from a raw bar display, charcuterie and assorted cheeses, hot selections, and salads. During brunch, guests can also raise a glass to the winners of the Pink & Green Festival’s “Mom of the Year” essay contest winners as they each read their essays aloud at 11 a.m. Brunch is $58 for adults and $28 for children 12 and under.
