Beyond words. Lavender Farm Wellness is a feel good sanctuary. I have been coming here for the past…read morefew months for oncology massage with Brandon. Brandon is the only provider on the island that has the training to provide this service. He is nothing shy of amazing. Given the delicate circumstances of such a massage, it takes a lot of trust and from my first visit, Brandon made me feel completely and utterly comfortable. He asks all the right questions and he listens carefully. I've had many massages elsewhere and while most of them were good, Brandon is the best by far. If you're looking for a truly transformative massage, come here!

The amount of education, experience, and knowledge he has about the body and his craft is apparent. The place was peaceful, clean, and welcoming. I am deeply appreciative of the nurturing care I received. I think it was a sign as when I walked in, the sky was cloudy and drizzly, and when I walked out, the sky was blue, and the sun was shining; it was a perfect image to describe the transformation of my body after my massage at Lavender Farm wellness. Thank you!

Triangle Fitness was the perfect solution. They offer short term memberships, and a packed schedule of fitness classes with imaginative options, in addition to a good assortment of machines and free weights. I liked my kickboxing cardio class, and also a slow yoga routine. The staff is friendly and helpful, the one drawback is the Friday evening traffic into Edgartown, which I avoided by biking over.

Force Five Water Sports, located on Union street, right before it intersects the perpetual…read morecongestion of Main Street, has been a Godsend. We've been twice in three days. What it has going for it: 1. A great selection of skimboards, reasonably priced (for ACK), from $50 wooden boards on up to high end carbon fiber. AND there's a massive amount of in-house expertise on skimboards circa June 2026, in the form of Teddy. Teddy was willing to generously share his knowledge and then gave us plenty of space to choose what we wanted without any pressure at all. WHAT A WINNER!!! 2. The Pardner and I are senile and of course forgot one of our wetsuits; surfboard wax; and swim goggles -- in addition to our progeny's skimboard. And we broke one of our boogie boards on day one. Force Five had us covered for all of the above, at prices that were not rapacious. We'll probably be back to see if they have fins that will fit this weirdo surfboard of ours, and see if we don't set a record for the most visits by a non-employee.

Decisions, decisions. My 'a ha' moment came when I thought of Force Five. This is a great surf shop. From flip flops to bathing suits, to sunglasses to "surf" clothes, Force Five has an extensive selection of some really great stuff and not marked up from their suggested retail prices. Brands include Roxy, Volcom, Billabong, and the likes; designer clothes it is not. I think they also sell surf boards and boogie boards, but don't hold me to that. Come off-season for sales, but even during summer, you can still walk away with some good stuff without breaking the bank.

This beach is within walking distance to the downtown district, but with the intense heat you might want to rent a car or take a Lyft/Uber.

Currently, Halley offers live training and fitness classes at various studios on Martha's Vineyard, but also can provide private and/or virtual sessions, spanning all sorts of wellness activities from fitness to meditation and reiki. Her calming presence and sense of gratitude can be felt instantly, which will put any of her students at easy. She is a gifted healer and nurturer, as well as a strong and tough trainer.
