Harbor View Hotel Hosts An Easter Celebration For All Ages

The Vineyard's favorite island hopper, the Easter Bunny is slated to return to Harbor View Hotel as the guest of honor at a fun-filled celebration that's become an Edgartown Easter tradition. Harbor View's famous Sunday brunch and an Easter egg hunt on Lighthouse Beach will be part of the March 31 festivities.

Water Street, the hotel's signature restaurant, will open its doors at 10 a.m. for a special holiday brunch created by Executive Chef Shaun Brian Sells. On the menu will be Easter favorites - from roasted leg of spring lamb to truffled scrambled eggs, along with traditional brunch fare and a raw bar showcasing New England's freshest seafood. Brunch is priced at $50 per adult, $25 for those ages 3-12, and free for children under 3.

Starting at 10:30 a.m., families and friends can gather on the nearby Lighthouse Beach, where Harbor View Hotel and the famed Easter Bunny will host an Easter egg hunt. All activities are open to islanders and hotel guests alike. Room rates at Harbor View start at $125 per night and visitors seeking a last-minute spring retreat can enjoy a third night for free when booking two consecutive nights through March 31.
