Bravo has released the trailer for Summer House spinoff Martha’s Vineyard.
According to a PEOPLE exclusive, the new series moves the action from The Hamptons in New York to Martha’s Vineyard near Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and is set to feature an all-black cast.
“Martha’s Vineyard is a location with a long history of Black vacationers, who have flocked to the island south of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, for more than 100 years,” reads the People exclusive, with Bravo indicating “it was one of the first beach destinations where African Americans could vacation and purchase property.”
The area is now “a favorite escape for the rich, famous and politically connected,” according to the release and the series will feature its “natural beauty with pristine beaches, romantic sailboats, colorful gingerbread cottages and cultural identity.”

Bravo’s Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard cast

Here is the official release for the new series, as per PEOPLE:
Fresh off their summer wedding, Jasmine (New York) and Silas (New York) Cooper have invited a group of friends — some old and some new — to vacation with them in Martha’s Vineyard and are now trying to figure things out in a house full of hot, successful urban professionals.
Amir Lancaster (Austin), new to Martha’s Vineyard and looking to learn about its Black history and connect to his roots, falls hard for a housemate.
Jordan Emanuel (New York) has been friends with Jasmine since their Playboy Bunny days and still loves to have a good time with her—maybe too good of a time for Silas’ tastes.
Preston Mitchum (Washington, DC), a Black queer activist who likes to speak his mind about a variety of things, is excited to spend time with his fraternity brother Silas and the group.
Fashionista Bria Fleming (Germany) is in a new relationship despite being surrounded by eligible men, but when she brings a different kind of houseguest to the rental, her friendships are sorely tested.
Alex Tyree (New York), who lives a life of intention without drinking and tries to persuade his friends to do the same, is juggling the advances of a housemate.
Quintessential party girl Shanice Henderson (Phoenix) is ready to turn-up this summer, but when she finds out someone in the house is spreading rumors about her past, things go left.
Jason Lyke (New York) is the counselor for the group but often finds himself at the center of the drama.
Discovering Martha’s Vineyard for the first time, Summer Marie Thomas (Los Angeles) intends to have the best possible time while getting her flirt on.
Nicholas “Nick” Arrington (New York), a self-proclaimed style savant who has an outfit ready for every outing, competes with Amir for a housemate’s affection.
Mariah Torres met Jasmine in college and is also close with several members of the group. She’s looking forward to spending the summer with her friends, but things become heated in the house after an argument gets out of hand.
Martha’s Vineyard is technically the second Summer House spinoff following Winter House’s debut back in October 2021. That series has just wrapped filming on Season 3 and will return later this year.
Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard premieres Sunday, May 7th at 9|8c on Bravo after the return of The Real Housewives of Atlanta.
