Great Vacation in Alaska Home: Alaska Bed and Breakfast

Have a Fantastic Stay at an Alaska Bed and Breakfast





Does Alaska have bed and breakfasts? In the words of our famous govenor, Sarah Palin, ... "You Betcha"!

In fact, since I've lived in Alaska, I've seen just what a prominent role the Alaska bed and breakfast "scene" plays, each year, when it comes to Alaska vacation lodging options.

The reason?

I think it is because when one comes to Alaska, a different kind of experience is desired. You don't come to Alaska to set up camp in a low-end hotel room.

Why Stay at An Alaska Bed and Breakfast?



When it comes to choosing a local B and B, your choices will be plentiful. There are nice ones everywhere, here in Alaska.

Whether you plan to stay in Anchorage, Wasilla or Palmer... your choices will range from rustic to very elegant.

Meet and Get To Know Local Alaskans

Maybe I should say motivated Alaskans. A bed and breakfast owner in Alaska is "hands on" and more concerned that your stay is a pleasant one. Compare this to the low-end salaried desk clerk or someone who cleans room for an hourly wage. The difference will be obvious.

Additionally, I like that most Alaska bed and breakfast owners are a wealth of information on their particular part of Alaska. Rather than relying soley on a travel brochure, you might hear tips on great places to see, where to eat etc....and it'll be all based on personal experiences.

Costs!



Saving money isn't usually the motivating factor to staying at a Bed and Breakfast, but my experience is that the typical Alaska bed and breakfast is about the same or cheaper than a hotel room. Keep in mind, though, that Alaska hotels can be expensive...especially in the summer.

Believe me, I found this out when I first arrived in Anchorage. Talk about hotel room sticker shock!

Location Advantages



As mentioned earlier, Alaska B and Bs are located all over the place. It is easy to stay at one that is conveniently located near where your Alaska travel plans may take you.

Vacation Planning Purposes

Alaska, whether it be Anchorage, Wasilla, Palmer or elsewhere, has very active Convention and Visitors Bureaus.

Via these CVBs many Alaska bed and breakfast owners coordinate and work together with other complimenting businesses. So when it come to transportation or tour arrangements, most bed and breakfast owners are usually good at helping you.

They know who is doing what where and how to get there!

I saw this first hand when I used to drive for Alaskan Splendor (limousine and car service).

I picked up and transportated many guest, from the Alaska's Harvest Bed and Breakfast for example, and then took them to where they needed to go.

Sometimes it was to the airport, the nearby fishing charter, flightseeing operation or other Alaska adventure fun.
