4 reviews for Avalon Luxury Inn
Delightful group of people, very hospitable. Homemade cookies, local cheeses, generous pours of local wines.
Highly recommended.
Me and my girlfriend spent a weekend there and the family was out of town, at Disneyland actually, and in the meantime it was run by some snobby guy with an attitude.
Food was so-so, indoor hot tub didn't work properly and was running most of the night. Overall, it wasn't a good experience for the hefty price tag we payed.
Update:
The owner of Avalon, Hilary, has contacted me a couple of days ago, expressing sincere concern about our disappointing stay at her B&B back in April 2007. It is a good sign that she is taking reviews and opinions about her business serious, as every competent business owner should. I attribute the somewhat mediocre experience to her absence and I am sure that our experience would have been different if the family would not have been out of town during our visit.
I have to echo the two other posters in regards to the rooms and surroundings of the Avalon Bed & Breakfast. The room we stayed in was in impeccable condition, the picturesque surroundings and tranquility we got to enjoy on the patio were perfect, except for the above mentioned problems. That's the sole reason I can't give it 5 stars.
However, Hilary has since offered us a free night at her establishment, which is a nice way of trying to remedy our experience. It shows she truly does care about her guests and patrons and we might take her up on her offer.
The surroundings are lush and peaceful and the room was cozy and romantic. Perfect setting for our mini-honeymoon. We stayed in "Guenevere's Tower", where we were welcomed by a warm fireplace, chocolate and champagne. The room was so nice we almost decided to to hole up and hide in it all day, and the amenities were perfectly in character: books, toiletries, claw-foot tub, postcards to make your friends jealous....Breakfasts are included and are top notch, gourmet and delicious. At 5:00 p.m. wine and cheese are served, also a good time to meeting some of your fellow guests. Whether you mingle, or not you *will* meet Hilary and her son AJ, who are some of the most pleasant, wonderful innkeepers you'll ever meet (AJ is especially personable, and should have a long and excellent career ahead of him if he wants it.) Suggestions were given to us once we expressed our preferences and were spot on for both local wineries and eateries. One night Hilary's recommendation sent us to the Underwood Bistro, which was delicious and fun.
There were only 4 rooms, averaging $350 a night, but it's totally worth it for your getaway; anniversary, honeymoon, or therapeutic vacation. Our only regret was that we couldn't stay any longer. Thanks Hilary & AJ! Cheers!
This is one of those Sonoma B&B's that is consistently booked on the weekends so plan ahead for your shag, I meant stay. The breakfasts here are truly gourmet. I love the small details like the dessert wine and the tray of cookies left in your room. The hostess is super friendly and from SoCAL like moi.
Specialties
Avalon is a luxury property in a unique setting. We specialize in providing outrageous service in a homey atmosphere.
Things are blossoming all over the place at Avalon this month. We have a great Swing into Spring special, where you get your third night for half off - but we've already reduced the prices of the first two nights, too. You will save over $200 on your weekend getaway to the gorgeous Sonoma Wine Country.
And remember, with every stay at Avalon you always get a delicious, three course, gourmet breakfast made from scratch daily with all organic ingredients. Most guests tell us they had to skip lunch because the breakfast was so satisfying! In addition to that, every afternoon we offer specialty teas with irresistible goodies, not to mention evening wine and cheese, all complimentary.
We never charge for bottled water, parking or WiFi. In fact, we don't charge additional fees for anything at all. Staying at Avalon may be the best deal in town.
