What Makes a Stay at a
Temecula Bed and Breakfast So Special?

What’s so special about a Temecula bed and breakfast? Where to begin?! Sure you can go to a nice hotel, motel, resort or inn – and there are some great ones to choose from in the Temecula Valley – but if you are looking for something warm and cozy, a true home away from home, then you can’t beat a stay at a Temecula B&B. But before looking over the ample selection waiting to host you during your stay in one of Southern California’s most beautiful regions, let’s find out where these homey abodes get their unique atmosphere, because that special feeling is wrought from a long and fascinating history of hospitality.

A bed and breakfast, typically more commonly known as a B&B, is usually a private home or establishment that provides shelter to travelers. Unlike hotels or motels, B&Bs can be found on farms or in family homes, condominiums, townhouses – even houseboats!

In the past it was common that guests were expected to share bathrooms, but these days most travelers prefer private, en suite, bathrooms and the market has been quick to respond.

Breakfast is normally included in the price of the stay – hence the name – so you can head to a B&B expecting not only a warm bed, but also a homemade meal in the morning.

Bed and breakfasts have been around as long as there have been weary travelers to fill their beds and, for much of history, it was more common to lodge in private dwellings than to search out the local inn.
Another interesting forerunner to the modern B&B was the widespread habit of staying with social peers; before the 19th century informal arrangements emerged wherein social rank dictated accommodations, for example, a traveling physician might stay the night at the home of the local doctor or pharmacist.

Today, many old properties have found new life as guesthouses filled with antique furnishings and quaint knick knacks that charm travelers with their historical character or simply with their creative flair.

Throughout the United States, the unique features associated with B&Bs are appreciated for their charm and allure. Often the building will have historical significance, or perhaps a celebrity or even a former president will have slept in one of the rooms. One thing is for sure – though friendly, personal attention is at the heart of a good B&B’s success, the main attraction is often the whimsical, eccentric or opulent quality of owner’s tastes reflected in the individually decorated rooms.

And of course the home-cooked breakfast at the start of the day is always a plus! However, in Temecula bed and breakfasts have some extra points above and beyond the norm, so check out the picks below for the best places to rest your head and wake up to the fabulous Temecula panorama:
