Alaska Sundance Retreat Bed & Breakfast — Hotel in Alaska

After looking at the accommodations and prices in downtown Anchorage, we found this amazing B&B. All I can say is do yourself a favor and make the short drive out of Downtown Anchorage to this amazing place. The location is fantastic and the house itself is simply stunning with polished hardwood floors, gorgeous decor, floor to ceiling windows, beautiful hanging flower baskets and breathtaking views with expansive balconies where you can take it all in. It's located near Flattop Hiking Trails in Chugach State Park which is a must do (check out the 5 star Tripadvisor reviews). ||||We stayed in the Forget Me Not room for two amazing nights. Jacuzzi soaking tub with wrap around windows to view the wildlife, a steam shower, and luxury bedding (you are NOT going to get that in a downtown hotel room!). We felt sooo pampered. Our in-laws joined us for one night and stayed in the downstairs apartment, which has everything you could need for a longer stay: comfortable and spacious living room, kitchen, luxurious king bed, steam shower, and lots of darkness at night - a particular luxury during the summer months!||||Each morning we descended the stairs to a breakfast served in the expansive wood polished dining area overlooking the organic garden the host and fabulous chef, Rich, maintains for his home cooked breakfasts. Farm fresh scrambled eggs with organic herbs, local reindeer sausage and bacon, homemade banana walnut muffins (absolutely the best I've every had, Mel!), bagels and raisin bread, homemade jams and fresh fruit (including cherries!) Thank you, Rich! Your stories of growing up in Alaska during our wine tasting chats, tips on local restaurants and overall kindness and hospitality made our trip unforgettable.||||Jim and Mel, it was so wonderful to meet both of you. Your home is a luxurious sanctuary in Alaska and one we will return to for a longer...

One of the nicest B & Bs we've ever stayed in. Located about 20 minutes south of the airport in a nice quiet neighborhood. ||We were warmly welcomed by the owners Jim, his wife Mel and Rich their manager for the property. They gave us valuable suggestions on things to see and do as it was our first trip to Alaska.||We were invited to join them for beers and wine that evening and had a nice chat getting to know them. We felt like we were staying with close friends or relatives. That evening they introduced us to some of the local wildlife living nearby. We saw bald eagles and a moose walking by the road out front. Amazing!||The breakfast prepared by Rich was an amazing spread of bacon,eggs ( made any which way you like ) , sausages, fruit, toast, cereal, pan cakes ,juices , teas and coffee ( Sorry if l left something out. ) It's a great way to start the day.|||The room was plushly furnished and so was the bathroom. The bed was very comfortable and we slept very well.||We enjoyed our stay very much and would to come back again. Definitely way better than staying in a hotel. Highly...

We chose to stay at this B&B on the last day of our Alaska vacation. We found it recommended in the Moon Guide which was our go-to source for the trip. Great choice! ||||The owners have turned part of the house into a B&B, and they have done a wonderful job of it. The location itself is up in the hills on the south side of the city and there are good views from our room (Forget Me Not). I was told we'd get very good views on a clear day if we drove up the road 15 minutes to Flattop mountain, and I regret not doing that. ||||The Forget Me Not room was well furnished, and had a futon that we used as an extra bed (we were three of us). Great shower with a steam option that I did not try, but all the extra jets were good enough. We were served a delicious full breakfast and they made no fuss about our late wake up hour. The previous evening, Jim (the owner) got us a dinner reservation at the busy Southside Bistro on a Friday evening. ||Amiable hosts, cute dogs and good help from Bobby all the way. made this a very...
