Such a unique, charming B&B. The owner of the property Debbie was accommodating, friendly, funny and loved to share stories. I stayed in the Geronimo room which had its own on suite bathroom. I hadn't slept that well in a long time. I think it was the quiet? Debbie brought a tray of fresh fruit, coffee, and oj to the room in the morning. Downstairs, she cooked an amazing breakfast with fresh eggs from her chickens, bacon, sausage, potatoes, toast/ English muffin and danish. I didn't need to eat the rest of the day. I absolutely loved the property's 2 dogs, 3 cats, and pickle the parrot. It was nice to share stories with fellow travelers. I give the stay a 5 for the hospitality, charm, breakfast, and animals. If you are looking for modern/polished/sterile accommodations this is not the place for you. I wish I had planned a longer stay. read more

I stumbled upon this place via Priceline and it ended up being the cutest place I've ever stayed. Debs and Bob, the hosts, are so friendly and personable. Just off the main drag in Alamogordo, the view of the Sacramento Mountains is unbeatable. Debs made sure we had anything and everything we needed including a custom, homemade breakfast. If you love authentic experiences and lovely people, this is the place. read more

What a truly amazing place! This is a private residence that has been turned into a B & B. I got a little confused (thought I was lost!) when the directions took me into a residential neighborhood, but that's where you are going if you stay here (and you should!). Debbie is an absolutely wonderful hostess. I had the place to myself for the night. She asked me when I wanted breakfast. The truth is, I was still operating on Eastern time and was waking up around 5:00-5:30 each morning. I told her this, but I also said I did not expect to have breakfast at that time. She assured me it was not a problem! I came down around 5:30 and had some lovely green tea. Breakfast - which we had discussed a bit the night before - started with slices of watermelon in a sundae glass topped off with whipped cream! It was a watermelon sundae! So delicious. More food followed including eggs, bacon, and toast along with hash browns. The food was amazing, and I had a ton of it. I could not eat it all. Luckily, my next stop was at a place where I would have a kitchen. Debbie offered to bag it all up for me so I could eat it later, and it worked out perfectly. The property has absolutely gorgeous views of the mountains and Debbie has a some animals out back that you can go see including chickens, goats, and a miniature horse. It really is a lovely place. You have to be 21+ to stay here. Out by the pool - which is indoors - there is a selection of wine and beer. You help yourself and leave behind whatever amount you think is reasonable. There are also candy dishes in the room and throughout the house filled with delicious chocolates! Snacks are everywhere. If you are hungry you will be able to find something. It's 15-20 minutes to White Sands. Easy drive. I would come back here in a heartbeat. Thank you Debbie for such a wonderful stay. read more

They have been in business for over 10 years. The amenities include an indoor pool, exercise room, pool table and great ambiance. There are miniature goats, cats and dogs, a miniature pony. Bob and Debbie are very welcoming. Bob is an outstanding chef - we don't regard him as a cook. He is definitely a chef. We have never had such a breakfast: a slab of ham covered with a sauce, piping hot; fluffy scrambled eggs, home fries - real ones, toast/English muffin, homemade strawberry jam, and, are you ready? a slice of lemon meringue pie that was sooo good, light, lemony, with a crust that delicately wrapped around it. We were in a room on the second floor which had a tiny balcony, perfect for the juice and fruit delivered to your room in the morning. The room itself was small, but there was a desk for the computer. There wasn't enough room for a easy chair. read more

I can't even wait until we leave to write a wonderful review for Tavares inn. It is christmas morning, and along w/our wake up tray of coffee, juice, and fruit cups w/whipped cream, our hosts included a merry christmas present. We haven't opened yet! The kindness & hospitality are beyond any expectations. And the breakfast! You won't have to eat again all day. Homemade potatoes, perfect eggs, toast, 1/2 a ham steak and then!!! Tiramisu for dessert. The rooms are cozy. The house lovely. Stay here for a fun experience. read more

We were looking for a nice bed and breakfast to celebrate our 29th Wedding Anniversary and we could not have found a better place. A beautiful Hacienda style home were you could relax and enjoy the quiet country with a view of the Mountains. Debbie was an outstanding host, from a wake up call with a little pre-breakfast coffee and fruit to a bigger serving of my husband's favorites, bacon and eggs and a nice side surprise. On top of that, I love that Debbie was so accommodating to my diet. Being a Vegan, I don't really like to put people out so I usually just pick off what I can eat but she accomodated nicely with a bigger breakfast than I expected with items I could eat. (By the way those potatoes were melt in your mouth delicious) Customer service at it's finest. The indoor pool was a nice touch to end our stay. Wish we could have had one more night. I highly recommend staying here if you are looking for a quite place to relax. I hope to celebrate another anniversary here in the future. Note: Adults only read more

We could not have chosen a better place to spend our time in Alamogordo. Bob and Debbie are incredibly interesting and gracious hosts who helped us plan our stay in the area, and they have built a beautiful home with all the comforts you could ask for. We enjoyed spending time talking with Bob and Debbie as much as we enjoyed our bedroom, breakfast, and the beautiful sites in the area. Come hungry and leave happy! read more

What a delightful place to stay!! We were greeted outside the front door by Debbie who showed us around and made of feel very welcome and comfortable. We stayed in the Santa Fe room which has a small balcony. It was so nice and peaceful to sit on the balcony and enjoy the view of the Sacramento Mountains while we sipped coffee that arrived on a tray at our door at the requested wakeup time. When we came down to the kitchen Bob cooked us a delicious breakfast. After breakfast we walked the grounds and enjoyed watching the chickens, goats, and cats playing. The only bad thing I have to say (and the only reason I didn't give 5 stars) is that the hot water in the shower did not seem to work and I had to take a cold shower. I was a little nervous at first of the idea of staying in someone's home but Debbie and Bob were so friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere and views were so calming and peaceful that I can't wait to go back!! read more
