So what is a B & B or "bed and breakfast"?
A B&B or bed and breakfast, is a (usually) small establishment offering lodging and breakfast but not other meals to travelers. As simple as that sounds, the variety of what is actually available is nothing short of astounding.

3 nights in a State Room with estate view
Bottle of wine in room upon arrival
Gourmet breakfast for two each morning
3-course gourmet dinner for two on one evening of your choice, served at the award-winning Sherwood's Landing restaurant
$100 spa credits, one per person

This is a LOT more than a place to sleep and eat breakfast! Look at the place...it is gorgeous! Who would not want to stay at this AAA, Four-diamond award inn, just a short drive from Washington, DC? You can get a fast review of what those ratings really mean here.
This 3-night package for 2 is available via Luxury Link and has a "Buy Now" price of $1,149. Purchase this (or hundreds of other available trips), using Luxury Link's "Buy Now" option and they also give you 1000 Bonus Miles!
So while B&Bs do frequently offer a lot more than just a bed to sleep in and breakfast, what you get for your accommodation dollars is a unique experience...ala carte or all-inclusive package selections, meal options, room or suite options, and as an added bonus - innkeepers who are knowledgeable about your chosen vacation destination. B&B owners actually live and operate this business here so take advantage of their insider's tips on local attractions and the best way to get around the local area.
I personally do a look for B&B accommodations first whenever I am planning a trip. Franchise hotels are great for overnight or quick business travel, but when I want to relax and enjoy time spent in a new area, I go bed and breakfast every time. In 35 years of traveling, I have not been disappointed and have also picked up quite a few interior and exterior design ideas...

One of the hardest things to do when planning a vacation is to decide where to go and what to do.
For some, getting stuck in a vacation rut also seems to be a problem. "We went there before and had an OK time so we'll just go there again." Don't let yourself get stuck in that rut.
Whether you are taking the vacation of a lifetime or planning a trip for next year, web sites like Luxury Link provide a whole world of exciting opportunities for luxury travel with sometimes nearly unbelievable savings.
