This peacefulness makes for a good night's rest - you awaken energized and ready to start the adventures of the day. Upon arrival, the host Fred greeted me with a smile. Honestly, I felt the Zen-like aura radiating from him. He guided me around the facility and left me without any questions as I closed my door. Cleanliness is a key component of my choosing the stay at a B&B, hotel, etc. This 100% cleanliness rating is a must before I decide to return for another stay. Whispering Winds Retreat B&B is given a rating of 100% for cleanliness. My room was well-apportioned, comfortable, and quiet which played a key part of my restful sleep. The common areas were home-like and clean. The kitchen was stocked with amenities that allow for a good cup of coffee or a nice homemade meal. If I ever pass that way again and need a wonderful place to stay, I will choose Whispering Winds Retreat B&B.

I stayed in room 7 which is the pictured room and had a beautiful view of the ocean and the mountains. The bed was super comfy and I slept like a rock. It is a shared bathroom situation here which I'm not always keen on but it was never an issue, was easy. Door locks and a nice hot shower. The staff was very friendly and talked to the woman at the front desk for a bit and then across the street talked to her daughter at AJ's restaurant. I felt like I was part of the town for a minute there. There's a great restaurant across the street (AJ's), like about thirty feet away and Bunnell Street Art Center next to that. Will definitely come back.

I travel to Homer, AK occasionally for work and love staying at the Driftwood Inn. It reminds me…read moreof an old fashioned family run inn, with wonderful staff and service. The tiny fisherman's quarter rooms are perfect. The inn is on a cliff line right above the beach, so it has really easy access to the beach. The views are magnificent. You can see the beautiful ocean on the Kachemak Bay, snow covered mountains, a distant glacier, and volcano, eagles, and ravens. The inn is very close to tourist attractions, including the really nice visitor center, as well as the famous Homer Spit area. There's a lot of fantastic restaurants and cafe's really close, some walking distance. I've stayed at the Driftwood several times now and really love it. I love it so much, I took my family there recently and we had a wonderful time. Our daughters bunked in one of the tiny fisherman's quarter rooms, and they loved it. We rode horses on the beach right below the inn, and it was an incredible Alaska experience for our family, we will cherish always. The Homer Horse Adventures is on the beach right below the hotel, so within walking distance. We also spent a lot of time exploring the Homer Spit. Just a wonderful time. The Driftwood Inn was perfect and their staff are incredible, very friendly, attentive, and helpful. I highly recommend the Driftwood Inn. I will be back again for sure.

I honestly have never felt so relaxed in my life after staying here for 4 days. The massage was top notch, and the sauna was amazing, right on the cliff overlooking the water and eagles of Kachemak Bay. Even in the fog and rain, the setting was incredibly peaceful and lovely, and it the weather actually made it seem even more beautiful and relaxing in my opinion. I will never forget sitting in bed and watching thousands of shorebirds fly by over the course of our stay in early May, or the 5 eagles that flew right above my head as I soaked in the hot tub. It was wonderful to enjoy the beauty and wildness of the Homer Spit from the luxury of such relaxed and wonderful little boutique hotel.

The location is super quaint and an amazing view of the bay. Everyone who we encountered while coming and going was super friendly. As a guest of the Inn you have access to the hot tub. I appreciated how staff asked us to request hot tub times so everyone had the hot tub to themselves making it a more enjoyable experience. The hotel staff use texting as the primary way to communicate. This was nice - when we wanted extra towels we just sent a text.

Aside from that, the experience was good--no bed bugs (I checked thoroughly), the pool was clean, and the room was neat and tidy with no strange odors. The temperature of the room was kept cool, and I had no issues with loud neighbors. The bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom was spacious and spotless as well. I also appreciated the 24/7 tea, hot cocoa, and coffee bar. However, I wish they offered more, like a breakfast options.

Water pressure was nice and somewhat unexpected. A couple of the towels were stained, which is a bit of a turn off, even though you can see they're laundered. Breakfast is served nextdoor in an old restaurant. Typical hot & cold items for a hotel... waffles, eggs, bacon, cereal, yogurt and plenty of coffee!

We didn't really get to appreciate and enjoy them to the full extent since we arrived so late, went promptly to bed, and had to get up early in the morning. But based on the amenities and location, this is definitely one place I would return to if I were ever to find myself in Homer again. Check in was a little strange, being that you had to check in in a separate spot outside of town. But other than that, the entire check in process was smooth. The space itself was clean, conveniently located, and the bed was phenomenal! We enjoyed the jetted tub and the clear skies and beautiful views of the water. Walking distance from the harbor, several restaurants, and shops, this is the place to stay in Homer! Just beware, that if you stay here in the off-season, you are pretty much out on the spit by yourself with almost no amenities available. We ended up eating at McDonald's because it was the only thing open in Homer at 8 PM on a Wednesday night.

The property itself was well-kept. The lodges are right on the beach at end of Homer Spit, and there was some maintenance construction happening on two or three lodges while we were there--inside the apartment, it was completely silent, though. The radiant heat flooring was a nice touch, and it was great to have direct beach access through the back door. This place also has incredibly soft, fluffy bath towels--this is one place hotels often scrimp, so I am always appreciative of great towels. The shower was a bit tricky to figure out, but an employee answered the off-hours phone line and walked us through it.
