This was our third visit to Magnolia Springs B&B. A get away weekend from our home near Birmingham. Enjoyed our time at the Gulf Shores and took in a Mardis Gras parade in nearby Daphne. Our stay was as fabulous as we remembered! Cozy, warm comfortable room; fabulous bed; perfect amenities right down to the toilet paper and tissue! And, I truly believe the breakfasts are the best we've ever had at a B&B -- three magnificent courses cooked fresh! Thanks to Eric and David for once again making our visit memorable and worth it! We will be back!

August 22, 2012
My husband surprised me with a quick get-away from home at the Magnolia Springs B&B. It was our first time experiencing a B&B and definitely plan to do it again! The two hour drive to the B&B was fun for. We stopped at a few antique & pottery shops as we drove through Foley, AL. We even got to eat at the famous Lambert's, the only home of roll throwing. Then we drove passed the Inn to visit Fairhope, AL before check in. It was nice to spend the afternoon walking in and out of the little unique shops. Once we made it to the B&B, we continued to be amazed at the charm this trip without a doubt had provided. The house was absolutely stunning and full of old fashioned charm. Both Dave & Eric were fantastic hosts and quite entertaining with their stories about the history of the house as well as experiences they have had. I especially loved the very helpful notebook in our room that contained local restaurant menus since we were not familiar with the area. We ended up going right up the street to a seafood dining restaurant called Jessie's. The service and food were equally fantastic! On our next trip, we'll most likely take advantage of their package deals. I wish I would have had time to do the hot air balloon package! OMGosh that would have been amazing! But we'll be back! I have so many more things I'd like to do know that we've found this place!

This B&B is simply outstanding in all areas. David and Eric are attentive and helpful hosts who sincerely want their guests to be comfortable. This inn, built in 1897, has been lovingly restored. If you like history, gourmet breakfasts, and a peaceful setting, this is the place for you. My husband travels frequently for his job and was tired of hotels, especially the noisy, crowded hotels that cater to tourists along the beach. If you are looking to stay anywhere remotely near Destin, Pensacola, Fort Walton Beach, or Gulf Shores and want to avoid traffic jams and long lines at restaurants please consider this magnificent inn.

5 out of 5Wonderful unexpected surprise!
July 22, 2012
My wife recently planned to attend a committee meeting in Magnolia Springs, AL, and asked if our grandson and I would like to accompany her. We checked for motels in Magnolia Springs and discovered the Magnolia Springs Bed and Breakfast owned and operated by David and Eric. From arrival to departure this was a five-star experience. When we drove up, my wife commented "This is what a bed and breakfast should look like." David met us, explained the layout of the house and provided access to the building's history, made us feel like family, and then took our bag to our room. That evening we took our grandson to the Gulf Shores beach about a half hour away. When we returned, we found chocolates on our pillows and the linens turned down. Our hosts were perfectionists and attentive to our every need. The three-course breakfast the next morning was a wonderful unexpected surprise. If you're headed to the beach and don't mind a short drive from Magnolia Springs (just outside Foley) or if you're looking for a relaxing vacation spot where you'll be pampered by the hosts, this overnight stay would be ideal. The Magnolia Springs Bed Breakfast should appear on a list of Alabama's top lodging experiences.
5 out of 5Awesome Getaway!!!
May 29, 2012
David and Eric went above and beyond the call of duty to make our stay at Magnolia Springs B&B the perfect getaway that we needed. Delicious breakfasts, superb recommendations for dinner, attention to the tiniest details and the most comfortable and well appointed rooms. Our weekend was the perfect getaway that we so needed. Definitely at the top of our all time favorite list.
5 out of 5Everything it was said to be and more. A delightful stay!

Beautiful house, fantastic breakfast. David and Eric couldn't have been nicer or more helpful.
4.6 out of 5A place to make a memory
May 07, 2012
My husband and I are still talking about what a wonderful time we had at this bed-and-breakfast in charming Magnolia Springs. The term “bed-and-breakfast” truly doesn’t do it justice, because it was more like coming home to reconnect and make another special memory. We enjoyed the comfortable room, great healthful breakfast, meeting new friends, and discovering the history of this architectural gem and the surrounding area. Coastal Alabama is a great destination vacation and we recommend this property and these hosts.
