    What an amazing place to rest and relax away from the hustle and bustle. Private and serene. The hosts were amazing and the breakfast every morning was fantastic. We felt loved and pampered, yet were given ultimate privacy. Beautiful grounds and beautiful innkeepers. A "must" B & B to visit.

    We had a 'sister' party with eight sisters. We used all the bedrooms and slept very comfortably. The pillows, ironed sheets, soft blankets and clean smell put us all in dreamland. Marianne and Rosalba pampered and spoiled us especially with the wonderful breakfast we selected from the menu. This was a wonderful experience and we are coming back. There is so much to do there on a warm sunny day. If you are thinking about going there ...just do it. You will not be disappointed. CC


    Nice little get-away

    I shared a stay with my wife in the Asian room. This is the one with a fireplace in a single room. All others, especially peacock room, had separate sitting room. We enjoyed our stay and had the whole Victorian home to ourselves. The owner and staff couldn't be more hospitable. They were really sweet. You can tell that a lot of effort went into the complex. Some worked and some didn't. Only complaint I have is the pillows. I wished there were big usable pillows for sitting in the Asian room because besides the bed there are no sitting available. The big pillows would also give more of the old Chinese opium den feel and look. Would be very comfortable sitting around the fireplace. Overall, we loved our stay and would recommend it

    My experience at Jamul Haven was just amazing to say the least. We were greeted after we arrived by Marianne who gave us a tour of the old restored Victorian house along with the grounds and the places we were able to go while we stayed there. We stayed in the Peacock room which had both a sitting room, bedroom and its own shower and bathtub. What impressed me most about the house was that it had a lived in feel. It was as if you went back in time and were visiting an old relative's house. On our last day we had the chance to look at the other rooms and they were just as amazing. No detail has been overlooked when it came to furnishing and creating this place, and no picture can justify what you will see when you arrive. When it was time for breakfast we were treated to first a buffet of items such as cheese, granola, yogurt, pastries, bagels, and other breads, with four different spreads to choose from. (One of them was a pumpkin spread and it was delicious.) After seating ourselves we were given a menu. During my stay I tried the Dutch pancake with blueberries, and the homemade frittata; both of which were delectably delicious. (Jamul Haven has their own chicken house so the eggs are very fresh.) In the evening we had cookies waiting for us in the kitchen which were very tasty. Marianne and Bill are wonderful hosts and truly have a gift when it comes to creating the hospitable place. Needless to say we were sad to leave, and we had such a good time there we felt spoiled. I highly recommend this place for there is everything here you could enjoy with the good food, amazing rooms, and great hospitality

    We thought that Jamul Haven looked like a beautiful place to stay, but it went way beyond our expectations! The house and the grounds are a work of art. The painstaking restoration performed on this antique house are nothing short of amazing. Not even a creak in the antique wood floors! And what a homey feel with snacks (including milk & cookies) and refreshments available 24 hours a day. The room was beautiful and clean and the tile floor in the bathroom a work of art. Stunning! We were made to feel so welcome and comfortable. Then the breakfast.....a buffet and then ordering off a menu? The frittata was to die for, and prepared so quickly. We will definitely be back!! We HIGHLY recommend Jamul Haven to anyone looking to get away from it all and relax. We only wish we could have stayed longer!
