    Tranquil gardens and perfect breakfasts

    June 09, 2013

    Astrid and Danny have expanded the gardens with lovely terraces and plantings so everyone can find a tranquil spot. Breakfasts are perfect - fresh fruit from the farmer's market, eggs from local chickens, and small sausages - leaving you energized. Astrid gives excellent advice about local activities and sights. We'll be back!

    Lovely B&B with a lovely innkeeper

    May 30, 2013

    My boyfriend and I stayed here for a 1 night in the Tempranillo room which was connected to a patio overlooking their beautiful garden. There were also hanging nectar feeders which attracted a good number of hummingbirds. Astrid was very personable and we felt welcomed into her beautiful home. She gave us a huge number of recommendations to include on our itinerary without us asking. Our room had a jacuzzi which we heavily utilized! She also included a mint bath salt which we used. The bed was super comfortable (I believe it was a Tempurapedic mattress). The breakfast was overall tasty. I felt that the baked egg dish was a little dry though. I would recommend this place to a friend.

    A lovely place to stay in Sonora

    May 15, 2013

    My wife and I had an incredible experience during our stay here. The rooms are immaculate and the service superb. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for the small mountain town experience. The Inn overlooks the charming town of Sonora and offers access to the downtown area within walking distance. Also be sure to take the time to walk the gardens surrounding the Inn. They are lovely and well maintained.

    Our best experience in Sonora!

    May 08, 2013

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Merlot Room. The walk-in shower with the large rain shower-head and hand held wand were great. It was obvious that a lot of thought went into every detail in the room. Their Garden is beautiful & we sat there with friends for wine before dinner. The innkeepers were delightful & breakfast was delicious both mornings.

    Thank you Barretta Gardens Inn for an amazing weekend away from the hustle and bustle of city life. My partner and I were in awe of the room, the landscaping, and the attention to detail Barretta Gardens Inn offers. What a great place to stay! We will most certainly be back.
