I love discovering small Inns, petite gems off the beaten track. Another suggestion from Pam Swartz, you know I love experts!

I popped in at The Hermosa Inn, in Paradise Valley for a brief stay and would return in a heartbeat. Warm, courteous welcoming staff, cozy, yet spacious rooms, huge bathtubs, and a gorgeous garden. I love ‘The Welcome’, it sets the stage for the visit.  I love the little amenities, lavender chocolates on my pillow, and a long forgotten touch…a brief newsletter outlining the upcoming temperatures, local events, a suggestion for lunch, a puzzle and a quote of the day. Someone here is making the extra effort to welcome a guest.

Unsurpassed beauty of this desert hideaway offers a wonderful escape, although it is minutes from golf, prestigious shopping, art and entertainment venues.
