If Llamaste is available over the weekend you want to visit the Asheville area, BOOK IT! Pamela thinks of everything to make your stay relaxing and enjoyable. Pre-visit, she contacted me to offer reccomendations for our stay. When we arrived, her home was spotless and decorated in the most beautiful and eclectic way. You can tell she has put a lot of TLC into the athestic of the home. She was so friendly welcoming us and showing us around the house upon arrival. She even helped my boyfriend coordinate a surprise birthday cake for our arrival with a bottle of champagne (even if it's not your birthday you should ask about where you get an "Ashe-velvet cake", just delicious). My dog came along who happens to be very timid in new settings, but the dogs at Llamaste were very friendly and allowed her to do her own thing. Pamela finds a good balance between being a hands on host and giving you your space during your stay to relax and spend alone time. The room you stay in allows for plenty of privacy with a connecting bathroom. We essentially had the whole first floor and porch to ourselves during the stay. The yard surrounding the house is beautiful and as well kept as the interior of the home. We chose to spend our evenings in Asheville visiting breweries and such, getting an Uber from the location of the house was very easy and a short drive. Overall, the Llamaste was more of an experience than a simple room to stay in while you visit Asheville. You will not be disappointed. Thank you so much Pamela!
