The breakfast spread was phenomenal and Shami made us fresh coffees every morning. There was an excellent variety of charcuterie meats and cheese, breads and spreads, and yogurt. We stayed in the San Fran room and it was so cozy and private. The kitchenette was well stocked as well and the shower was fabulous.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Geyser Lookout B&B and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. From the moment we arrived, the owners made us feel so welcome. They live on site and are both very friendly, helpful, and clearly work very hard to ensure every guest has an excellent stay. Our room was wonderful, with a very large bathroom that felt very spacious. One of the highlights was having our own deck overlooking one of the active geysers at a distance. The breakfast was phenomenal and the best we’ve ever had. The selection was more like what you would expect in one of the finest hotels, with fresh fruits, salmon, breads, spreads, and so much more. Everything was beautifully presented, fresh, and incredibly generous. This is a special place with exceptional hosts, beautiful rooms, and an outstanding breakfast. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend it.

The hosts, Dave and Shami, are extremely friendly and welcoming people. The breakfast they provided was "European" style with the works (ie) musli, yohgurt, toast, spreads, meat and cheese platter, etc. If you enjoy meeting new people and having breakfast with them then this is the place for you. It was an interesting experience we will never forget.
