We had a wonderful stay at the Garden Gate. The property itself is charming with a beautiful tropical courtyard complete with bananas fresh from the tree! The owners, Bill and Jaime are warm and accommodating. It is fun getting to know the other guests around the breakfast table. We hated to leave our cozy room and can't wait to go... more

I want to expand on my previous report to add some perspective to the problems we faced. Firstly on arrival at the Garden Studio there was a smell in the toilet as if it had been used recently and the bed sheets were creased. I mentioned this politely to the girl standing in for the absentee owners and she commented... more

We just returned from a wonderful vacation in Maui! We absolutely loved the Island and had one of the best vacations ever. This was also the first time we stayed in a bed & breakfast instead of a hotel. We loved every minute! The Garden Gate was such a great experience for us. First of all, it was so clean... more

My new wife and I stayed at the Garden Gate B&B at the recommendation of my sister who stayed there two years ago and we were not disappointed.

The Garden Gate is what we call "a disguised hotel". Upon entering on the premixes through a gate (The Garden Gate)... more

I stayed at the Garden Gate Bed and Breakfast in March 2008. It was a gorgeous place with lovely gardens and a nice breakfast provided. My room was a little small but I did have the smallest of all the rooms. The other rooms looked bigger. It was a short walk to the beach and a 20 min walk either... more

Positives: The Garden Gate Bed & Breakfast was a little less than what we had expected but overall was quite happy with our accommodation. When we first arrived we were shown to our room by Bill who informed us that we would be receiving an upgrade in a couple of days (as we were staying there a week), however this... more

In our opinion, staying in a B&B means having different expectations from a hotel. Expect at minimum a clean and safe room, a little something to eat in the morning, and maybe some interesting interactions with the locals. Anything more than that makes it exceptional, and each B&B reflects the quirks of its owner. Staying in a B&B can also... more
