Alaska Lodging
Alaskan hospitality is some of the finest in the world. Everywhere
you plan on staying during your visit to the 49th state will, more
often than not, have a smiling face waiting to greet you. The accommodations
whether in a city or remote are very respectable. If you feel you
will need to book time in an igloo, you are clearly mistaken. Alaska
accommodates over 1 million visitors annually.
If you choose to stay in a bed and breakfast, you are choosing a truly
unique experience. Whether you just want privacy or choose to interact
with the proprietors, it is a very rewarding experience. If you have
never stayed in a bed and breakfast, it is a nice change from a hotel
and a nice escape from the crowds. Depending on the area, you are
likely to be surprised, in a good way, at the cost of a bed and breakfast
compared to a hotel or resort.
For those who truly want to witness a unique Alaska experience should
book their vacation at one of the many wilderness lodges scattered
throughout Alaska. Although be forewarned... a hefty price tag can
come with one of these vacation packages especially the more remote
the lodge is. Celebrities such as comedian Jim Carey, former president
Jimmy Carter, and former football great Larry Csonka are known to
frequent these lodges to either escape from the limelight or to take
advantage of the serene wilderness surroundings while wetting a fishing
line. Regardless of the reasons, anyone who chooses this type of backwoods
adventure will return with an entirely new respect for mother nature.
You will cry if you forget your camera!
The largely traveled areas like Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, and
Valdez have numerous hotels and resorts as well as bed and breakfasts.
During the summer months, the big resorts and hotels fill up fast.
If you insist on staying in a hotel, it is highly recommended that
you book early.
Enjoy your stay! |
