Visions of a secluded island or a spot halfway around the world may come to mind but consider your honeymoon in a location much closer to home like Asheville NC.  Located in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Asheville is within 600 miles of half the population in the United States. Besides saving time and money, a vacation to Asheville becomes a location you can return to year after year to relive those memories that brought you together in the first place.

With 14 member inns, the Asheville Bed & Breakfast Association (ABBA) has a destination for everyone from historic properties to mountain lodges.  Romance comes standard at our b&bs as evidenced by our milestone guests who celebrate anniversaries, birthdays, and Valentine’ Day in style. Many properties boast jacuzzi tubs, old-fashioned clawfoot tubs, private sitting areas, fresh flowers, afternoon desserts, and other amenities along with Romance package upgrades like a dozen roses, chilled champagne, or chocolate truffles.

The best part of picking an ABBA inn would be the personal concierge service our innkeepers provide to help you make the most of your honeymoon stay.  With over 105 years of collective experience amongst us, we have the best advice about mountains, music, beer and everything in between. List your interests and desires to your innkeeper who can help curate your honeymoon.
