![]() Luna Vista area. |
Driving out to California on a recent trip, we were guests of Kala (pronounced Calla is in Calla Lily) and her husband Frank at their "beyond Fabulous" Luna Vista Bed and Breakfast.
Located just about 20 miles Southeast of Sedona and just about 3 miles off the Interstate, this has to be one of the finest and most unusual places that we have been.
However, to get there you get off the pavement and drive about three miles around curvy hilly, rocky and treacherous gravel and dirt roads to make your arrival. But after arriving, it is worth the trip.After making the last turn you are aghast when you see this place.
It is like you are arrived at the Ponderosa! Kala and Frank were residents of the East Coast and after 9/11 they decided that it was time for a major move.

They purchased the property in Rimrock, remodeled, repaired, built on, put in a swimming pool, Jacuzzi and many more additions and finally opened their new B and B in February, 2004 and it has been an instant success ever since.
![]() Luna Vista. |
The moment that Kala opened the door to welcome us in, we KNEW that we were going in for a big treat and we were! She is alive, animated, professional, entertaining and a great hostess.
Frank ALWAYS has a smile on his face and is very excited about everything. Together they make a great team and we know that they will be in the bed and breakfast business for many years.
They can't help it if they were born straight! It happens in the best of families. Everyone is welcome at Luna Vista and we do mean everybody!
We stayed there for three days and didn't even want to go anywhere else. however one day we did drive over to Montezuma's Castle and on to Montezuma's Lake which was extremely interesting.

But the real enjoyment was taking advantage of the Luna Vista B and B and the many amenities it has to offer.
![]() Luna Vista Pool. |
It is located on 16 acres and you can take a long hike through the woods and river area. The flowers were blooming everywhere. The sights and aromas almost knocked us over. At night we saw more stars in the sky than we ever see here in the Midwest.
We stayed in the Don Diego (Zorro) suite. Our bathroom was 18 feet by 20 feet and included our own Jacuzzi. Our shower was 6 feet by 8 feet and included a steam room.
A double vanity, bidet and every kind of amenity that you would possibly want. Our linens were 400-threat count Egyptian cotton and of course they were ironed before putting them on the beds! Oh! Did we mention that they have heated towel racks in the bathroom?
![]() || Advertisement || CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION || Advertisement || CLICK HERE FOR MORE |
Each room came with a DVD/TF/VHS, CD player, etc. A bottle of wine is in every room for the guests. The grounds are fabulous. They are very pet-friendly and even have a dog run and a horse run, should you care to bring your horse.
Not into driving? Then use their helicopter pad and fly right in!
![]() Montazuma's Castle. |
They serve a full-course breakfast every day and on Sundays' a full brunch. And we are not talking a muffin and coffee, but a full sit-down breakfast with waffles, breakfast steak, eggs, potatoes, etc.
Nothing is left out. Guests have the full run of the house and property including an office where you can check your e-mails and work online if need be.
On our last night there, Kala and Frank hosted a party in our honor and invited several of their neighbors and area antiques dealers. They fixed enough food for an entire army.
Everyone was so interesting in their own way. The woman next door to them bakes fantastic desserts and another neighbor is a spiritual advisor and yet another creates beautiful "cactus" lamps and objects.

She presented us with one of her creations.
![]() Montazuma's Castle. |
The next time you really want to get away from everything and truly have a memorable experience, book yourself a week at the "beyond fabulous" Luna Vista. Their website is: lunavistabandb.com or call 800-611-4788.
They have been featured in many travel publications from coast to coast. To get to Rimrock either fly into Flagstaff or Phoenix, rent an auto and drive. That is, unless your already driving, then just drive on Interstate 17 and take the 293 Exit.
We stayed with them on a return trip from California and our "beyond fabulous" experiences continued while staying there.
We don't make many promises, but trust us on this one, we promise that you will have one of the finest and most enjoyable weeks of your life with Kala and Frank.
Always remember to have fun when traveling, meet new people and talk to everyone!
