Imagine the perfect blend of award-winning eco-conscious design and luxurious beauty. Imagine a short walk from your Buena Vista, Colorado lodging to a virtually private 2-mile stretch of the Arkansas River.

Now imagine that those same friends will cook you a delicious "weekend" breakfast every morning and that your accommodations will be one of only two extra-special suites.

Imagine that both owners are experienced and well-trained massage therapists who will massage you in your suite, on your own private deck, or in front of the cozy fireplace in the Great Room.

Does this sound like the perfect vacation hideaway?

The Sunset Suite is a 3-room suite, which is like having a private apartment. This suite features a private entrance, separate reading lounge, private bathroom with a deep soaking tub, a pillow-top Queen bed with a log headboard, an entertainment area with satellite TV, CD player and more, plus a futon for extra sleeping or lounging space, and a huge deck facing the Collegiate Peaks.

If you prefer sunrises, ask for the Sunrise Suite. It’s a “Master Suite” with a huge soaking tub, leather sofa and a spectacular picture-window view of Mt. Princeton. Sunrise has a huge private deck, a futon for relaxing or extra sleeping space, and satellite TV in an entertainment center. Sunrise has so much space that you can have 2 massage tables in the suite for a wonderful couples massage.

Massage? Yes, both of your friends are professional massage therapists with over 15 years experienceand are available for a relaxing, therapeutic massage in your room, on your deck, or in front of the fireplace.

Does this all sound too good to be true? Well it isn’t. It’s all here for you at Las Manos Bed and Breakfast in Buena Vista.

We’re surrounded by forest, but we’re only 4 miles from town and have easy access to fishing, hiking, rafting,kayaking, and climbing 14ers. If you haven't been here for a few years, you'll be pleasantly surprised with several new restaurants that opened in 2009 and have become dining spots that we can recommend with confidence. Try The Asian Palate and The Eddyline for excellent food and service.

We have a fire-ring for sitting around and roasting marshmallows and s’mores, and a horseshoe pit for old-fashioned fun. We have a new fireplace insert that has become a big attraction in the evenings in the Kiva greatroom.

We’ll help make arrangements for all of your area activities and can prepare a trail/river lunch for you.

We have a new addition to our family, Sasha, a Maine Coon cat. If you are allergic to cats, choose the Sunset Suite..He can't go in there at all.

	Las Manos is more than a hotel, more than just lodging it’s the perfect country Inn.
