Wonderful Hosts

We had a great experience with wonderful hosts. We went for an early morning event, and to our surprise, they were up very early ready to serve us. We had expected to quietly slip out and were met with more than we could have expected. They went above and beyond in every regard. The property is interesting and historic, but comfortable. This is the go to place in Salisbury.

Absolutely wonderful

The Gillis Grier B and B was incredible. A stay here is an immersion in the Gilded Age. The 1885 house is extremely well preserved yet unobtrusively updated to provide maximum comfort and easy access to modern necessities like WiFi. I had to leave early in the morning for a race, but on our way home my wife could hardly stop raving about the breakfast she was served. Our hosts Rhonda and Luis made us feel at home, but better. They clearly enjoy being hosts, and we feel like we've made friends. This is the place to stay in Salisbury.

I stayed in the B&B for convenience of location and really enjoyed my stay! The owners look, Luis and Ronda were very personable and I enjoyed hearing stories about the home and its history. I was visiting my daughter who attends Salisbury university and I plan to stay at the B&B again on my next visit.

A step back in time! This bed-and-breakfast is a Victorian home in a historic preservation area in Salisbury Md close to historic churches and downtown. The home is well preserved and taken care of with Victorian decor and contents as well as modern amenities. The beautiful stained glass windows and lighting and crystal chandeliers are everywhere. The antique wood railings, trim and even the finely detailed parquet floors took me back to another time in history, to how the “well-heeled” families lived in the late 1800’s in a small town surrounded by farms. The location is very close to amenities and a short drive to Ocean City, Maryland as well as Assateague Island. Also a half hour drive to Windmill Creek Winery another restored 1800 home near Berlin which is a historic winery and a fun place to visit if you want a break from the boardwalk vibe. The host couple at Gillis B and B were very sweet and attentive to all details. Breakfast was delightful and also a great assortment of teas and coffee. The price was much more affordable than staying in a decent “chain hotel” in the area from Salisbury to Ocean City. I would recommend this to anyone that wants to have this kind of experience. Added note: the “square” winding staircase was like nothing I have ever seen!

The home is exactly as the picture shown louis and Veronica were great hosts. Only thing i would suggest is more on a food selection option for breakfast. There really is not one bad thing to say.
