Super clean and very close to the beach. Janet is a terrific host - very quick to respond and even met us at the house at check in to show us how everything works and answer our questions. Great location and short walk to the free shuttle to the water taxi to Seattle. Would definitely stay here again!

Cutest little bungalow in a fun neighborhood. We walked to the beach, ate mission style burritos at Chupacabra and played at the arcade. Janet was so incredibly kind and communicative. The Alki House will become my West Side go-to

Cute and cozy

Janet is a superb host who has thought of literally everything you could need. There is an excellent Restraunt right across the street and many more just a block away. Great location for taking a water ferry into Seattle so you don’t need to hassle with the drive or parking. I would love to stay there again.

Short stay to visit family

I loved the Alki beach house. It is the perfect place for a few people. It is small, but that was perfect for me. It was clean, cozy and relaxing. I loved coming back to the house after a day of visiting my loved ones. It was great to have my own space. I took many walks along Alki beach. I even saw an orca in the distance. Alki beach is a beautiful spot. I would stay again!

The biggest surprise about the property was how well stocked it was! Every kitchen appliance. Even a yoga mat. As a bonus it was festive for Christmas, with lights and a wreath on the door. Warm and cozy. Super location.

Cute vintage Beach House

Cute vintage house located a short walk from the beach and restaurants. Host was friendly and informative. The only thing I would note is the size of the bathroom. The bathroom and shower are very narrow. If anyone in your party has mobility issues, this won't work for you. Otherwise, a really great place to stay!

Perfect getaway!

This house was perfect for my girls weekend! The couch pulled out as a bed so we each had our own sleeping area. Little outside spot was ideal for soaking in the sun and watching passers by. Just a half block from the main drag and minutes to all the restaurants and bars. We will be back!

Exquisite

What a lovely little beach getaway! The house was superbly appointed, immaculately clean and cozy to boot. The location can’t be beat, just a block from the beach and restaurants. Though tiny, it served as a perfect gathering spot for dinner and game night with friends. The attention to details was much appreciated, including new salt and pepper, fresh and plentiful linens and even a tiny makeup remover towel in the bathroom. Plenty of dish ware,utensils and glassware. We could not have picked a better spot. Janet was an excellent host and it is obvious that she cares and respects her property. I will definitely consider booking here again in the future.

Great location and a lovely little house.

Originally we wanted to spend the last night or two of our National Parks trip in downtown Seattle, but the lodging costs were outrageous, so I expanded the search and found this little gem in West Seattle, just off Alki Beach. Clean, comfortable, and well-stocked. The living area and bedroom were larger than I expected, although I will say that the bathroom was tight (a tall person would find it hard to get around). But that was the only minor drawback. We enjoyed the little patio space. The location is perfect. Very short walk to the beach and the local restaurants. There is a bus that runs around the area, including to the water taxi that provide access to downtown Seattle, be we enjoyed the walk along the shore (about 2.5 miles from the house to the ferry pier and just a little farther to Salty’s (seafood restaurant with good food and nice views of the Seattle skyline). Janet was great to work with. She met us at the house to show us around and answer any questions. Check-in and check-out were a breeze. I would definitely stay here in the future.

Amazing Rental Property

Went on a two week trip to the PNW. West Seattle was our first stop And we stayed at the Alki BeachHouse for our first two nights. Originally, we were going to stay three nights, but then we decided we wanted to make an extra stop on our trip so we cut it back to two. There was no hassle. Janet gave us a full refund for that extra night and actually now I wouldn’t have minded staying another extra night because it was so cool there. We could not have found a better place to stay. It is the cutest cleanest place and so close to the beach. If I were to return back to Seattle, I would definitely stay here. It has a wonderful little patio area that we sat out on the two nights we stayed. We received so many compliments from people walking by about how pretty the property was. So many extra amenities that we didn’t even use like things for the beach, including beach chairs; a log in the fireplace, which we also did not use. The location is great. We took the water taxi over to downtown Seattle and the free bus to get to the water taxi. Everything is so easy. West Seattle Beach Was fun and safe feeling. We saw a cool otter and the fires in the large fire pits along the beach that evening were really cool too. Not to mention great food! This is a gem of a place to stay and the price was very reasonable for what you get.
