Charming 100 year old home - 1 Block from Beach Drive

This century old home sits just one block from the historical Beach Drive - Alki Beach! We just finished renovating the kitchen in February 2020! Not only close to the beach but close to coffee shops, many restaurants, and a fun park with play structure and tennis courts. With a short drive or water taxi to downtown Seattle, this home is the perfect vacation stay for a family or 2 couples. No need for a car on this vacation if you want to explore the city by bike and by water. The West Seattle Water Taxi is 2.5 miles down the boardwalk. The main floor has a queen sized bed and full bath while the downstairs has a king bed, and a 3/4 bath with shower. There's also a single bed in a nook perfect for a child/young teen. Alki Beach is a very popular Seattle destination. *There is not designated parking for this home. It's first come, first serve, street parking.

Seattle alki stay

Lovely house very well stocked with everything u needed to enjoy your time at the beach. Parking can be a bit challenging on hot summer weekends but week days we’re not an issue. Only had a couple questions during our stay and when I texted I the host responded promptly. Thanks so much for everything

Wonderful little oasis, love of detail, from the interior, furniture, pictures and decoration, the kitchen equipment all the way to the eucalyptus-scented showergel and Iowa-Pine scented Dishsoap. Enjoyed our stay very much and would visit again any time.

Just amazing!

I loved this house so much. It had everything I needed to feel exceptionally at home (plus, the location--a block from Alki Beach--can't be beat). And, the hosts were very kind and exceptionally responsive. It is quite a wonderful spot!

Great stay!

Cute, well appointed and well provisioned with a great location, this is one of our favorite stays. Outstanding public transportation to downtown Seattle, up the street around West Seattle or just walk a block to the beach and bars/restaurants, this is a fabulous location. We had several questions over the months leading up to our stay and a couple while staying there and the response was immediate. We can't recommend this place enough!
