This was a great find. It was clean, in a perfect location and had all the amenities. We could park in the reserved spot (which was critical to have) and walk everywhere. It was wonderful to wake up every morning to coffee on the roof deck and watch the ferries...same goes for the nightcap and the sunsets. The owners were pleasant and easy to work with and left detailed, helpful information. It is a block off the beach and next to a park so if you have little ones...even better. Bring your racquets too if you love tennis. There is something for everyone in Alki. The only drawback was the noise from both the park and the cars cruising the strip at night. It is a beach town! I might be a bit of a super safety Mom but I did wish for an alarm and a locking deadbolt upon leaving. That said, we didn't have any problems and I would stay here again. This is a wonderful rental!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

My entire family came for a vacation and to visit my sister who lives in West Seattle. The house was PERFECT!! All 6 of us adults, my 4 year old son and 1 year old niece all fit very comfortably. The house is just a block from the beach in a great neighborhood. The park across the street was great and the kids really loved it. Karen was wonderful and very helpful. The house is beautiful and was very clean. We had everything we needed. They're were beach toys, baby gates, a fully equipped kitchen, games, BBQ, and much much more! The rooftop deck was amazing with a great view of the ocean. I highly recommend this house. You'll never want to leave! Thank you so much Karen. Because of your house my family was able to spend quality time together and have a wonderful vacation. It was absolutely priceless and we will definitely be back!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, families with teenagers.

This is a lovely home and was great for our family. We were in Seattle for Mom's 100th Birthday celebration. The location was good for our site seeing trips.. The view from the 4th floor deck was spectacular we were able to see Mt. Baker one clear day. The playground was great for our 5 yr. old grandson and the short walk to the beach to some great eateries.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, families with teenagers.

The house was beautiful, spacious and full of amenities. The location was just a short block from Alki Beach and the restaurants/bars there. Easy access into Seattle via the West Seattle Bridge or water taxi. Great place to use as a home base or just to hang out and relax. The owners are a pleasure to deal with too.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, families with young children, age 55+, families with teenagers.
Owner response: Thank you so much for your great review! Glad you enjoyed your stay in our beautiful city and that our home worked so well for you. Thanks again. Ken and Karen Leu

We had a wonderful springbreak at your lovely townhouse. The view from the deck was so gorgeous and relaxing. The beds were super comfortable and we had everything we needed to cook some great Northwest seafood. The kids loved being able to walk a block to the beach. My husband and son also enjoyed having tennis courts across the street. A tip to others, we love breakfast at the Luna Park Cafe on Avalon Way. We can't wait to come back again soon!

Owner response: So glad you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to seeing you again. Thank you so much!

Karen and Ken - We had a wonderful few days at your home near Alki. We were able to celebrate a 1st, 30th, and 61st birthday - three generations! Your setting and layout worked beautifully for our family to enjoy games, puzzles, and meals together, but also afforded space for people to stretch out, relax and read. The beach and the park are so close and offer so many activities. We would definitely plan to stay with you again!Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children, adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers.
Owner response: Thank you for your great review of our home. It's great to hear the house work so well and hope to hear from you again on your next visit to Seattle. Ken and Karen

We LOVED the house and location, which is right in the heart of Alki Beach. We thoroughly enjoyed the rooftop deck, and my husband cooked some memorable Pacific Northwest dinners up there. But more remarkable was the scenery. One night we were awestruck by the view up there--the Sound, the mountains, the old growth forest behind us, the city lights, the brightly lit ferries passing in the night, and a big full moon, which we later found out was a Harvest moon during the Autumnal Equinox. I kept saying, "this place is magical!" All those elements are a rare combination. Plus the house was wonderful--very comfortable and beautifully decorated with everything we needed. Just a good vibe place and neighborhood all around. We would rent here again in a heartbeat.Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with teenagers.

Our stay at your townhome was most enjoyable. We loved being able to provide a place for people to meet and mingle while we were in town for our daughter's wedding. The kitchen was well supplied; the house was clean and matched the on-line description. The beds were very comfortable and the towels were soft. The location is great - 15 minutes from SeaTac airport and 15 minutes from downtown. We made these trips frequently as wedding guests came and left. We would definitely recommend this property!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

...in the house at Alki. It is such a beautiful home with every amenity you could imagine. We had friends that stayed in other areas of Seattle for a wedding, and everyone said they'd wished they'd found this place instead. The owners are very nice as well, and were helpful in every way. When we come back to Seattle, we hope this home is available.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with teenagers.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2004
About the owner: Ken and I have been married and have lived in the Seattle area for 40 years. We moved to West Seattle to be close to our family, the water, and all the fun that Seattle offers. You will love vacationing here!
Why the Owner Chose West Seattle:
We love West Seattle. We wanted a home within easy walking distance to the sandy beach of Alki, coffee shops, and restaurants. We love the ease of getting to all the sites of Seattle. The water taxi ride to downtown is like taking a cruise around the Sound.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
There are many wonderful things about our property. Location is probably number one. Our three bedrooms each have their own separate bathrooms. This is great for couples who want to share the property and for large families. With a beach, kids playground and park nearby, and easy access to all amenities it's an ideal rental for vacationers. And everyone loves our rooftop deck with views of the mountains, sound, and passing ferries.
