West Seattle Suite Shagalicious Studio Vacation Rental for Midcentury Living
- Minimum stay:3 nights
- Internet:Yes
- Pets allowed:No
- Wheel chair accessible:No
Welcome to Suite Shagalicious. Live for a time like you’re on the set of Madmen in 800 square feet of authentic, midcentury modern style, all part of a 1958 custom-built home by Swedish-born designer, Martin Ollas. This spacious, open-concept studio apartment is set to sleep you, and up to 2 others, in total comfort and style.
Proud with pedigree, Suite Shagalicious is a jewel within the showcase home praised for its architectural style and interior design chops, appearing in a full-feature layout for Seattle Times’ Pacific NW Magazine.
Punctuated with original art and furnished with a mix of modern and period designer pieces, The Shag is a skillful blend of the iconic past and all the modern upgrades one would expect in a contemporary boutique vacation rental setting. Well-appointed eat-in kitchen, defined living and sleeping areas, full-service laundry room, private bathroom and shower, and a luxurious, wrap-around, wood-burning fireplace all located on one floor, no stairs. The wonderful advantage of this layout is everything centers on the fireplace and the HD Satellite TV to enjoy from both the bed, and the sofa.
Speaking of comfort, we receive many accolades for our king size, memory foam, Bragada bed. Outfitted with 4 pillows; 2 Pacific Coast down (no goose feathers, here) and 2 memory-foam, this bed is one of luxury rarely available even at high-end hotels.
The additional traveler in your party will enjoy the suites’ American Leather Comfort Sleeper, a sofa that opens to a Double bed featuring an exclusive memory foam mattress on a platform foundation. This sleeper is the industry standard, guaranteed to provide a superb nights’ sleep without springs. No fear of losing coin flips, here!Of particular value is the advantage of private outdoor living space that comes as a bonus with the suite rental. The outdoor areas live like that of a full-sized home thanks to the professional talents of landscape architect, Brooks Kolb and Tallar Landscaping & Construction. A gorgeous, well-lit, private entry and serene, modern water feature greet you at the front door. The water feature placement ensures it can be seen from the kitchen and heard through the open window to wonderful effect. The single-light back door opens to a private, all-season, covered cedar porch for magnificent sunset views over the Puget Sound and snow-capped Olympic peaks. The sea air here is remarkable. And beyond the porch lays a gated courtyard for BBQ’s and other private-use enjoyment. Past the gate is a fire bowl for campfire-style entertainment during summer-season…toasted marshmallows, anyone? There’s no shortage of free, convenient street parking. The corner bus provides a 10-minute ride to Downtown, leaving every 20 minutes. Alki Beach and Fauntleroy Ferry are both 7-minute rides. Our location is only blocks to the California Junction and Farmer’s Market. With a walk to Morgan Street Junction shopping, drug store, convenience store, library, golf course, parks and church.
My husband and I are deeply proud of what we’ve accomplished making this home everything we knew it could be, and more. And since 2005, our honor and privilege is to share it with you. We have found our enthusiasm to do so is felt by all who visit here, and are humbled by those returning to us year after year. No greater emphasis to this point can be made than what has already been expressed by the nearly 100 on-line reviewers who share this view. Please read their comments and make your reservation with confidence. We hope to see you soon!

Rating Details: I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very unhappy with the location. The vacation rental was very clean. The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There are no restaurants or grocery stores nearby to walk to. This makes your stay very inconvenient if you do not have a vehicle.The unit was very clean, but old. My nine year granddaughter was upset with the two paintings of naked ladies in the hallway. I had to cover them with hand towels. Also, we had problems with large spiders (size of a fifty cent piece) that would come out at night. I would not recommend this unit to anyone else. Manager responded on 5/7/2013: Owner response: 1) Our home is under year-round contract with a professional pest control company where it continues to be regularly serviced, since 2006. 2) Our home is a classic 1958, midcentury modern, custom-build, and as such, retains a balance of original character and tasteful renovation with all modern up-grades. A March 2013 issue of Seattle Times' Pacific NW Magazine published a full-length feature article highlighting our rental suite and praising our home. This architecturally focused publication does not extend valuable coverage to "old" properties. 3) We do not have images of "naked ladies" on our premises. We display original art; lithographs and oils on par with the artistic nature of the culture in which we live. These are abstract figural works which are not realistic and should not be interpreted as such. 4) Just yards from a major bus line, our location is in the West Seattle neighborhood of the City of Seattle. We are within a 1/2 mile walking distance to Morgan Street Junction; a shopping hub where restaurants, major grocery store, coffee shops, retailers and services are conveniently located.Did you find this review helpful?

Rating Details: I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was spotless. The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Suite Shagalicious is in a great location for my Seattle needs. I come out to visit my daughter and her family. I can walk to her very small house or catch the 22 bus to her house or into downtown Seattle. My first impression walking in was this looks like a great (New) Jersey shore summer rental! The suite was wonderfully clean. I found Suite Shagalicious a very comfortable place to stay. I appreciated the availability of a washer and dryer. I will be back! Manager responded on 12/26/2012: Hello Mary! Thank you so much for providing us with a review of your stay. I'm happy to know you enjoyed your time at the Shag-a-licious!
