I have never stayed at a property with so many thoughtful amenities, from cold drinks to every utensil you could imagine to lotions and soaps, outlets galore to charge devices and of course the incredible view.

Would stay here again!!

We love this place, it was clean, had everything we needed. I wish we had more time just to sit on the swing and admire the view. Checkin was a breeze and the owner was quick with communication. Would very much stay here again. Love the open floorplan and blackout drapes around the queen bed.

I thought there was a separate bedroom, but there was not. It worked out fine. We had a lovely Thanksgiving with our son who is stationed at Ft. Lewis.

The apartment was perfect! It was very clean and comfortable. Having a washer/dryer was great. The setting was absolutely gorgeous! The host, Belinda, was very accommodating in letting us check in a little early and communication was easy and responses were quick. Would definitely recommend a stay there.

Commencement Bay Gem

My wife and I recently stayed for four nights. Although its a basement unit, the views are expansive and the accommodations are fantastic. Loved watching the sunset over the Olympic Peninsula and the location is much more peaceful than anything we have stayed at in the area. We will gladly revisit when back.

Great Find

This was the perfect place for us. Centrally located between Olympia and Seattle…where all of our plans were. Property is in bottom of host’s home. Private entrance in walk in basement apartment. The apartment is fully outfitted. The bed super comfortable. And an electric fireplace to make it cozy. The view was spectacular and we lucked out with some beautiful sunny days. Highly recommend.

Simply Perfect

We had a lovely stay-cation at Serene Sunsets! I could not think of a most fitting name. Everything is absolutely perfect. I could not think of a single thing to change. The sunsets are magical, parking instructions clear, the kitchen, and bathroom had everything we needed. The backyard was great to play games of duck, duck goose and catch. Our hosts were accommodating, quick to respond and very kind. Thank you again for having us.
