About this house rental
Location, Location, Location! This luxury home is as close as you can get to the ocean in Seward. A pair of otters feed right in front of the house. Watch sealions swim past along with the occational orca or humpback. While under construction the property was nicknamed the Front Row. If you like a spectacular view, the Front Row has it with the Bay, surrounded mountains and glacial views. The view from the third floor master bedroom will simply take your breath away. All three bedrooms have great views. The Seward Front Row Townhouse has three King bedrooms with one King bed in each, and three and a half baths. We provide three tall queen airbeds for extra guests. Bad weather is not a problem as the Hot Tub is tucked under an overhang with a great view of the bay. You can see Fox island 12 miles down the bay. Sit around the large firepit in the front yard with your family and friends!
No car is needed; you're 2 blocks from shops and restaurants, the shuttle pick up is just down the street and there is a bike path along the waterfront leading to the harbor with fishing charters and tours of Kenai Fjord National Park. Cabs charge $5 to anywhere in town. When the Silver salmon are in you can fish right in front of the house and we have a fish cleaning sink in the garage so bring home what you catch.
We offer tour planning and tour booking and have neightbor properties we work with to accommodate larger groups.

Property was just as advertised. We have been to Seward many times, and this was just perfect. Clean, and easy to set up with the owners.
Will be staying again!
4.0 / 5.0
It would have helped to have the light switches (and there were MANY) labeled. Not being familiar with the control wands for the top-up, bottom-down blinds in the kitchen was a problem. A short "how to" blurb in the binder would have been extremely helpful as the neighbor's porch lights shine directly into the kitchen and we were unable to block that light. Working bathroom fans would also have been good.
Other than that, the place was really nice, conveniently located with amazing views. We lacked for nothing in the kitchen! Internet and TV worked as advertised and the hot tub was functioning.
For the cost, it could have been cleaner and some lights just didn't work, which can easily be fixed (I think)

We were a group of 8. Two families with two adults and two kids each.
Property was very centrally located, and we could walk to everything. Inside was very clean, and they had optional air mattresses so the kids were able to pile into the third bedroom.
Host was amazing, very responsive and accommodating.

This house is perfect for a family. There is plenty of space and privacy. The house is immaculate, the kitchen is well appointed with things you may need and lots of empty cabinet to store your own supplies. Sarah is a dream to work with!

We rented two townhomes for 16 people and this was, by far, the best location, service, and location we've ever received in 10 years of vacationing together! Sarah was the most awesome host EVER!

This was an incredible place to stay in Seward. The views from the deck, hot tub and living room were beautiful. The kitchen was large enough to cook breakfast and dinner. It was easily walkable into dinner options and local shops. The bathroom and bedroom set up was perfect. A bedroom down stairs with a bathroom. Bathroom off the main living space. And then two large bathrooms and bedrooms upstairs. The beds were very comfortable. We were able to do laundry as well. There was a garage that was easily accessible as well! The people in the area were so friendly. We did a sightseeing and fishing all day tour that left from the marina with Saltwater Tours. The captains were very knowledgeable about the area and it was a perfect excursion. The boat only fit 15 total people and it ended up being just our family of 7. Cannot wait to come back-would stay here again!!

This is the second time I have stayed here and it is wonderful. And the day we were suppose to leave in the morning, we had snow and the manager texted me first and offered to let us stay. I have nothing bad to say about the whole experience. Will certainly be back.

This VRBO was everything and more. Location, Amenities, Layout, Kitchen, hot tub, flexibility, ALL TOP NOTCH. The location is perfect for walking to a coffee shop in the morning or a stroll by the ocean. Comfortable beds, amazing hot tub with a view and super smooth check in and out. We didn't feel unsafe, or unwelcome, parking was great and I will 100% recommend this VRBO.

Property was beautiful and provided spectacular views. The Seward aquarium as well as several dining options and shopping were all an easy 5 minute walk. Everyone was comfortable and the included air mattresses gave our kids some flexible sleeping options while still providing the adults with privacy. Took an unbelievable sightseeing tour with Major Marine Tours and saw orcas and humpbacks along with numerous other wildlife species. We had a great time and thank you for a great stay!

The condo was fantastic! Much bigger in person than in the photos. Great location. We walked to town, the sea life center and even up to the marina. We arrived early off the train and were able to store our bags until check in. The large family area and hot tub were so welcome after day trips from Seward. The views from the house and the deck were incredible. Would highly recommend visiting Seward and staying at this property.

This property was AMAZING! The house was very clean, super close to town, and had spectacular views all around. Sarah answered any questions I had and made sure we knew the Aurora was out. We will definitely book again for any Seward stays!

We rented this Seward property in order to spend time as a family with visitors from the lower 48 as well as from Alaska. It was perfect for our group. The location is exceptional. Close to everything in Seward, including the Sea Life Center which we took the two children to for a fun afternoon. The views are spectacular. So spending time inside was great as well, enjoying the waterfront scenery. The house was very clean. The beds are very comfortable. The kitchen is large and great for preparing group meals. The kids and the adults enjoyed the hot tub. We had a hiccup with the heat when we first arrived. It was taken care of immediately. The responsiveness and customer service with this property was excellent. We hope to come back again. Highly recommend this property for your trip to Seward.

Our family recently stayed in Seward at the Front Row Townhouse for a week. We really enjoyed this place due to the luxury feel of the accommodations. Hands down the best constructed and largest home we have stayed in while visiting Alaska. The hot tub was divine and well as the location to restaurants within walking distance. We look forward to booking again next year ! Thank you for an awesome stay !!!

Walking distance or short drive to everywhere in Seward.
Right across the street from the pedestrian waterfront park.
Try Zudy's for breakfast.
The house itself is huge and well equipped with nice big rooms and bathrooms and showers, laundry, heating, etc.
Would definitely stay here again when returning to Seward.
