What a beautiful apartment - spotless and very homey with lots of personal decorating touches. The kitchen was very well equipped and the bed was comfy. The location was perfect for our visit and THE VIEW was amazing!! Checkin was easy and the host helped us bring in suitcases which was very nice. Highly recommend staying here and we look forward to returning again!

Great West Seattle quiet neighborhood. Property just as described. Comfortable one-bedroom with a great bed and bathroom shower. Amazing views of Puget Sound and all the boat traffic. Binoculars would come in handy while sitting outside on the bench. Kitchen has everything. There are some steps to walk up to the door, so be aware of that. Property is on a steep hill. Felt very secure in the neighborhood. Truly, one of our best vrbo experiences. Hope to stay again when we next visit our family.

It was the best decision to stay in this property during my stay in Seattle for around 2 months. It only take less than 20 mins by car to Seattle downtown. The neighboring area are full of friendly people and beautiful sight to be hold. The owners are very helpful and friendly. I highly recommend anyone looking for place to rent in Seattle to consider this place. PS. I strongly recommend you have your own transportation method.

This is the second time we were able to stay at this home. First time was several years ago. It was even more delightful for the second visit. The owners have kept the space in immaculate condition. Every thing you need is there from the start. And they were quick to respond with help and questions when it was needed. The view from the space is stunning, and of course is different every day, and time of day. We were able to get some work done while there, as well. The location was perfect to get to the beach or the main junction. Definitely a keeper spot for our visits to family in West Seattle.

I stayed for the month of September to see my son and celebrate my birthday. I love Alki Seattle it’s so beautiful. I loved waking up looking out at the beautiful view,watching the ferry’s boats. I loved the fall colors and wonderful places to eat and I enjoyed going to 6 concerts while there. I had so much fun spending time with my son. Thank-You:)

This is our second stay at the lovely apartment, and we hope to return again! The location is fantastic, walkable to the shoreline and with gorgeous water views! It's so nicely furnished and decorated, quiet, comfortable bed and spacious. Well-equipped kitchen and nice bathroom. We really enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful locatuon and friendly hosts willing to help out when needed. Would recommend a stay if looking for a great view, in a wonderful neighborhood.

First, all the communication with Kathryn and John was excellent: before the booking was made; after the booking was made and before our arrival; and after we arrived. In addition to any questions that arose, the apartment had written information - in a binder and strategically positioned notes - that addressed our questions as they arose. This is one of the most intelligently and logically run VRBOs that we've encountered. As for the location, we couldn't have asked for more. We enjoyed the walk along Alki Beach, in one direction, and then a walk along Beach Drive, in the opposite direction, that took us to Lincoln Park. Believe it or not, there are secluded/rustic park hiking opportunities in this city within a city: check out nearby Schmitz Preserve and a little farther away is Camp Long. Getting back to the airport was so easy via a ride share service early on the weekday morning. Otherwise, we used public bus transportation to get to all parts of Seattle and beyond at all hours. We even tried the water taxi - great fun. As vegans, we especially enjoyed grocery shopping at Metropolitan Market in West Seattle. We tried vegan options at the following locations: Cactus, A La Mode, Box Bar, and Luna Park Cafe - all in West Seattle Thank you to Kathryn and John for an excellent experience.

The reviews of this property are accurate. It is everything and more as described in the reviews.

Everything was perfect about this VRBO. The location was outstanding, about four miles from downtown Seattle, yet it felt miles away. The view of the sound and mountains took our breath away. It was the perfect, comfortable, secure getaway for our week stay. The host were very kind. Don't miss out on this one.

This was a beautiful, clean, cozy, spacious apartment with amazing views. We stayed from May 24 through May 31 and enjoyed our stay at Kathryn and John's apartment. It was the perfect place for us to walk to my brother's home on Beach Drive and an exhilarating walk to the beach and restaurants. The apartment is also a convenient location for the water taxi and if you have a vehicle, the ferry. Kathryn and John provide clear instructions and plenty of recommendations for dining. Grab a cider at Locust, a delicious meal at Harry's Beach House, or Cactus. Don't forget breakfast at Alki cafe. Oh, and I should mention the absolutely BEST croissants from Bakery Nouveau. We HIGHLY recommend this EXCEPTIONAL apartment! It will be our first choice when we return to Seattle.

We stayed at Kathryn and John's West Seattle rental unit from May 12 to May 19, 2023. Great location and wonderful views from the kitchen and living room. And the landscaping on the premise is well-done. This rental unit is comfortable, has great views from the kitchen and living room windows, is spacious and was a great place to begin the day and then unwind after our daily excursions. The location of this unit is conveniently located and although we drove most of the time, we also took the water taxi that only takes 15 minutes from/to West Seattle and downtown Seattle. In addition to this comfortable unit, we found useful the notebook that Kathryn and John put together of West Seattle restaurants and other amenities. It was helpful that they indicated some of their favorites. From their recommendations, we picked up box lunches from Husky’s Deli for our trip to Mt. Rainier, purchased fabulous Halibut from Seattle Fish Company for preparation at the rental unit. Delicious! Purchased more than once, amazing croissants from the Bakery Nouveau. This bakery has the best croissants that we have had since living a year in Paris and then frequently visiting thereafter. And then on our last day before catching our flight home, we ate lunch at Duke’s Seafood. Their crab “un” cake was great. All these places are a short driving distance from this lovely rental unit. We enjoyed our stay very much.

This is a lovely apartment with beautiful views. We had everything we needed and clear instructions. The apartment is a short drive from Alki Beach, where we spent our mornings. We enjoyed our time in the apartment and recommend it to other travelers.

Alki-Soundview was beautiful, clean and spacious. The view was spectacular. My husband really enjoyed his morning runs along the Alki Beach. It was a perfect place for a delightful weekend get away in the PNW! We did wish that TV in the bedroom is a little bigger :)

We loved this place. We went to Seattle for the first time for a few MLB games. We stayed at this gem on Alki. The view from the BnB is beautiful like the pictures. We did not rent a car and the weather happened to be cold and drizzly for 4 out of the 5 days but we had a great time. This place is totally doable without a vehicle. Download the myorca app for your phone, it costs $8 dollars per day total to go pretty much anywhere in the city by bus, train, or ferry. The walk down to the bus stop takes about 10 minutes but it's easy and pretty. There is a trip planner feature within the app telling you what time the bus comes and which train to get on, it's super efficient and reliable. On the way back to the BnB we would stop around the Safeway grocery store to grab whatever and take an Uber from there to avoid the steep walk uphill back to the BnB. It cost about 18 dollars per night but still better than parking everywhere and the hassle of driving. The accommodations were cozy and comfortable, the shower was nice and hot, John and Kathryn are friendly and gracious. If you want to watch Netflix or whatever you want to bring a firestick but they do have cable and tvs in the living room and bedroom which was great. Alki Beach is super cool and the perfect area to stay in. It is close enough to the city but far enough away too. Fire Tacos, Dukes Seafood & Chowder, and Salty's were all delicious. Kahuna Dave at the Alki Surf Shop was super nice. My gf and I were both very happy.

Wonderful property, great homeowners, excellent communication! Look forward to staying again!

The apartment was clean, cozy, and in a lovely West Seattle neighborhood. Kathryn and John were personable and helpful. We will definitely consider staying there again.

Beautiful views, quiet neighborhood, and a great, private one-bedroom space with ample space to kick-back and enjoy! Once you learn the lay of the land and the many places around West Seattle that are close by, this is our choice where to stay when visiting Seattle. We'll be back!

Wow! Property is exceptional - clean, spacious, well appointed and centrally located. Highly recommend, well stay here again.

My wife and I love West Seattle. This property is in a perfect location. Great view of the Sound. Walking distance from Alki. The place is in excellent condition with all the amenities!! Great value!!

Lovely suite in West Seattle with spectacular views, great location close to Alki beach area. Suite had all the amenities to make the stay comfortable and enjoyable.

Will never book a hotel in the Seattle area again. It was a wonderful experience, location, view.

The property was in a great location with only a few mins commute to the beach and restaurants only 20 mins away from Downtown Seattle and the host were very nice and helpful answered all of my concerns before the trip started

We were visiting family in West Seattle and this was the perfect place! The views are amazing!

We came to Seattle for an early anniversary trip and it was our first time in West Seattle. This apartment was located in a quiet neighborhood not too far from the bay. We enjoyed staying here very much and the accommodations were very comfortable.

Beautiful apartment , immaculately maintained by owners. On a hill overlooking the Puget Sound. Beautiful sunsets. Quiet neighborhood. Must have a car to get around.

This property was 7 minutes from my nephew’s house. It was a wonderful place to stay! It’s very close to Alki Beach but not in the traffic of it. It takes only a few minutes to drive to the beach and restaurants. The view of Puget Sound from our windows was stunning. The rental was super clean and very comfortable. I love not having to search for a parking space. We are definitely staying here on all of our return trips to Seattle.

Absolutely loved West Seattle. This was the last leg of our Pacific Northwest trip and our family of 5. The apartment was marvelous with the most beautiful view of the Puget Sound. Would highly recommend!

10 out of 10 best ever!!!!hoping to stay again!!

The process was seemless. The owner's had everything ready so we just moved in.

Our family had a wonderful stay at your property. We were visiting our family in the area and your home provided a great home base for us all.
