Had a great time. Able to watch the boats/ferries/ships pass by, and the Olympic Mtn range was the backdrop. Nice drive down Alki Beach to seafood diners, and lots of dining/shopping along California Ave.

This rental is highly recommended. Wife and daughter loved the area's relaxed atmosphere. Property owner was very courteous and communicated well. The internet and TV services were exceptional. You have to try some of the area restaurants, and the Frensh Bakery. Enjoyed the view in the evening for 9 days. Sunset is awesome.

This house was comfortable with lovely views of the Sound. We loved the quiet neighborhood and the fact that it gave daisy access to downtown Seattle. Would definitely stay there again if traveling to the area.

very nice home with all the amenities that one could need very clean and cozy house with the beautiful views

The house is cute, and the view is AMAZING! Our host thought of absolutely everything a guest might need. The neighborhood is quiet, with shops and restaurants close by. I highly recommend Bakery Nouveau. Alki Beach is a short walk/drive down the hill. Downtown Seattle is about 15 minutes away by car. Just book it, you won't be disappointed!

Felt like home! Very nice!

Very well appointed house with a stunning view of the bay. Great location convenient to downtown Seattle by car.

This charming house has a beautiful view and great amenities. My family would definitely stay again. Thank you!

We wanted a comfy place to stay for our family getaway, and this house was perfect! The owner was really communicative, the house was really clean and functional, and had lots of little touches that made our stay even better. I highly recommend this house if you and your small family want a cozy home base for your visit to Seattle.

Awesome neighborhood, beautiful home, spectacular views. Owner very friendly. Would definitely stay there again

A charming house with an amazing view. We truly enjoyed our stay. I highly recommend it!

We stayed for a long weekend with our two elementary age kids, and it was wonderful. Spent the days out exploring, and came home in the evening to a calm, comfortable house with a killer view. The hosts were very accommodating when we needed help after checking out, and the house had everything we could have needed. The area is wonderful and easily accessible.

We truly enjoyed our stay over Memorial Day weekend. The sunset and views were exactly as advertised. Short walk to many places to eat and incredible views across the water of Seattle. Communication with the owner was perfect and information on commonly asked questions was on display throughout. It was easy to feel at home.

Gorgeous home and grounds overlooking the ocean. Immaculate interior and big balcony facing the sunset. Lots of windows and sun. Great neighborhood 1/4 mile from the beach and strip. And near downtown. Didn’t want to leave!

My wife and I loved this place! The property was meticulously organized, clean, and beautiful. The location is perfectly located to explore the hustle and bustle of Seattle and the peaceful nature of the nearby mountain area. We would highly recommend!!

Perfect for a getaway. The property has amazing views and convenient to downtown.

We loved the location of the house which was a 15 minute walk to the beach, restaurants and shops. The neighborhood was peaceful and beautiful. The house was very cozy and the view could not be beat. Great communication and very easy check-in!

Clean, peaceful, organized, and lovely house. I would love to be back again. Thank you

Wonderful fairy tale like home sitting on the water with amazing views. Neighborhood is absolutely gorgeous with easy access to small town eateries and stores. The owner is very responsive and kind - answering any questions we had on the trip!

The house is an upgraded well kept vintage house tastefully done but with the charm of its era. Everything is very organized for the guest with easy notes on how things work. The views are beautiful especially now with the snow covered mountains. I love how the galley kitchen is easy to work in, for one person, and well equipped to make anything. There is a lovely yard for kids to play in too.

Renovated older home that met our needs to the tee.

This was a surprise location for my gf & she absolutely loved the view & overall enjoyed her stay. Especially the Christmas tree was a fantastic homey touch

Nice property

the home was clean well cared for with a great view of the sound. Nice neighborhood to walk in. Walk to stores and local restaurants as well. The owners are very friendly and service oriented. Quick response to any questions we had during our stay. Highly recomend the property.

The cottage was a beautiful base for a visit to Seattle. Lovely views, a ten to fifteen minute drive into the center of the city, and in a quiet neighborhood to walk in at night.

Enjoyed our stay, comfortable, quiet location and awesome views.

We really enjoyed our stay. It has a beautiful view and only a 20 min drive into Seattle. Also has a cool small downtown with good restaurants. Host was also very nice.

This was a perfect vacation stay. Michelle (host) is absolutely amazing. The house is impeccable with everything you could need. Very quiet, clean, all the accessories you need including slippers, beach towels and umbrellas. I will never forget this stay and enjoying the beautiful view for quiet morning coffee and evening wine on the deck. Thank you Michelle. Highly recommend.

This home was so nice! Great location and everything you need plus some! We really appreciated the cleanliness and organization of the home too.

We absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful property. The views on a hill overlooking Elliott Bay were stunning...ferries to Bainbridge and Bremerton passing by and sailboats in the distance. Huge bay windows along the back of the house along with the back deck were the highlights for us....we sat and watched sunsets and loved every minute of it. Our host made everything easy by leaving detailed information about the house and area....there were nice little notes throughout the house with pro tips (a very thoughtful way to help us navigate without guessing how everything worked!!). Kitchen was well appointed and even included many basics we didn't need to purchase. The location was close to many local coffee shops, breweries, restaurants, and parks. Big bonus was the lovely prints and photographs on the walls. An artsy and cozy home with a view, we would definitely stay in this home again.

We loved our stay at Casa Florence! Michelle was a wonderful host, living next door she was happy to offer tips and advice for the area. We were there during a heat wave but still stayed cool enough in the house. Our kids loved the trampoline and playing with Michelle’s son, a highlight of the trip for them! Our highlight was enjoying the beautiful sunsets on the back patio once the kids were in bed :)

Great and accurate pics on the VRBO site; everything you need in the kitchen (including very sharp knives - something often missing at VRBOs). Everything you need to know is labeled (including the three trash bins, lights, instructions on various things, etc.) or in the provided binder. Things to note: house is down the hill from the street down a not-too-steep sidewalk/stairway. The stairs are uneven so watch your step. Also, spiders like to build webs across the path at night so walk with a stick or something to knock them down the first time you walk up it each day.There is a "no shoe' policy so plan accordingly (we brought indoor only slippers), the floors were very clean so this was not an issue for us. The roads in the neighborhood are narrow and there are not any stop signs (except at major cross streets). The speed limit is 25 and it seems like everyone obeys this. Just be extra careful at the uncontrolled intersections. My only complaint (if you can even call it that) is that the light in the upstairs hallway (by the bedrooms and bathroom) is on a motion sensor (with no way to turn it off) and is very bright - not great for those night time trips to the bathroom. We solved this by using a couple post-it notes to block the motion sensor - problem solved! :) Bottom line - this VRBO does everything right. Great communications, very friendly, plenty of cooking utensils, wi-fi included (although sometimes a little slow). They even have several games and books for your enjoyment. Oh and umbrellas and backpacks and beach towels for your use! Other VRBO owners could learn a thing or two (or more) from this place!
