Quiet 1200 Sq Ft View Apartment, Near Beach

'Alki-Soundview' is located just 25 min. (15 miles) from SeaTac Int'l Airport and 20 min. (7 miles by car) from downtown Seattle. [The high-rise West Seattle Bridge reopened on September 18, 2022 after a 2 1/2 year closure. ] Guests will enjoy the wonderful views from your apartment of Puget Sound, the Olympic Mtns, and looking over Alki Beach/Point from this well-appointed, garden level apartment (1200 sq feet) on Genesee Hill in West Seattle.

This private apartment has one bedroom with a queen-sized bed, one bathroom with a large tile shower (no tub). The apartment can accommodate five people. Additional, sleeping beds are fold out beds. We charge $15 per person per night for guests after the first two.

The large, fully furnished kitchen includes all major appliances and a coffeemaker and toaster. Parking is available on the dead-end street beside the apartment. We list exclusively on VRBO/Homeaway and affiliates. If you find this listing on Craigslist, it is fraudulent.

Relax outside in your private covered entrance area with your favorite beverage and enjoy the view over Alki Beach/Point, Puget Sound, the Olympic Mountains, and Islands.

'Alki-Soundview' is a perfect home- base with which to explore the Greater Seattle area. Walk down the hill to Alki Beach (.7 mi.) for picnicking, biking, tennis, beach volleyball and walking or jogging several miles of beach walk, exploring and enjoying water-oriented activities.

Good public bus transport, walk-on Water taxi to downtown, and WA State Ferries to Vashon Island and Kitsap Peninsula, affords you the opportunity to access all the entertainment, and sights of interest of the region. Also consider using Uber or Lyft which are readily available plus several car or bike sharing services. There are lots of places to see: Seattle Center (Space Needle, Science Center, Museum of Pop Culture), Pike Place Market, the Central Waterfront, Pioneer Square, Seattle Downtown, Capitol Hill, University of Washington, Boeing Tours, Museum of Flight, a fine assortment of museums and Pro Sports and Performing Arts.

A note about Seattle taxes: we are disappointed to report that starting in 2019 the City has imposed a 15.7% tax vacation rentals less than 30 days long. If you are planning a long visit, you might save a lot by staying 30 days or more.

Come visit and enjoy all that we have to offer in the Northwest.

Gorgeous place and view. Gracious hosts like the owners make the place even more desirable. We spent several evenings sitting in the front porch area, basking in the evening sun. Not very hot all (we are Floridians).Definitely need a car and enhanced driving skills. Lots of hills and narrow streets with parked cars to contend with. A couple of miles from the apartment, all around really. That is Seattle.

The property has a great location and nice views. Directions from owner were helpful and clear. The apartment was a perfect size for a couple.The amenities were just ok. The apartment is dated and seemed somewhat dingy. We found a stain on one of the living room pillows that seemed to be some sort of body fluid, we found a couple if pieces of candy on the bedroom floor when we arrived, the extra blankets were wool, stiff and had a smell. The pillows were very worn and not comfortable. The two cooking knives were very dull, unable to use for cutting food.Additionally, the owner came to meet us and made a negative comment about the governor of the state we are from. I was taken aback at the inappropriateness of the comment and assumption she made about how her comment would be received. I have never had a rental property owner make any political statement to me and I have never discussed politics with a property owner in the course of renting a vacation property. It was in bad taste and not appropriate. We would not rent this property in the future.

Lovely stay!

Our stay in West Seattle was lovely. The apartment was in a great location and our first morning there we took a walk to the beach. The apt. was clean, quiet, and serene. The hosts had many extra amenities for their guests which was greatly appreciated. We would definitely stay here again. Five stars for certain!!

Ahhhmazing! The apartment is the perfect home away from home. A work conference brought me to the Seattle area, and I am so happy to have found this location. The owners are very responsive and very courteous of your privacy and needs. They have everything you could possibly need while staying. HIGHLY recommend.

Lovely apartment, stunning view, and a great stay.

The apartment was perfect for us. We had no difficulty checking in and were very pleased by how cosy and welcoming it is. Everything is set-up for the ultimate comfort of the guest and the view is stunningly beautiful! There are all the essential kitchen and bathroom amenities and the bed was very comfortable. It was perfect for our visit to see our family. In addition we are so grateful to the hosts who kindly accommodated a difficult situation for us so graciously. Thank you again John & Kathryn. You are premier and "star" hosts. We hope that we can visit again soon. Note: If you are touring the area, I would highly recommend having the use of a car when staying here.
