We had a lovely stay at Marian and Jone’s house overlooking Alki beach. The location could not have been more perfect! We felt instantly refreshed every time we looked out the windows at the panoramic view of Puget Sound. The proximity to so many delicious West Seattle restaurants was huge bonus.
We loved being able to cook and eat dinner in the open kitchen whilst taking in the gorgeous sunset. The sofa in the living room was super comfortable and was great for relaxing after a long walk on Alki. The view from the master bedroom was similarly stunning, and the motorized shades in the master were a nice convenience.
We did struggle a bit with a couple things, which I’ll call out here for the sake of other travelers who may be as particular as we are:
- even with the shades down in the master, it still gets a lot of light. If you are a light-sensitive sleeper, bring an eye mask.
- the wifi connection was pretty spotty on the main floor. I was working remotely during our stay and had to reposition myself often to find the strongest wifi signal to do my work.
Overall, we loved our time at this house and look forward to returning the next time we want a beach vacation in Seattle.
