Trendy QueenAnne 2BD *roof top* mins to DT
Very kind and responsive host! We left a few belongings behind and she promptly alerted us and helped us retrieve them. Overall very lovely and would stay here again. Thanks!

Great walkability + Close to Seattle attractions.
Very nice stay, easy walk to Ballard main streets, clean, responsive host. If you have an issue with steps you may want to consider another place as there are 6 steps up to the entrance and then steps down into apt. That was my only concern.

Gorgeous 1BR Suite W/ Spectacular Waterfront View
Very cute space with great views, easy check in and Aaron was very responsive with any questions, was a perfect stop on our PNW road trip!

ALKI BEACH GETAWAY! Entire Apt -Across From Beach!
Family was visiting for a week of rest and relaxation and this space delivered in every way! Amazing location with it being just a half block away from Alki beach and early morning walks to finding a local spot to sit down and have a coffee and pastry. As this is the second time family has spent here that speaks volumes to how comfortable the hosts have made it for guests. I know that this space will be filled with my family whenever they come and visit in the future.

Jungle Room Near Pike Market
Our stay was short but Kevin & Michael were such excellent hosts. The place was immaculate, spacious, and as described in their listing. When we had some concerns, Kevin immediately responded to resolve the matter, going above and beyond his host duties. We couldn't have asked for a better host. if we're back in Seattle - we will definitely book their place again.

On ALKI Beach, 2 bedroom, unobstructed beach views
such a nice stay! hosts were so accommodating and responsive, and can’t beat the location. Typically staying directly on Alki is very noisy with low riders racing all night, but we had quiet evenings and felt right at home. thanks for a wonderful stay, we will be back!

Seaside Modern Apartment
We so enjoyed our time! The view was beautiful and we spent hours at the waterside. We even saw two otters playing. We also loved all the beautiful art! We had such a relaxing time.

Lovely spot, responsive host.

'Magical' Mid-Century Estate [27 Acres, Sleeps 12]
This is a truly magical space. Our group of friends created forever memories over our annual weekend gathering this year. Words and pictures don’t do it justice. The chorus of the frogs from the cedar tub was fantastic. Thank Mathew!!

Relaxing Waterfront Beach House
Mike has been one of the most attentive & friendly hosts that I have ever stayed with. They really make sure that you have everything you need, proactively checking in to ensure everything is comfortable for your stay. It felt like staying with extended family of sorts. this’s the fourth time I stay here and and we’ll continue to visit every year. This house is truly perfect for a getaway from the city. We loved getting to sit by the water and listen to the birds. The house is well stocked with everything you could need, Thank you Mike for sharing your beautiful home 🥂

Frank L Wright insp. house waterfront beach access
Amazing stay - well appointed and gorgeous design. Fully stocked kitchen, super comfortable beds and ample bathroom/shower accessibility. Loads of communal seating inside and outdoors. Will certainly rebook and highly recommend to prospective guests!

RiverSide House, patio, gazebo, 10 mins to Airport
This place was amazing! I wish we had more time to spend here because it had such a relaxing outdoor space. Beds were comfy, and this place had EVERYTHING you could need. Very family friendly. Lots of games, toys, and a very clean space. Mika was such a great host. Will save this spot to be sure and come back next time we pass through.

Ocean Front Tranquility, Rainier View, Big Deck
This was my second time staying at this amazing home. The home is very nice, new and spotless. It’s a very comfortable place to stay. And it’s right on the water with spectacular views of Mt Ranier. It’s also close to Sunrise Beach Park that has fun hiking trails. And the town of Gig Harbor is a gem. Both of my stays were perfect. And it’s only about 600 steps from parking to the house - and it’s a beautiful walk along the water. I can’t recommend this house strongly enough.

1bd Getaway @ Alki Beachfront•BED 2 BEACH 59 STEPS
Quaint little place to stay on the beach. I have never slept so well than I did on that mattress. OMG. 2 nights in a row of great sleep is hard to come by and in itself is worth the stay. Great hosts and very communicative. Staying for another week.

Private House on creek-Hot tub! Near wineries!
Anne was very very helpful and had very clear instructions. We really appreciated the videos of how to use the hot tub and of the house rules The back yard was perfect for our animals Would highly recommend! We’d love to come back! :))

Manchester House-Cottage on the Puget Sound
We LOVED our stay at Julie’s place. The house was cozy and full of nice touches. The views from the back deck are stunning. The kitchen was fully stocked. Perfect place for a family to gather! The host was very flexible, allowed us to check in early which was great when traveling with an adult with a disability and a baby. We will definitely want to come back in the summer to enjoy all the home has to offer.

Waterfront! Free Parking! King Bed! Pike Place!
Perfect spot for a girls weekend getaway. We were able to fit 6 women into this space and it didn't even feel crowded! The bathroom and bedroom were good sizes and there were enough very comfortable air mattresses for everyone to have a comfortable sleep. Robert was extremely responsive and answered all of my questions. The condo was right near Pike Place and the Pier, which was perfect - and walkable to so many bars and restaurants. Great deal and would definitely stay again.

Free Parking! Stylish Pike Place Market Condo
This property has amazing views of the Elliott Bay! Host Sean is super helpful in messages through out the reservation with clear details of check-in/check-out process. I would come again!

Mid-Century Penthouse, Walk score 99. 2bd 2bath
Awesome spot! Was perfect for our group of 7! Ryan was very helpful and patient with helping me figure out how to get to the location. Clean up is very easy as well!

Modern Waterfront Condo in the Heart of Seattle
Such a great stay! The hosts communicated exceptionally well and made everything easy with clear instructions. I needed a place to work remotely and also wanted to be near my friends in Belltown, and this was the perfect home base. The location is ideal—close to Pike Place and the waterfront, and super walkable. It was quiet enough to focus during the day and convenient for everything I needed. I’d definitely stay here again.

***Waterfront Condo! A Rare Find! Free Parking!***
Check-in was super easy as Jeri leaves very detailed instructions for everything. He’s also very communicative and often messages you before you have a chance to ask him something! Make sure to check out Jeri’s list of recommendations as it provided us with plenty of places to eat at.

2-bdrm Waterfront Downtown Seattle
We really enjoyed staying here. The view is beautiful. Even though there is a lot of traffic near by, it was quiet and easy to fall asleep. We loved that almost everything was within walking distance and we didn’t need to use Lyft or Uber much. Just be prepared to have your legs hurting at the end of your vacation if you’re not used to walking that much.

2BR VIEW! 98% Walk Score-FREE pkg-hot tub-pool
Gayle and her staff were great! Their instructions were clear and thorough. They were friendly and very helpful in helping us have a great experience in visiting Seattle and the surrounding areas. My family and friends were thrilled with our stay!

Seattle Center Condo Water View|Parking|KrakenGame
This was a great place to stay during our recent trip. It is centrally located and we were able to explore quite a bit on foot or with a short drive. The space was clean and has a great view. The kitchen allowed us to make breakfast before heading out for the day’s adventure, then we came back in the evening to make dinner and unwind with a movie. We thoroughly enjoyed staying here.
