Welcome to Alki Beach, Seattle's birthplace, and home of the historic Alki cottage. Built in 1907 and recently updated, this cottage is one of the original West Seattle beach houses. Detailed with memorabilia, this two-story bungalow celebrates Seattle's legendary music scene. Enjoy Puget Sound and Olympic Mountain views from your front porch and throughout the house. Launch paddle boards or kayaks directly across the street. You'll find the extensive walking and bike path along Alki here as well. When you're ready to go sightseeing or take in a game, hop on the water taxi for a scenic ride across Elliott Bay to Seattle's waterfront and downtown! Styled with an amazing array of memorabilia, the living room is a music lover's dream! Choose an album to play from the well-stocked collection. Or settle in on the sleeper sofa and watch a movie on the 58-inch Smart TV. The reading nook also offers a record player and gorgeous water views.

Prepare meals and beach snacks in the well-appointed kitchen, equipped with a full suite of stainless steel appliances. When you're ready to eat, gather around the welcoming table in the dining area. Start your day sipping coffee on the porch with a full view of Puget Sound and the Alki boardwalk. A firepit, ample seating, and gas grill await on the patio. In the yard, you'll find a gas grill and picnic table - perfect for a sunlit al fresco meal. This relaxing retreat is steps from the Alki Beach Volleyball courts as well as numerous eateries and pubs. Spend the day tide-pooling or take in breathtaking sunsets at one of the fire pits along the beach!

The passenger-only water taxi at Seacrest Ferry Dock is less than a mile away. Grab the free shuttle or skate, bike, or walk to it as bikes are allowed on-board. Enjoy the stunning views of downtown Seattle as the water taxi transports you to Colman Dock. Then stroll to popular attractions like Pike Place Market, the Seattle Art Museum, historic Pioneer Square, and the sports stadiums (Century Link and T-Mobile Park). There is the bustling West Seattle shopping district - The Junction (home of Easy Street Records, Husky Deli, Bakery Nouveau, etc) for a local experience.

    Great location and music vibe. Feedback would be ants and no window covering on main level bedroom windows.

    Super fun home for beach and music lovers. It’s steps from Alki beach and has tons music and memorabilia to enjoy during our stay.

    This house has an amazing location. It’s very old and rickety, but if you can just embrace that, the location is wonderful. You can see the water, and it’s a short drive to downtown Seattle.

    Probably my favorite rental ever and for a variety of reasons. The decor and connection to the depth and culture of Seattle and West Seattle specifically, the location across the street from the beach and for my group it was the nostalgia of being back next in the neighborhood we grew up in. We’ll be back!

    The location is fantastic! Close to all the fun great for beach walks. Excellent record collection and turntables!

    I stayed here with some friends for a Wu-Tang concert weekend. Great vibe. I used to live in West Seattle so I knew the area well, and enjoyed a very nice dinner at Il Nido. Hard to beat a summer weekend at Alki. The house is old and rickety, but clean and comfortable. Perfect for us.
    10.0 / 10.0
    What a hidden gem! We had an amazing time and made some beautiful memories here with our friends for Fourth of July. The vibes were extremely chill and welcoming. Super close to the beach and all that Alki has to offer. We will definitely be back.
