You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Driftwood Suites - TidePool (#3)

This apartment was designed with your comfort in mind and comes fully equipped with everything you'll need for an enjoyable stay. This unit has 3 bedrooms and 1 full bath and is located on the second floor. You'll find unbeatable views of surrounding mountains from every window as well as from both the front and back decks.

Each bedroom and sleeping area is thoughtfully fitted with black-out coverings to help guests get a good night sleep in the land of the Midnight Sun. The blinds are also top down, bottom up so that you can maintain privacy from the street but still enjoy the mountain views.

There are two bedrooms with a queen size bed in each and one bedroom with a bunk bed that has a twin and full size mattress. The apartment has only one bathroom, but the toilet and bathtub are separated from the sink. There is a washer/dryer in the unit.

The kitchen features a large space for cooking and a grill is on the deck for outdoor cooking as well. The kitchen is fully stocked with most everything you'll need to prepare meals and beverages. We do encourage guests to refrain from cooking fish inside the unit and instead encourage the outdoor grill to cook your local catch instead. We do not allow processing of fish on property.

Ideally located right in the heart of Seward within walking distance of the harbor and the historic downtown district, Driftwood Suites houses three vacation rental apartments and the office for a real estate brokerage, Seward Properties. Please keep in mind that the suite shares a wall with another unit. If you're a light sleeper, we suggest bringing a sound machine.

Located only two blocks from a free city shuttle stop and less than a block away from Exit Glacier Guides, which offers inexpensive transport to the Exit Glacier area of Kenai Fjords National Park. Perched along the rocky coast of Resurrection Bay, Seward is a small, seaside community and a great destination for those seeking adventure, Alaskan style!

As a free resource, my husband Clay, a local boat captain, and I are here to answer questions or help you book the perfect excursion to explore Seward and the surrounding Kenai Fjords National Park. We offer discounts on many tours to our guests.

Kylee, Clay and the Seward Vacation Stays team are excited to host you, share their favorite Alaskan adventures, and ensure you have the very best stay in Seward.
We do encourage guests to refrain from cooking fish inside the unit; however, we do provide a grill for outdoor cooking of your local catch. We do not allow processing of fish on property.

Great stay
Our stay at Driftwood Suites was great. The place itself was perfect for our needs (two couples + 1 teenager). Everything was as we expected. The location was great (between the two "centers" of Seward). Check-in and checkout was super easy. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Property is Wonderful
We loved our time in this condo. We had enough space for the six of us and they nicely supplied plenty of towels and glasses and dishes. The owners were super responsive and when we needed to add a night to our booking, they quickly arranged it. Seward is absolutely gorgeous. We would love to come again.

Magnificent Views and Location
This unit was perfect. Immaculately clean and located between historic downtown and the amazingly beautiful small boat harbor. We were in unit 3 and had incredible views out of every window. And the windows were BIG! Didn't need a car which was nice. Mt Marathon hike was also steps away. Shhhh. Don't tell!

Centrally located
The view from the front porch was amazing with the mountains and the pedestrian traffic. I could have stayed there forever. Add in comfy beds and great room darkening shades and this space had everything that a family of four could possibly need. The location is a short walk to the downtown area on the south end and the marina area to the north. The kitchen was well equipped and the grill was the cleanest we have ever had at a rental. The cleaning staff even promptly notified us of a piece of jewelry that our daughter had accidentally left behind. All in all, this was one of our favorite stays in Alaska.
