Vacation rentals with beach access in Ballard, Seattle

SUCH a great place!! so cute and close to the beach!! so perfect I wish I could stay forever! had such a great time I will never forget about this place.

This was a wonderful experience. I was in Seattle for a work training and I really felt at home. Lisa and Steve were so thoughtful and in the Airbnb I access to pots and pans, nice dishes, delicious snacks and really phenomenal coffee. The shower was my favorite. It was a glass shower with Aveda products. The bed was absolutely incredible - high quality sheets and great mattress. I can't wait to stay here again.

Really enjoyed our stay. Just as described. Peaceful, quiet location. Very safe and neighborhood-y. Easy drive to anything that you want or need, including some really great restaurants. The place was very comfortable and quiet. Everything was just as we hoped! Would definitely stay again.

I had a great stay at Marie José’s place in West Seattle! The house is beautifully designed, very comfortable, and incredibly user-friendly. Everything you need is thoughtfully provided, making it easy to feel right at home. It’s clear a lot of care went into creating a welcoming space. If I had to mention one small suggestion, it would be to maybe add a little table and a couple of chairs outside in the garden—it would be a lovely spot to enjoy a morning coffee or relax in the evening. Overall, a fantastic stay—highly recommended!

Wonderful little oasis. Very comfortable and fully stock kitchen everything you needed to cook a nice home cooked dinner. Make sure you are home to catch a sunset absolutely stunning. Hosts very responsive.

This is a wonderful cosy and serene location at the water. Linda is a fantastic host that makes you feel welcome from the first moment. Sitting at the water overlooking the water with the mountains on the background is amazing!

Bed and sheets were comfortable. Space was comfortable. Grateful to have a private spot to park the car, though mostly utilized public transport options like Water Taxi and bus system. If the temperature is in the 40s or 50s and you prefer cool temperatures, close all of the vents. It gets hot in the space between 7am and 830am. There's some great restaurants in the area to take advantage of too. highly recommend La Rustica and Cactus.

We stayed for two nights with our dog! Tom even had a water bowl out for her. Great central location for Mercer Island.

Great place to stay. Easy to find stuff do for everyone without having to get back in the car after a long day. Comfortable, clean, owners responsive with any questions prior to stay. Will definitely suggest location to others. Would recommend! Thank you!!!

Amazing stay! Amazing owners, and it’s so peaceful! More beautiful than even the photos! Enjoy!

The amount of beds and bedrooms were perfect for the bachelorette weekend we planned. The place worked well and was a great place for catching Lyfts into Ballard and Cap Hill for our planned activities. I highly recommend staying here for a big group. The neighborhood felt very residential and was close to the water.

My husband and my daughter and me stayed from Tuesday to Saturday for spring break. We rented a car from airport and it’s about hour and a half to Kingston. Tolls were $5.50 one way which had an attendant so you could pay. When we pulled up and walked in you are immediately hit with the spectacular million dollar views. It had a cute reading nook upstairs with views that you had to climb a ladder to get to. My daughter loved this space. We had three eagles land in the yard talking to each other. Short walk to end block and down a hill you are on private beach with dock you could walk onto. We saw seals from the beach so awesome I could stay there all day. The coffee was excellent and would love to take some home. The town of Kingston has the cutest coffee shop with great coffee and atmosphere. Port Townsend was about an hour away and was very cute and quaint with good food and shops. You can also take the puget sound boat to watch the whales from here. Loved our time ty

What an incredibly peaceful property. Absolutely stunning, the water crashing on the shore was magnificent.

amazing. my favorite Airbnb. absolutely beautiful location. kids loved it

We felt right at home at Olivia's place. She was quick to respond, helpful and friendly. We had a fun night stay in the house. It felt like home.

The cottage is very clean, beautifully decorated, fully stocked and in a great location. Jeanne is a very caring and attentive host. She made sure we had everything we needed. The previous reviews described this adorable property perfectly--a 5/5! We stayed at Jeanne’s cottage in July 2024 and loved everything about it so we stayed there again in November 2024. We look forward to our next stay.

Great place, great location, within walking distance to many points of interests, public transit right outside the door, essentials are provided so you don't have to pack extras, spectacular top floor view of the waterfront, quiet building, very clean, warm and comfortable "at-home away from home" experience, and the host is very communicative and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Lia & Miranda were very attentive hosts! Getting around the building requires some planning but for the location & space, it was a hidden gem!! We enjoyed the secured parking & one-of-a-kind view. The kiddie books in the living room were great for the kids. TVs in the living room and the bedroom are a plus. Would definitely book again next time I’m in Seattle!

We had an excellent stay! The location was absolutely amazing - close to Pikes, tons of great restaurants, breweries, and beautiful walking paths with breath taking views of the Sound. The condo was very clean, well-maintained, and had all the amenities we needed and then some. Jason and Courtney were super easy to communicate with, and check-in was a breeze. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Seattle.

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.

Not our first or last time staying at this Airbnb treasure! Thank you again for always being a top notch, consistently good stay.

Great location with lots of fun stuff to do.

This spot has a great view! It’s in a quiet neighborhood while still being close to restaurants, shops and a great Sunday Farmers Market. Plus, the inside was well-stocked and clean. It’s close to a train track and the hosts had thought ahead with sound machines in the bedrooms. I’d book again both for the tidy interior and beautiful views.

Serene, comfortable, clean space located within convenient walking distance to restaurants and waterfront. Perfect spot for our Kirkland visit.
