About this property

Coastal Place - BEST location in Downtown

Welcome to Coastal Place!

Step into this exquisite custom home where natural light pouring in from surrounding windows illuminates a simple and open living area. 25 foot ceilings in the main living area create an airy and crisp environment that resounds through the whole building.

Walking into the fully equipped kitchen, you'll find stainless steel appliances, modern stove and oven, as well as bright stone countertops boasting generous space for preparing meals. Walk a few blocks and pick up some fresh Alaskan salmon and crab from 10th and M seafoods and enjoy them sitting at an immaculate 6 foot marble dining table. Help yourself to a complimentary waffle breakfast in the mornings with provided waffle grill, mixes, butter, syrup, etc...

New elegant furnishings, mounted flat-screen TV, and gas fireplace in the living room create the perfect setting to unwind. Kick back and relax, choosing a show from Netflix or HBO or your other steaming platform of choice as the fire warms you up. If you would prefer, there are a number of board games for your friends or family to enjoy including Settlers of Catan, cribbage and Apples to Apples.

When you are finally ready to rest your eyes, step into one of the bedrooms and sink into the new, soft and luxurious beds-

The master bedroom upstairs boasts high vaulted ceilings, a luxurious king sized bed (PURPLE brand) with relaxing decor and seating for two. Take a moment to raise the room-darkening shades and enjoy the mountain views from your bedroom before sinking into crisp, clean, white cotton sheets. The master bedroom also enjoys a spacious private bathroom and massive walk in closet where you will find a portable baby crib should you need one.

The guest bedroom downstairs offers an extremely comfortable pillow-top queen sized mattress in a dark wood Pottery Barn sleigh frame. In the closet you will find a luggage rack as well as plenty of storage and shelving for your personal belongings.

Need to sleep more? Entering the large upstairs loft you will find a full/twin bunk bed, a full-sized sleeper sofa as well as a twin trundle that pulls out from under the sofa. Additional inflatable mattress can be made available with advance notice.

Rented a car? Feel free to pull it into the garage.

Check out Alaska Bike Rentals less than a block away.

Housekeeping is available during your stay from the nearby hosts.

Best location in Anchorage
You cant beat this location in Anchorage! The house is impressive and beautiful. Hosts had the kitchen complelty stocked and I was able to cook big meals as there were 9 of us. There were extra pillows, blankets and even a couple of air mattresses. Everyone had their own sleeping area. Due to a missed communication I was unable to extend my stay another night but I would have loved to stay. Hosts are very responsive and helpful! There were even awesome toothbrushes with toothpaste built into the bristles! I loved those! My boys and their friends were very pleased with this home. When we do this again I will def be looking for this home again!

Great location with comfortable beds and everything we needed for a few days in Anchorage before heading out camping. Walking distance to the Costal Trail, bike rentals, restaurants, the Anchorage Museum, and shops. The property was clean but could probably use with a little updating soon!

Pre-Cruise Stay in Anchorage
We flew into Anchorage a couple of days ahead of getting on a cruise and were looking for a non-hotel accommodation. This house was very comfortable, allowing us to both gradually adjust to the time change from the East coast as well as being a central location to explore Anchorage. Highly recommend.

Flew in to Anchorage for a few days before taking the train to Seward for our cruise. This house was in a perfect location and we walked to everywhere we needed other than an Uber to the train. Highly recommend this house.

Alaskan Trip
We had a great stay, the house was clean and as described. Six adults stayed in the house and there was plenty of room. If you visit in the summer months bring an eye mask for sleeping. The house was in close enough proximity to walk to town.

Vacation
My wife, another couple and I stayed here for 7 days. It was exactly as advertised and clean. We come up for a once in a lifetime vacation and this house didn't disappoint. The only thing the house didn't have was a scale so we could wiegh our fish so I called Ryan and he brought his personal scale for us to use. If you looking to stay in Anchorage this is the place for you. It is located near the airport, stores and some great restaurants. We highly recommend this house and the owners.

Comfortable home in excellent location
Our group of six had a great visit in Anchorage at Coastal Place. The home is well furnished and comfortable. The kitchen is one of the best stocked with equipment and basics of any home we’ve rented. The location is perfect, walking distance to bike rentals, all of downtown, the coastal trail, a food market, etc.

Great location for walking downtown
We loved walking the Coastal Trail and saw sandhill cranes and moose. It’s an easy walk to numerous restaurants in town. The home is spacious and can accommodate a family easily. Plenty of parking and a most comfortable home! I love the large windows that let the sunshine in and great shades for night sleeping! Love it!

Great home base for Alaska activities
Best bakery in town is just across the street. The traffic noise and music were a distractingly loud for us-suburban types but we knew we couldn’t do better financially. No real view from the windows so not sure what qualifies the location as best. Trash can was so small we needed to take it out every hour we were up and about. Closest supermarket is in a sketchy neighborhood. Quick access to all the main roads so getting to local hikes and Costco was easy.

Nice Clean Property
The house was clean and well kept. It has all of the amenities needed and everything was functional. The location is close to downtown. It was quiet and we didn't have any issues with traffic or city noise. The house could probably do with some updating but it was a pleasant stay for our time in Anchorage. Communications with the owner was excellent. There were no issues and we enjoyed our visit.

What a place!!! :)
As a person who uses VRBO, I always worry about the place and if the pictures are valid. For this place, they definitely were. First, I would like to say that the place is wonderful. It was completely stocked with all the necessities that one would need for an extended time. The beds were VERY comfortable. Everyone in our group (ranging from ages 9-73) made a comment about it. The bathrooms even had some toiletries (like a toothbrush) included. The place was also very clean. The shades were also darkening so even though we only had a few hours of dark, the rooms were easy to fall asleep in. Another thing I always worry about is location. This location is AMAZING! You are a block from the ocean and a block from the heart of the city. If you want to see Anchorage and be able to walk it, this is perfect. There is also a bakery right across the street that is also amazing. This area is also completely safe (though I did not see any area in the downtown area that wasn't). In addition, the owners were very responsive. Any time I asked a question, they were quick to respond. We never had any problems while we were there. I can't reiterate how nice this place was. We stayed for a few days before we left for a cruise and were not disappointed that we made that decision. Much nicer than staying at a hotel (and actually a lot less expensive).

Wonderful home in downtown Anchorage!
Checking in and check out was easy. The property is in an excellent location where you can walk to tons of shops, restaurants, and breweries, but it's off the road enough that it's quiet and cozy. The house had everything we needed and was perfect for two couples and a 12 year old. The property owners were very quick to answer questions and helped us get the fireplace started when we couldn't figure it out. I can't say enough positive things about this place, I would highly recommend staying here!

About the host

Hosted by Ryan Groeneweg

Host profile image
I am a third generation Alaskan, born and raised here in Anchorage. My grandfather and grandmother came to this beautiful state in the late 50's and built many of the early homes in Anchorage. I enjoy hosting visitors and tourists and will do my best to help you during your stay. Please don't hesitate with any questions!

Why they chose this property

I purchased this home because of its historical significance, the exclusive location and the cavernous, open architecture. This is simply the closest house to downtown anchorage. The home is located between two of downtown anchorages most popular restaurants and is steps away from countless other downtown attractions including the coastal trail, a popular walking and biking trail that runs along the beautiful inlet.

What makes this property unique

You will not find another home like this one. This home has a truly unique location right on Coastal Place, allowing you to walk to most downtown attractions within minutes. In addition the large vaulted living room, fenced yard, spacious garage and historical significance further raise this home above its competition.
