The Marathon Historic apartment was a perfect base for our time in Seward and the Kenai Fjords. The apartment is very comfortable and homey, clean, well-equipped, quiet, and the location is excellent for walking to the waterfront, restaurants, shops, and the Alaska Sealife Center. Shelly provided clear instructions for check-in and many great recommendations for restaurants and attractions. My husband and I enjoyed our stay and hope to return some day!

Wonderful stay in Seward!

My husband and I were visiting Seward from Anchorage for an impromptu fishing trip, and were lucky enough to find this listing! Adorable apartment, easy to locate, close to everything, and the bed was SO comfy. As someone with back issues I really appreciated that. Shelly was very responsive and helpful, and even let me know we could check in early. I would absolutely recommend staying here anytime you visit Seward!

The unit is cute, comfortable, and convenient! Shelly and Matt have done a great job of decorating and making sure guests have everything they need from towels and kitchenware to lots of drawers, hooks, and other spaces to put your things. The location is perfect, within walking distance to shops and restaurants, and a short drive to the harbor if you take a boat tour of the Kenai Fjords. The host provided a list of local restaurants, and we had the best meal of our trip so far at The Cookery, thanks to her list. 10/10 would recommend this place!

Very cute place to stay. Amazing communication from the owners. Plenty of “may need” items available just in case. (Ziplock bags, foil, Q tips, hair dryer etc)It was on the warm side even with the heat off. Wish we had this kind of insulation at our house. Upstairs neighbors kept us up until 12:30am walking but not something that can be helped. Would definitely stay here again. It’s close to the water, shops, restaurants, Sealife center and bus stops.

Cozy and Convenient Place in the Heart of Seward

This little apartment is exactly what I wanted for a night in Seward. It is located conveniently right in the middle of downtown only a few blocks away from the waterfront, the SeaLife Center, and the restaurants of downtown. The host was extremely communicative and a pleasure to deal with. If you are interested in a cozy spot to return to after a day out and about I would highly recommend staying here.

We LOVED our stay at Marathon by the Sea - the bed was so extremely comfortable and cozy. Great location- we walked a block to the courthouse to get married! Well stocked with kitchen gadgets and serve ware, as well as extra blankets and towels. Host was so very kind and promptly responded whenever we reached out. We most definitely recommend!

Quaint and Convenient

Great option for a few days. The apartment is an easy walk to the water, the Sea Life Center, the brewery, and downtown restaurants. Internet speed is great for making travel/excursion arrangements and entertainment. Everything was clean and welcoming. We enjoyed the museum located in the library and were able to also see the movie about the 1964 earthquake--shown once a day for a separate fee. Highly recommend the movie.

Great space for our needs

This was a perfect place for our short stay. Right in the middle of downtown, this small apartment gave us a place to drop our bags and explore the town. It is perfect for two people and a bit tight for four (especially with two teenage boys at the end of a long trip!), but this was no surprise given the description of the property on the platform. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for a quick meal and coffee. We met the host on the way in who was gracious with his time and the information he shared about the area. The host was communicative and kind from start to finish. We would gladly stay here again when back in downtown Seward.

This small but lovely and we’ll-stocked apartment was perfect for our 3 night stay. The manager, Shelly, did a great job of communicating and even sent a long list of things to do and good places to eat. We especially liked that it was walking distance to many attractions and only 2 blocks from a free shuttle stop to take us to many others.
