    Wonderful Location and good communication with the property manager. We stayed at this property one year ago and it was definitely cleaner this year except for many cigarette butts in flower pots on both porches even though this is a non-smoking property. The sea shanty is close to historic downtown restaurants and bakeries and is very quiet at night. A short walk to the beach and a short drive to the Homer spit makes this a good place to stay.

    Connie is flexible and accommodating. Four adults came from out of town to visit family. Our 8 yr old AK granddaughter stayed with us each night and loved being with us. We ate out for breakfast/brunch/lunch meals but cooked all of our meals in the kitchen for us and our AK family. A little crowded for 10 of us, but we made it work and had a great time! Will definitely stay there again when we return.

    Check in was super easy. The Sea Shanty was perfect for an Alaska 'staycation'. Wish we could have stayed longer.

    The Sea Shanty was the perfect place for our family of 5 adults. There’s room for everyone. The place is spacious, sparkly clean, and the location is unbeatable. So close to town, Two Sisters, Bishops Beach, and a short drive to the spit. The furnishings are basic, in great clean and working condition -all you need to make for a comfortable stay. The upstairs patio has a beautiful view of the ocean and both upstairs and downstairs patio are perfect to sit, hang out and have your coffee or share a meal. Enjoyed our stay thoroughly! Can’t wait to come back!

    My best friend (from the lower 48), husband and I (from Wasilla, Alaska) stayed two nights. It was perfect for us. The location could not have been better. Walking distances to several wonder places to eat. Homer is a wonderful town and enjoyed visiting again. The Sea Shanty was extremely clean. Would stay there again! Thank you

    Two couples were very comfortable. Upstairs was a nice deck to enjoy the evening. Living room was upstairs too with a TV but we didn’t really utilize that with a great view preferred.
