Great spot

We lived in this property for 40 days during our transfer to Anchorage. Very comfortable for a family of 5. The property has everything you need, plus off street parking for three vehicles and of course the hot tub. The hosts are great communicators and go above and beyond to ensure your stay is perfect. Would stay again in a heartbeat. 10/10!

Wonderful Home

Southside Serenity was a wonderful home! They provided so many additional comforts. We sincerely appreciated all of the small details from the cute hot tub slippers to a fully stocked pantry full of kitchen amenities. Our family had a wonderful time in Anchorage and an amazing stay at Southside Serenity. Thank you!

Home away from home!

We enjoyed our stay for nine days. Communication with Greg was easy and thorough. There were some internet issues that Greg got on top of until it was repaired. Greg was able to find a stroller for us to use during our stay and that was very helpful with our toddler. I put in a last minute request for late check-out and the host was very accommodating. The house was large enough to give each of us our own space and is well stocked to feel at home away from home. Would definitely recommend as this is a quiet and safe location.

Way better than expected! The photos don’t do it justice!

Everything from start to finish was amazing! The check in process is seamless and simple. It’s close to shopping and food. The host went above and beyond. They left us a play pen, high chair for my son and a stroller. It was the first time we had a holiday since COVID and I have two small children. We stayed here with my husband’s brother and his family and the space was perfect for us. The beds were actually comfortable which have not always been an experience of mine with VBRO. There were detailed instructions for everything thing in the house which makes taking care of the property when you are there so much easier. The neighbours were absolutely lovely. I will rent here every time we are in anchorage.
