We are Greg and Arlene Carpenter and we've been operating Seward Waterfront Lodging since it opened in 1989. We offer casual, comfortable lodging at the best location in Seward! Sitting directly on Resurrection Bay, great views abound from the front glass-enclosed solarium, the Deluxe rooms, or our hot tub. We are adjacent to the Alaska Sea Life Center, and only one block from the historic downtown where you'll find many family-owned restaurants and quaint shops. Just minutes from the harbor for fishing charter and cruise ship departures. more » « less

Just happened to stumble upon this cozy little place looking for a place to lay our heads, frustrated at all the cookie cutter hotels being sold out. We were very fortunate to have found it. We ended up staying 3 nights. Owners Greg and Arlene were so warm and friendly. The view was magnificent from the solarium. Breakfast is served... more

We loved our stay with Seward Waterfront lodge. The location is perfect and its very much close to Seward Sealife Centre. We stayed in one of the 2 rooms which overlook the beautiful scenery of Seward. The room is clean and cosy. Greg and Arlene are wonderful hosts. They are very friendly and helpful and gave us good trip suggestions.... more

Our sincere intent is to provide a clean, comfortable, and functional room to our guests...

This bed and breakfast is run by a charming couple and is in a perfect location--on the waterfront adjacent to the Sea Life Center. There were a few concerns however. Our room smelled more like a grandmother's basement than a clean and fresh hotel room. The other problem is that the two mornings I ate breakfast there I found hair... more
