Many tourists are drawn to the bustling seaport city of Seattle. This destination isn’t just an urban gem - it’s surrounded by majestic mountains and the sea. Space Needle, the most iconic landmark here, has an observation deck and a rotating restaurant. Puget Sound, on the other hand, will amaze you with its breathtaking views of snowcapped peaks. Other things you can do include meeting producers of local fare at Seattle’s original farmers market, Pike Place Market, which was established in 1907. There are also ski resorts and wineries that are worth checking out. Not to mention a range of great accommodations, from short-term rentals to luxury hotels. If you’re planning to host a party or a special event in the city, however, you will find many great venues also available. Read on to find the best party houses to rent for one night in and around Seattle.
Event to look out for:
- Seattle is going to be one of the host cities for the FIFA World Cup 2026. According to Seattle magazine, this event will definitely bring a lot of tourist attention to the city. Don't miss attending this grand event if you're a football fan!
Travel tip:
- Before your visit, make sure to check the state's official website for travel advisories and alerts. You'll find information about wildfires, road closures, on-going constructions, and more on the site.

What guests are saying about their stay:
“This VRBO worked perfectly for our family and friends while we attended our daughter’s wedding in Seattle. Our two older children, their spouses and two three year old grandchildren stayed with us in the main house and our friends stayed in the MIL apartment, which has two separate bedrooms, a full bathroom, kitchen and a separate entrance from the main house. The multiple bedroom configurations, bathrooms and common spaces provide significant flexibility to support groups of various compositions. The kitchen is large and well equipped. There is a very nice washer (we all had washing machine envy) and dryer…” - by Douglass B.

It’s a 5 BR but was a little cramped when you fill all of the bedrooms due to only having 2 bathrooms. Very strict on noise rules as it’s in a neighborhood - definitely understandable. Easy to communicate with owners. Go around the corner and get a Cubano sandwich. Delish!” - by Jessie B.
