These affordable suites are ideal for a family of four or five. The deluxe rooms hold two queen beds, a sleeper sofa in the living room and a fully equipped kitchen, complete with refrigerator, microwave, oven, stovetop, kitchen sink and enough dishes and utensils to cook up a storm. On top of that, the second floor rooms have balconies with wonderful views of Kachemak Bay. You get a lot of value for a reasonable price.
The Windjammer Suites are in a quiet neighborhood a few blocks from the beach. You’re also a five-minute walk from the Alaska Islands and Ocean Visitor Center, a great place to begin your trip to the area. Kids can learn about the marine life that make this part of Alaska so special. From the Center, follow a short trail through the trees, across the wetlands and down to Bishop’s Beach. At lunchtime, head to Two Sisters Bakery, a Homer landmark, for the healthiest food in town. Homer is known as the Halibut Fishing Capital of the World, so you might want to book a fishing charter and try your luck at catching halibut, salmon or rockfish. With its low rates and family-friendly amenities, the Windjammer Suites make for a good base from which to explore Homer on your big Alaska vacation.
