Visiting Family Vacation
Leaving town to visit family? Start your trip off right—whether you’re traveling solo or with your whole tribe in tow.
Dine: Nothing says family like a big Italian meal, and Grazie Ristorante is ready to stuff you and yours full of incredible Italian dishes—just like grandma nonna would do.
Sip: Grab a quick drink from an expert mixologist at Sharps Roasthouse—just steps away from the airport entrance, or a bubble tea from one of the 20+ locations on the Seattle Southside Bubble Tea Trail. Nothing says family tradition like a little friendly competition of trying to get the most check-ins and prizes!
Play: Prepare for a trip down memory lane at Waterland Arcade by playing some vintage arcade games, and show those kids that you still got it!
Explore: Discover the history and diverse communities that make up our area with a visit to the Highline Heritage Museum. Interactive exhibits, fascinating stories, and well-curated displays await to fascinate visitors of any age.
Shop: Experience an East-African bazaar right in Seattle Southside at the SeaTac International Mall, where a group of 21 vendors display beautiful handcrafted and specialty items. Love plants or know someone with a green thumb? Zenith Holland Nursery has been operating for over 100 years, so you know it’s got to be good. Current owner for the last four decades, Lyn Robinson, lovingly tends to countless plants from around the world at this local hidden gem.
Stay: Courtyard by Marriott Seattle Southcenter is the perfect jumping spot for your pre-departure adventures and the perfect place to come back to and rest before your flight.
