Wouldn’t stay in downtown, it’s getting pretty dicey. South Anchorage is quite nice. As is waterfront.
If you have questions feel free to post and I’ll let you know what I think of the options.

Girdwood is the best place.

Girdwood is nice, though doubtful you’ll get accommodations there on this short notice this time of year

How far from Anchorage is it? There are some places available there.

It’s not that far. The Spa at Alyeska is nice. Resort ski town. 30-40 min away

Alyeska to Anchorage Airport is 50-60 min without traffic. No way it’s ever 30 min. I’ve driven it many times.

You must drive slow! I can get from Girdwood to Eagle River in 60 min.

It doesn’t matter. Good luck finding a place this late in the game

There seems to still be decent availability, but maybe the better places are

I’d get a VRBO/airbnb outside of Anchorage like Seward or Palmer

Seward is 2 hours away, so tough to do if you’re going to do stuff in Anchorage.

Agreed. Alaska is best when not in Anchorage

Best part of living in Anchorage was that it was only 15 minutes from Alaska 😅

Go rent bikes from Pete at Downtown Bicycle and ride the coastal trail. Eat at South and Moose’s Tooth.
