Beautiful property and location

The house is wonderful and we were very comfortable and happy with our stay. We couldn’t check in on time because it was still being cleaned and we were not provided with a late checkout which doesn’t seem fair. We would definitely stay again in low season because the high season rates are out of our price range.

Location location location!

This home met all our expectations and more! The location is exactly what we were looking for. We could walk out the door and had everything we could want: the beach, the pier, the boardwalk, and all the restaurants and shops we could ask for. The house was set up perfectly for our family. There are beach toys in the garage for our use, kitchen fully equipped, and the views were amazing. The beds were comfortable and plenty of seating. We could have easily had multiple families here.

Will plan future trips around this house's availability

We absolutely loved the location! The beds were comfortable. There's even a drawer full of toys and games. Everything we needed for the beach was provided. It was perfect for our little family but has TONS of room for us to bring friends next time. It's affordable and comfortable. The only thing was the dryer didn't seem to be heating fully enough to dry our laundry, but that's an easy fix!

Imagine your own little island but it’s a stone’s throw from everything! We came to Santa Cruz to celebrate our son’s 16th birthday and had a blast, even with rainy days. The layout of the house is perfect for a big group and the house is stocked with everything you could need. Host is so nice and Johnny-on-the-spot with communication. Will definitely seek out this house again.

Our stay was perfect from start to finish!

We rented the house for a weekend family getaway. Cody & Grace with the management co. were amazing. They responded quickly to my emails and were very helpful & thorough with details. The house and views are beyond breathtaking. The house is beautifully designed & decorated. It's kept very clean & the beds were very comfortable. I highly recommend this home to anyone who will appreciate & take care of it so it's just as beautiful for our families next trip there!

Sweet 16 celebration

We brought our daughter and her friends to Santa Cruz to celebrate her 16th birthday. The house was perfectly located so the girls could walk to the beach/boardwalk/wharf. The house was beautiful, clean and had great views. The kitchen table only seats 4 (on the main kitchen level) which is challenging when you have a household of 9...but we made it work! We had an absolutely lovely time and hope to return in the future!

Walkable and Lots of Space

The place is exactly as pictured with great ocean views and lots of space with an upstairs and downstairs living room. Lots of walkable restaurants and basically across the street from the pier. Very convenient! Plenty of cookware and dishware to make yourself at home. It is on a one way street so it took a loop or two to find it for the first time. Just look for the blue house! Other than that no complaints whatsoever.

Graduation

It’s was a great place for our family to come and celebrate our graduate. The proximity to the beach, boardwalk, rides and pier was perfect. We also walked to market area and had some great meals and entertainment. The Ideal Restaurant across the street was great food and fast and did a great job accommodating our group of 8. We also ordered in from the Mission Street BBQ.

Fabulous!

We enjoyed our stay tremendously. The home was spacious and tailored for several people to all have their own space if they chose. The open kitchen allowed us to all to cook and mingle freely. We opened the doors to the balcony to see and hear all that Santa Cruz has to offer. We parked our vehicles and walked everywhere for 4 days. Thank you!!

Location, location, location

Property is in an awesome (albeit not very private) spot right near the boardwalk and wharf. Clean, spacious, and well laid out, we had a great time. One note-. There is a beach parking lot for 20 or so cars almost directly below the bottom deck. This lot was CLOSED when we stayed due to construction, but if it were open I could see some people feeling a lack of privacy, particularly on the lower level

Amazing location

This property is within steps of the beach and the wharf. Walking distance to the boardwalk. House is spacious and clean and has every amenity/tool in the kitchen (except for a pizza cutter). Grocery stores are a short drive away. I brought my daughter and 4 of her friends here for her 16th birthday and it couldn't have been better!
