Warm and inviting rental in a fantastic location!

A definite winnner and a rental to which we’re looking forward to returning. Cozy without being cramped, and in a perfect location on the West Side, easy walk to Natural Bridges.

Great place for business and pleasure!

Our family of three had a great stay at West Cliff Hideaway! Just the right size - comfortable, nicely appointed and close to West Cliff Drive and all of the sites of Santa Cruz. Bonus was getting to know the terrific owners! We highly recommend this rental.

Relaxing Getaway

This is a beautiful location that is a perfect setup as a home away from home. The location is amazing and very close to so many beautiful walks and time to unwind and relax near the water. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and having a full kitchen at our use. Great place for a small family to visit and we would definitely return to this location!

Very nice!

I highly recommend Robin's West Cliff Hideaway! This place is perfectly located for surfing and checking out SC. It has everything you need in a nice neighborhood and it is clean and quiet. We would stay here again.

Wonderful spot to relax and enjoy

My sister and I had a wonderful Labor Day weekend at West Cliff Hideaway. The place was really nice and so quiet. The owner had everything ready for us. We were within walking distance to the beach and all the wonderful places to eat. We would definitely stay at West Cliff Hideaway again!!

Very nice time!

I had a great time staying at West Cliff Hideaway. The unit was clean and well-maintained, easy walking distance to the ocean. Parking was easy and there was a New Leaf (kind of a local Whole Foods) nearby where there were lots of good grocery options. It's a great launching station for adventures around the coast.

Loved this place!

If you are looking for a comfortable, clean, peaceful, well equipped, well organized apartment close to the ocean, good restaurants and shopping in the quiet part of Santa Cruz, look no further - you have found it. Our family of four, including two young adult children, was very happy with Robin's "hideaway" during our recent four night stay. Highly recommended!!

Awesome family getaway

We had a great time in Santa Cruz thanks to Robin and Bill's hospitality and clean and comfortable place. It is close to the beach in a lovely neighborhood. It's small but fully loaded with everything you need as a couple or small family. My family and I enjoyed walking to the beach and the boardwalk is a short drive away. We hope to come back and enjoy it again in the future.

Great getaway

What a wonderful accommodation. It is very cozy and welcoming. Everything that you need for cooking or going to the beach is there. I love having the barbecue to grill our steaks. There were lots of bath towels too! Just a wonderful place.

Fantastic Host, Property and Location

Our business reserved this property for 3 months for a visiting scientist and they raved about Robin and her property. She was communicative, attentive, and a terrific host that went above and beyond. We will definitely reserve this spot again for long-term stays or business visits. Thanks Robin!

Great Location and Host

This property was very comfortable and exactly as advertised. Robin was very helpful and accommodating. The location is superb. You can hear the crashing of the waves and the barking of the seals from the ocean a few blocked away. We walked and biked everywhere and found the Westside wineries and coffee shops great.

Wonderful Stay!

Spent the Labor Day weekend at West Cliff Hideaway for my girlfriend's birthday. Robin was quick to respond and set us up with the rental. The rental was very cozy and clean. We had absolutely no issues. I highly recommend.

West Cliff Hideaway

Great vacation rental! West Cliff Hideaway is an excellent place to stay for a week. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, yet just a couple blocks from the ocean and West Cliff Drive. Many restaurants and winery tasting rooms are close by. The apartment is charming with all the little extras that make such a difference. I'd certainly recommend it highly.

Wonderful Santa Cruz Getaway

We spent a month at West Cliff Hideaway. The location is fantastic - 2 blocks from the ocean in a lovely neighborhood. We were able to walk to the Pier and Boardwalk from our front door every day. Seeing the waves and surfers never grew old. The host, Robin lives in the main house and was always available for anything we needed. We rarely saw her so we always felt like we had privacy. The apartment is above a large garage behind the house and is accessed by a private entrance and a flight of stairs. Very comfortable and a fully stocked kitchen made for a perfect stay. Thank you Robin for sharing your home in such a beautiful location!

The Perfect Hideaway

This was a wonderful place for us. We are a retired couple and being able to walk 2 blocks to the beautiful Santa Cruz Beach was a huge plus. Restaurants, groceries and shops are within easy driving distance. As for the hideaway....it is absolutely perfect! The little touches Robin provides truly helps to make it feel like your home away from home. We highly recommend this getaway!

Awesome Spot on the Westside!

Well appointed apartment in an awesome neighborhood! Robin was a gracious host and the guest apartment/house was just as described. We wanted for nothing and enjoyed the quiet neighborhood on the westside (our favorite!). We enjoyed all that Santa Cruz has to offer during our stay here and wish we could have stayed longer!

Perfect quiet location

The property was beautifully landscaped. The rental had everything you might need! Robin was very sweet and helpful. Safeway is just down the street, great little pub close by as well. We were able to walk to and from the boardwalk though the neighborhood and along West Cliff Drive. Will certainly stay here again and would even bring along my small children who would fit perfectly on the futon in the living room!

Perfect hideaway

This was likely our last visit to Santa Cruz, at least for now, to attend the UCSC graduation. The location was super, with a nearby shortcut to the beautiful West Cliff views, but close enough to campus to help our son pack up 4 years of stuff! Our host was amazing and even offered to fill the fridge when she learned our flight in was delayed.The home was clean and had everything we could need, including a lovely private courtyard that was the envy of my work Zoom meeting. If/when we return, this will be our spot!
