"We were very happy with the staff and the condition of the room. Nice and close to the beach. Walked there in about 5 minutes. Best hotel we have stayed at considering the many times we have visited. The only negative thing about the hotel was no breakfast with my stay like most hotels."

"The location is the biggest asset of this home—it’s so stunning and hard to beat. For 4 couples this rental worked out well. We cooked a lot and the kitchen had pretty much everything we needed. We loved being able to walk to the Swift Street breweries and restaurants and Marianne’s ice cream on Fair Ave was such a treat. Everyone agreed we’d love to stay here again!"

Santa Cruz Beach Bungalow | Walk to Beach | Garden

Santa Cruz Beach Bungalow | Walk to Beach | Garden

10/10 Excellent
"The house is small but cozy with lots of natural light. The second half bath and shower outside was a welcome surprise. Some things that we missed was a barbecue, and an umbrella to provide shade. Inside there isn’t a microwave but there is space for one. There was a tiny pot and a huge pot. A medium pot would have been nice. We used the instant pot. A medium cutting board would have been good too. The location is really convenient to the Safeway, Garfield playground and to the Westcliff bike path. The boardwalk and pier is a short drive away."
