Amazing property for our large group!
We stayed here for a long weekend with our group of 7 adults and 1 infant. We absolutely loved this property, and it was the perfect place for our large group. We would love to come back again in a heartbeat! The three levels of the property worked out great, since our group included multiple families from all across the U.S. Having separation with the three levels for sleeping and also communal places to gather, like the game room and living room, worked out great for our group. Everyone had plenty of space, privacy, and separation, but also enough room for everyone to come together when desired. The backyard was wonderful and enjoyable, with beautiful landscaping and gardens, multiple levels, and various seating areas. We had dogs with us, and they loved exploring the backyard, too. The kitchen was well-stocked and spacious. The beds were all very, very comfortable. The house stayed cool enough for us, and we did not even need to use any of the fans we brought with us. The location was fantastic. Close to downtown Santa Cruz and to Capitola, and to all the other destinations we had on our list. The neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe. Josh was very helpful during our stay and before our stay as well. His responses were quick and helpful, and he made sure our stay was excellent! I truly can't say enough good things about this property. By far the best vacation rental we have stayed in!

Great proximity to the beach.
A 5 min walk to a great beach and some great restaurants. House is clean and spacious with some great landscaping. Different living spaces made it easy for our family with young kids. * they do have a pack and play, beach chairs and some limited sand toys. Overall, a great stay.

Beautiful house - 5 minute walk to beach
Our extended family of 9 rented this house for 4 nights. We couldn’t have been happier. The house is beautiful. Plenty of space. Beds are super comfy. We did a lot of cooking - the kitchen has everything you need. Best part - 5 minute walk to a beautiful beach. We’d walk down with our coffees in the morning and watch the surfers. Radiant heat floors in the master bathroom were a nice touch. Owner was super accessible. Zero complaints. Would definitely return.

Great location, as pictured
House is as pictured and a great location within walking distance to food and coffee. Loved being able to walk to the ocean. The top floor gets a little warm during the day but we opened windows to help. Great communication from the team and cookies and fresh flowers were a nice touch within the home!

We absolutely loved our stay in Santa Cruz! There were 10 adults and a couple of kids, and we all agreed that we wanted to come back next year! The mixture of individual space combined with comfortable gathering spots was perfect. Great deck, lovely fenced back yard, Great kitchen, short walk to the beach. Good communication with the owners and property manager. Really, it was the perfect vacation spot.

Beautiful and spacious beach house!
We loved everything about this home. The location was excellent with just a short walk to the beach. The home was large with plenty of sleeping options on different levels. The decor was gorgeous and inviting, and the deck was great for hanging out in the evening with a glass of wine. High end kitchen was very well stocked. The special touches of fresh hydrangeas and chocolate chip cookies were thoughtful and appreciated. We were lucky to find this on short notice and very pleased with the rental. Excellent communication with owner and property manager. Overall outstanding experience!
