Great little apartment!

Being a bit outside of the main strip gave us a whole different experience of Santa Cruz than just the tourist spots, which was really lovely. The apartment slept 7 of us comfortably and had everything we needed. We arranged airport transfer through Pilar and Joseph and it was such a huge help to have them meet us at the airport! Highly recommended.
