Felt like we were part of the neighborhood instead of just vacationers

The house had a great layout for enough privacy and gatherings. So comfortable & clean. Amazing beds. And, the neighborhood was great. We used the bikes to ride everyday - along the beach, to Verve Coffee and Capitola. Just a fantastic location and space. Thank you!

Great home

We had a wonderful time. The location was perfect for beach and food access. We split our time between the Boardwalk and the Beach. House was clean, organized and easily accessible. The only thing I would suggest is don’t sleep on the trundle bed with your toddler if you are an adult. It isn’t for tall people lol

Great little spot by the beach

The location is truly remarkable. It's less than a 2 minute walk to the beach, or to walk along Pleasure Point! The garage is fully stocked with everything you could need at the beach - bikes, boards, sand toys, towels...you name it. The downstairs is a private suite with double doors to the hot tub. The main living area is upstairs with a kitchen, bathroom and two adjoining bedrooms. This was plenty of space for four adults and two small children - the trundle bed was a plus for my kiddos. This is very functional and was great, but note that it's not a luxury spot. The kitchen is equipped but quite small - it would be difficult to prepare large meals and is a squeeze if two people are in it together. The main bathroom is also quite small, as are the upstairs bedrooms.

About 2 blocks from the cliffs where you can watch 100's of surfers and a 1 1/2 from a beach where you can relax, swim or stroll on the beach. We enjoyed the bikes too. The house was clean and accommodated our family of perfectly. We have 3 teens and there was more than enough space for everyone. Steve was wonderful at responding and gave us great tips for activities and where to eat. So appreciative!

What a find! the house is great and has everything you need for a stay in Santa Cruz - including bikes, wetsuits and beach chairs. Kitchen is well equipped as well. The house is about 3 blocks from a great surfing spot - we made out way every morning to watch the surfers. 3 blocks the other direction is a good beach. Nothing bad to say about this rental. Thanks Steve!

Family Fun

This is a two story house just off East Cliff Drive but still quiet. Only two blocks to a neighborhood market, short walk to Pleasure Point and 5 minutes to Moran beach. The primary bedroom is on the first floor and has room for a (rented) crib. The primary bathroom shower is small but clean and nicely tiled. The stairs are fairly steep and they have a child gate but we couldn't figure it out. The small bedroom with the trundle worked fine for my 3 & 4 year old grandkids but when pulled out it took up most of the room. They didn't care! The upstairs queen bedroom has access to the bathroom and the deck. The garage is loaded with bikes, sand wagon, toys, etc. The bikes definitely got used. Great stay, great location.

This property was perfect for our trip. The location is close to everything, from Capitola Village to several beaches that are easily walkable from the home. The home is well equipped from the kitchen to the bikes. The beds were very comfortable and the living room offered tons of space.

Such a gem!

Our group of friends that have been together for 20+ years gathered here for the weekend and had a blast! The location is perfect. 5 minute walk to the beach and even shorter walk to a cute general store. The house is warm and inviting and stocked like a mix of a house and a hotel. The owner was super kind and helpful with recommendations. The hot tub was perfect for the rainy day that we had. The master bedroom is giant and super comfortable! I have saved this listing to use it again in the future and highly recommend it to anyone wanting a nice relaxing time in a welcoming environment.
