We had a great time! The accommodations were beautiful and we found everything just as advertised. And what a beach! We golfed all around the area and did some sight-seeing in Santa Cruz. Wish we could have spent more time on the beach! Next time.....

Hello Cris, We had an absolutely amazing time! It was so hard to come back to reality after 8 beautiful days at the beach! The house looked great!! Everything worked properly. We cooked almost every night and found the kitchen to be stocked with all the necessities. The BBQ was great. We had gorgeous weather for 6 of the 8 days. We watched whales from the deck for about an hour on Friday directly in front of us and so close to shore. Truly astonishing to see since I have only seen whales in Alaska. I can't say one bad thing about our stay...well except having it end! We look forward to making this an annual tradition as our son said it perfectly... "Wow I think we should do this every year." Thank you again, Dominique

A lovely, lovely home right on the beach. Perfect in every way. The master bedroom bed looks out at the beach, and we so enjoyed the sunrise. We brought wood for bonfires and watched the sunset. We had family at the beach enjoying 70+degree weather on Thanksgiving weekend! How amazing is that? This home has everything you need to entertain. We will be back. Thanks so much for a very restful, long weekend filled with family, friends and the best beach in northern California.

We stayed here over Thanksgiving week when my 3 kids were on vacation (12, 9 and 8 yrs old). We were in heaven at Hello Beachhouse! The home is immaculate and exactly as described. The view and location on this beautiful stretch of beach takes your breath away the second you walk in the door. We were able to cook a complete Thanksgiving dinner for our family of 5 in the kitchen and had all the amenities needed there to do it. I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable the beds and even the great Pottery Barn sofa bed downstairs were. We zipped over to Capitola for an afternoon and had lunch on the Santa Cruz pier the next day. The kids collected tons of sand dollars on the beach, saw dolphins and just thouroughly enjoyed having (nearly) a private beach to themselves. My husband and I loved waking to the sould of the ocean every morning and the sunset on the deck. We can not WAIT to go back to Hello Beachhouse!! (Chris, the owner, was also wonderful to work with! Easiest and clearest rental transaction ever. Thank you for sharing your home with us!)

Family Fun at Hello Beachhouse

For a Family of Five, Hello Beachhouse comes alive. We've been there twice, and it's extremely nice. The kids are all ages, three, nine, and fifteen, but none inbetween. Easy access to the beach, lets them come and go as they please. They're easy to watch from the balcony, especially when there's a nice breeze. We'll go again, that much is certain. See you next summer. It's really fun.

Most Perfect Weekend Getaway!

Review Submitted: 04/26/11
As we drove down from Tahoe to the La Selva beach house, we talked of all the plans we had made for our 3 day weekend. Boardwalk, dinner in Capitola, clothes shopping etc. However, once we arrived and saw the location of the property, the long stretch of unobstructed beach and breathtaking ocean views, we decided we weren't going anywhere. This location can't be beat. You can hear the waves from the bedroom, from the deck, even from the kitchen while cooking dinner. The stereo and tv system are so user friendly, and the outside speakers were a very nice touch. After enjoying a picturesque sunset BBQ, you can meander down the walkway to enjoy a bonfire and glass of wine. Absolute perfection. Only problem is that we didn't book it for a week. Next time we'll know better, and I can't wait until next time.............

One word really describes this place, WOW. We felt at home the moment we walked in the door. Very comfortable place, incredibly comfortable beds, great kitchen, BBQ on the deck. And the location is perfect, over looking the best beach in Santa Cruz. We loved the easy beach access and falling asleep to the sound of the ocean at night. Great owners who were wonderful to work with as well. Can't recommend this place highly enough if you are staying in the Santa Cruz area.

WOW, what an amazing weekend we had at Hello Beachhouse! From our first impression online to our next experience as we drove to the beautiful location of the condo, to the last day of our trip...we LOVED every minute we were there! The condo is CLEAN, CRISP and was EXACTLY what we were looking for! Had every amenity needed and we look forward to our next visit. We won't look anywhere else! Sad we had to leave!

I think about the view at Hello Beachhouse often. We've stayed here twice and have enjoyed ourselves completely. The home is lovely and clean. The beach is right below you and it's relaxing and not too crowded. Hello Beachhouse is our favorite getaway.

If you are looking for a wonderful place to stay on the water near Santa Cruz, with all of the comforts of home and more, stay here. Sit on the deck and be amazed by the unobstructed ocean view or take the few steps to the beach for a bonfire or beach walk. I have stayed here several times and at different times of the year. Each visit it just gets harder to leave. Golf is a 5 minute drive, shopping and restaurants are 15 minutes. Relaxing, beautiful and fun is how I describe Hello Beachouse.

relaxing and comfortable stay during US Open 2010

This was a great place to stay during our vacation to the US Open 2010. It was a 30 minute drive to Carmel/Monterey -without traffic, however we were there during a major event. It is nearby Santa Cruz but sheltered from traffic noise. It was a comfortable place to come back from walking around Pebble Beach.

Missing Hello beach house!

We rented the Hello beach house 2 summers ago. Every summer we rent a beach house somewhere in the US for our family of five. We still talk about our trip to this house and from time to time I still check the availability for a return visit. Hello beach house the absolute perfection. From the new modern but comfortable crate and barrel furniture to the sound of the waves the ocean air, the linens, the old book collection to browse thru. I could go on and on.The location is the very best! Just steps away from the beach. Our three kids loved it and are still talking about this home. We did have a chance to go back a few months later for a weekend trip. The owner was so kind and easy to work with. I am writing this today because I have yet to find a beach house so perfect for us. We do like to try different parts of the country but I just assume stay here. You will love this place and never want to leave. I hope to return too.Thank you ! Tracy and family
