  We stayed at the property in October when the weather in the bay area is probably at its best. The house was clean, big and had one of the best ocean views you could imagine. The owners have taken very good care of the place and the pictures on the website are very true to the actual property. I would definitley recommend this place and already have to several friends.

  Jim, Eagle Idaho. If you want it quiet go to the mountains! For me it was great!! Some waves have a constant roar and your ears ring days after you leave, but not here, it's more like thunder then quiet. I sleep perfect, It Was Great!!! The beach is less than 20 steps from the house. Very little foot traffic in front of the house because of the rocky point to the water to the south. Many suffers in front to watch! The house is perfect for all ages. The up stairs master, is sound proof to any down stairs noise with the door closed. The out side room away from house is perfect privacy! The grand kids are 16 to 12 and LOVED the house, beach, waves, and amusement park,we are the greatest grand parents ever! ( TODAY - ha! ) Thank you Tara! for making us look so good! Jim and Stephanie.

  This place was fabulous. The house was perfectly setup. The master bedroom was huge and the view was unbelievable. The deck looked out over the ocean and every one who on more than one occassion was caught standing and saring out to sea. The location was perfect for long walks along the cliffs to downtown where there is a Shoprite, malls, movies and you are in the middle of 2 wharves, the Capitola and Sata Cruz..Access to the beach is about 4 houses down from this house.. Easy to access

  Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children.

  Owner response: Future guests, Access to the beach is also directly in front of the home with stairs and hand rail but there are times that the tides come up to the bottom of the stairs as we have mentioned. Owners

  One word sums this rental - AMAZING!! We had 6 people in our group, ranging in ages from 3 to 67 for a 5 day stay. The house was perfect for each one of us. Each person who walked around the corner to see the view for the first time literally stopped in their tracks as it is so beautiful! There is so much to do in the area, but we really wanted to just stay at the house and soak up the view and beach! One evening from the house we observed more than 25 sailboats in the regatta, a kayaker, several surfers and even a seal swim past the house! The furnishings, view and amentities are as they are described, and the owner was superb to work with. I would highly, highly recommend!

  We celebrated our 30th anniversary. Our adult children and mother in law joined us. They each enjoyed their private rooms and we loved the master suite. The kitchen and living room was great for gathering and playing games and watching movies. The view is amazing. We left the blinds open the whole time. We saw otters, dolphins and even a whale. My kids and I built a sand castle during low tide and made bets when it would be destroyed during high tide. We enjoyed the deck and watched the surfers all day. My mother in law has always gone to beaches in So Cal and she thought Santa Cruz was so much better. We look forward to returning for future vacations.

  We LOVE this house! We have rented it twice for our annual couples getaway and absolutely love it. Each year 4 couples (childhood friends) get together for a kid-free weekend. Our original intent was to visit a new location each year, but we loved this house so much we had to repeat the trip. Fantastic location to both SC or Capitola. Great beach a stone's throw away. It does not get much more Oceanfront than this...waves crashing at your very own deck. Tara and family are fabulous to deal with and the prices cannot be beat. We even discussed NOT reviewing the house, because we didn't want anyone else to find out about our little gem. =) This house will not disappoint, highly recommend it!

  We've stayed here twice with a group of friends. Each time we loved the house! When we stayed in, enjoyed watching the waves, sea life, and sunsets. The kitchen/living-room/eating area overlooks the deck and ocean. So great for group meals. When we went out, we could walk to the beach or down to Capitola. So beautiful and fun! Even easy drive down to the Boardwalk. Looking forward to staying again!

  We spent a delightful week at this great home. We have already recommended it to friends for their family. The house is perfectly set up for privacy in each room and has a great gathering area for family time. The view is fantastic and was enjoyed in all the different weather we experienced. It is a great spot for sun, fog, rain or wind!! The house was equipped with anything you might need for time at the beach. After reading about it and then seeing it the listing was very accurate and the owner was wonderful about quickly responding to any questions and providing all necessary info. We can't wait to be there again!

  I used to rent a different house every year, but now I just go back to this incredible home every year, because the views and sounds of the ocean are amazing, and the comforts of this home are unbeatable. Front row seats for porpoises, seals, cranes, pelicans; endless entertainment watching all the surfers and sailboats and kayaks; you will encounter fantastic tidepools with anemones and crabs etc as you walk along the beach at low tide. This place is paradise and has everything you could ever need provided.

  Perfect setting, perfect home, perfect location! Can you tell we fell in love with this place and can’t wait to return? My daughter was married in Capitola last month and we rented this place to spend the week together (we all live out of town). We loved it from the get-go …from our jaw-dropping moment when we walked into the house & took in the breathtaking ocean view, to the morning walks/runs on the beach & surrounding neighborhoods, to sitting on the deck in the evenings watching the seals, dolphins and otters cruise by (not sure if this is the norm, but it was our special treat each evening). The house is equipped with everything we could ever need and more, TVs in every room that we rarely used as the ocean was our theater for most the week. My daughter dressed for her wedding in the master suite upstairs, a truly surreal moment with her in her wedding dress with what appeared to be the whole Pacific Ocean as her background. Memories that will fill our hearts forever. Thank you.
