We stayed for 3 nights during the last week of March. We were a party of 3 adults. We each had our our private sleeping space and plenty of room during our stay. The beach at the end of the street has a spectacular view of impressive waves. There are two great sandy beaches within a 5 minute stroll. We could walk to restaurants and a small market for groceries. Our host/property manager was very accommodating and friendly.

We returned last night to sub-zero temperatures and about 6 inches of snow after 16 days in sunny California. We thoroughly enjoyed your house. It worked out well for our family and the location is superb. The deck out front got a lot of use as we absorbed as many rays as possible... Thanks for returning the deposit so promptly. I really appreciate not having to think abot it.

We loved it.Thank you from all of us.

Thanik you for allowing us to enjoy the charms of this bungalow. We felt ourselves slowing down and getting in the natural rhythms of the natural beauty of Santa Cruz. Thank you for making our stay comfortable and allowing us a girls weekend to reconnect, laugh and unwind. Relaxed~~
