All good. Property was easy access and comfortable. It is right on a main street, so keep that in mind if that’s an issue for you. Otherwise, short walk to the beach and great access to all of Santa Cruz.

Late Summer Stay

Everything was as described, and the private back patio was lovely. We liked being able to walk to the Marina and beaches and only a short drive to all the places we needed to go.

This is a great spot! It does get pretty warm in the evenings without air conditioning, but there were fans provided. Otherwise it was perfect, spotlessly clean and a great location.

The Perfect Getaway

Wonderful place to stay. The property had everything we needed for my family and I. Lots of kitchenware, adequate toiletries, and very comfortable beds. Checking in and out was a breeze and the best part was being 2 minutes away from the beach! I highly recommend this property& would love to return!

Great remodeled house, close to beach!

We had a great stay at this newer remodeled house. Although we did not use the kitchen, it was designed well and done with nice finishes. Close to the beach and even a small market just two lots away was convenient to keep driving to a minimum.
