About the host
Hosted by Christina Wilson
We are Northern California natives. Hubby was born and raised just across the bay in Salinas, CA. He grew up spending sand-filled days on the beach in Santa Cruz, and always dreamed of owning a home just steps from the ocean! We currently live just outside Sacramento, but consider Santa Cruz our home away from home. The kiddos are young adults, but when they were teens we decided a beach house was the perfect thing to keep the family close. Sand, surf, great restaurants, boat rides, boardwalk adventures, lazy days...many wonderful family memories were created on 25th Ave. The 25th Beach Retreat is perfect for families or a gang of friends. Being just 7 houses from the ocean, we spend many hours sitting on the second story patio watching the boats go by with a good book and an adult bev! We hope that our guests come to love our "Happy Place" just as much as we do!!!
Why they chose this property
East Santa Cruz, know as Pleasure Point, has a surfers laid-back vibe. We are close enough to the boardwalk, boating, downtown, shops, and great restaurants for fun-filled days, but far enough away to avoid the traffic and hustle and bustle of these busy areas. The 25th Beach Retreat is walking distance to all the shops and restaurants on 41st, in the heart of Pleasure Point, as well as the high-end village of Capitola. With the world renowned 26th Surf Beach just one block away, we are in a perfect location for families with littles, or those looking for more action on the water. The house comes with boogie boards and stand up paddle boards for those looking to get out on the water, as well as shovels and pails for those looking to spend time on the beach. Our quiet beach is a great place to spend the day!!!
What makes this property unique
The 25th Beach Retreat was initially set it up as a luxury get-away for ourselves, our employees and vendors, so the house is fully furnished with upscale furniture, linens, fixtures and finishes. We have a collection of framed vintage Santa Cruz prints, custom art pieces, comfy linens, and much more. We always tell our guests to bring their clothes and groceries, everything else you could want or need is ready for you at the 25th Beach Retreat!
