About this property

Beautiful 5 bedroom home just steps from the beach

We love this home! We've had so many great family memories here and we are excited to be able to share it with others! It has plenty of space inside with a large deck and a beautiful back yard. It's just 11 houses away from the best family beach in all of Santa Cruz and there is a warm outdoor shower for when you return home.

The house was perfect! Great location, very responsive host. The space & location were exactly what we needed for our family. Easy walk to the beach & several cafes. We truly enjoyed our stay. And the yummy cookies when we checked in were a lovely surprise.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful, comfortable home! Our group of 8 chose Santa Cruz for our annual friendship reunion destination this year, and we all decided this may be the best vacation home we have stayed in. The location and quiet neighborhood are great! It’s an easy walk to the beach, and a short drive to all attractions we wanted to visit in the area. Our host Josh was very responsive to my questions prior to our arrival and his property manager was available and helpful as well during our stay. We had everything we needed and then some. We would definitely like to return to this property!

Great location in a quiet neighborhood. Short walk to beach, market & harbor is nearby with coffee place & restaurants. The house had great gathering spaces for meals; big dining room table, & big table out on the back deck. Kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans & appliances. We barbecued every night with room for 10 around the table . Owner was responsive & very helpful.

Great house for a few families

We had a reunion of 3 families (6 adults and 6 kids from 7-11) and this house worked out great for us. We loved having the large deck area for meals and the two separate living rooms. The beach was just a block away and we walked down to watch the sunset. We’d definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful time at Josh's house in Santa Cruz! There was plenty of space and amenities for our group of friends to comfortably stay for a couple of nights! Josh's communication was on point and the house was exactly as described (and thank you for the tasty welcome pastries!)The only inconvenience was that the first day it was somewhat warm since there didn't seem to be central A/C, but it cooled down by the evening after opening some windows!Overall, highly recommended for a larger group!

Santa Cruz

It was a wonderful stay. Located a block from the beach, the family enjoyed the short walk to fun in the sun. The facility was very clean and spacious. Plenty of space to prepare meals, gather, and if necessary find your own quiet time. Josh, the owner, was very timely responding to my questions. My family members took a voice vote, and they want to return.

Perfect Santa Cruz location

House was very clean, on a quiet neighborhood street, and our entire family (age range from 4 to 74) all enjoyed the home & slept well in the very comfortable beds. A great family-friendly beach is a short walk away. Will definitely want reserve this spot again for a future family Santa Cruz getaway!

Great location near Twin Lakes State Beach. House updated well. A bit far from wharf and boardwalk and parking for guests a bit tricky on the small streets.
