The lower level smelled of mildew & mold
The lower level bed was poor. I fell through the bed & I weigh 115 lbs
There were only a few towels & wash cloths & they were of poor quality.
One person slept on the uncomfortable sofa because the odor was so bad downstairs
There was blood on a blanket

Good location, wierd layout
This property was close to the beach, but very poorly laid out. You went up a flight of stairs to reach the deck, which is where the main entrance was. Then you entered on the lower floor, which is where there was a bedroom and tiny bathroom, and you had to walk up narrow stairs to the next floor to reach the living area. The furniture was not particularly comfortable, but there was a nice kitchen. Temperature regulation was a problem; the bottom bedroom tended to be much colder than upstairs, and the entire living space was quite musty-smelling. We had to leave the windows open to get that smell out of the house, which tended to make it pretty cool inside. That being said, it did meet our needs.

Getaway
This place is pretty much as advertised. The only down side was that there is only one uncomfortable small couch to sit on in the livingroom, the other option is to sit at the diningroom table. If you are a young couple on the go and not spending much time here other than to cook, eat and sleep, this place is great.

Killer Little Beach House!
Overall the stay was just what we needed! The house upon arrival was a little dirty so we did have to clean and for peace of mind wash all the linens provided. However, when I notified the property managers they were amazing in getting us what we needed. The homeowner has lots of no sand in the house signs so make sure to utilize the hose next to the first landing of the stairs. Aptos is a Gem and we definitely will be using Bailey Property Management again in the future. Make sure to go to the Aquarium and El Cantaro for lunch! If you like local beers and good food in Aptos we came to love a new establishment called Churchill & Beers
Happy Beaching!

Family Birthday Get-together
Everything was ready when we arrived.
Short walk to the beach for sunrises and sunsets. Good walking paths once you get to the beach, even for a walker! Glad there were Duna's. Tub/ shower bathroom could use grab bars

Nice property
Very good location, close to the beach, quiet neighborhood.
Nice property, spacious and clean. Kitchen is equipped with everything that is needed for a short stay.
Great heater, works very quick, the nights were chilly, but heater helped a lot.
The only thing that was not very good is that the water in the master bathroom sink drains very slowly.
Overall is very good, highly recommended.

Peaceful Spot with walkable beach access
Convenient and quiet spot walking distance to the beach. Perfect spot to relax away from the hustle bustle of the touristy downtowns of Santa Cruz and Capitola.
