"The location is the biggest asset of this home—it’s so stunning and hard to beat. For 4 couples this rental worked out well. We cooked a lot and the kitchen had pretty much everything we needed. We loved being able to walk to the Swift Street breweries and restaurants and Marianne’s ice cream on Fair Ave was such a treat. Everyone agreed we’d love to stay here again!"

Mitchell's Cove Beach House

10/10 Excellent
"The Beachnest in Santa Cruz was the perfect rental for our family trip to the coast. The property is located just 2 blocks from the beach in a very peacful and quiet neighborhood. The backyard space was amazing and allowed for games, meals and hanging out. There are bikes, sand toys, and games which really make the stay more enjoyable. Plenty of activities, beaches and coastline to explore just down the road. Highly recommended. Keep in mind there is a 400 tourism charge from the local government that may or may not be disclosed up front, but after spending time in this beautiful part of the California coast, it's understandable."
