"Wonderful quiet property with a great location to enjoy all things Santa Cruz. The neighborhood is very quiet and just a short walk to the beach, coffee shops, restaurants, and boutique stores.

10/10 Excellent
"The house was clean and very spacious. We loved the Keurig and different coffee choices. It was very relaxing sitting in the backyard with a fire pit to warm you in the cool evening. Parking was very ample. It’s located just a few doors down from a most beautiful view of the ocean.Four of us stayed there with our mountain bikes secured in the garage. We plan on returning and booking the same home sometime in the near future.Would highly recommend this house to anyone who wants to enjoy a visit to Santa Cruz."
