Exceptional!
I’ve stayed in many private rentals, and this is definitely top-notch. Great hosts, excellent beach amenities, fantastic proximity to a beautiful beach and the Santa Cruz boardwalk (both an easy walk). I’ll be back…

Beautiful home with everything you need for your stay
Beautiful home inside and out. Easy checkin and check out. Home had everything we could of needed for our week stay. 3 min walk to Sea right Beach. Really close by to restaurants and Boardwalk. Glenn was extremely helpful and quick to respond. Lots of space, stocked kitchen and bathrooms and lots of beach gear. I would highly recommend this home and would definitely stay here again when in California

Great beach house
It is a great beach house. They supplied everything you need for the beach and more. Wet suits, boogie boards, chairs, umbrellas, sand toys. Very nice kitchen and very well stocked! Bathrooms were nice. The downstairs TV area is dark and the bedrooms are dark and small. But the beds we’re comfortable. There was laundry facilities. The location couldn’t have been better!!! I highly recommend it!

Perfect Get-Away close to the beach!
The communication with the home owner was fantastic! He got right back to us with the questions we had and was an overall really nice person. The home is on a quite street, not many cars. Its an easy 3 minute walk to the beach and 10 minute walk to the Boardwalk. The house is very clean and comfortable. Kitchen has everything needed to cook dinners in and having a BBQ was a huge plus! Can't say enough about this place its simply a fantastic place to say and we look forward to going back!
