This place was super comfortable and convenient for our family of four. It was great being so close to the beach. Only downside is that it’s on a busy street that was pretty loud at night.
We had a great time in Santa Cruz! We loved the location of this house - we were a 5 min drive or 15 minute walk near soo many things to do or places to eat! Nothing was lacking in the kitchen and the white noise machines in the bedrooms were a nice touch! We will definitely book again if available the next time we come to town!
Family of 5 stayed for 3 nights. Clean, well appointed and quiet the weekend we were there. The boardwalk and beach are short 10 minute walk. Across from a trailhead which provides a nice run or family walk each morning and afternoon. Parking in the garage was nice. I’d return.
Very nice condominium, well located with a focus on the boardwalk. Well equipped, and clean. The management company was highly responsive to our needs. We enjoyed our stay.
Host is exceptionally communicative and gives great resources. The house was clean and perfect for our family and our needs. They even have a baby travel crib and a small stroller, which I was not aware of when I booked the house. The location is fairly close to downtown Santa Cruz and within walking distance to the beach boardwalk. During our stay the neighborhood was quiet. Lots of great places to eat around the area and easy access to highway 1. Would definitely stay here again.
Host had great communication, the home was just as described and very clean. Loved that they had helpful touches throughout, like WiFi password, clear instructions for a/c and heat as well as where everything goes. Nice touches such as aluminum foil, seasoning, oil and other. Look forward to visiting again!
Property was great but needs a few things that would really help. There is no place tovput your clothes in the bedrooms. There is space for hang up items but no dressers or drawers of any kind for other items. No tvs in any of the bedrooms which is a problem at night if you have,kids. Location was,great so we could walk to the beech in no time
