Charming Home with Character
The home was perfect in every regard. The kitchen was well furnished with everything we needed. The beds were comfortable. The interior was decorated with sailing ships in every room. Our 4 y/o grandson was amazed! We greatly enjoyed playing chess on the board with over-sized pieces.

I’ve stayed at many vacation rentals, and this is one of the best. It’s one of the best because of the details. It’s well kept, and well appointed. And as a cherry on top, you can walk to the beach in 5-7 minutes. Highly recommended.

Beautiful spot!
We all loved our stay! The house was perfect for the 6 of us (4 adults, 3 yr old & a 16 month old). It’s an easy walk down the trail to the beach, the front deck was a welcome sunny spot for afternoon chats and the back yard and hot tub were a welcomed and lovely bonus at the end of the day. The hosts were easily reached, check in and out were simple. The perfect beach getaway! We highly recommend it!

Lovely Place
The place was nice and cozy and had a lovely beach casual feel to it. The front deck with ocean view was a perfect spot to hangout with a small group and barbecue.
Me, my husband, our 4 month old daughter and my parents stayed and we all loved it. We’d love to come back sometime.
We brought a Pack n Play for our 4 month old to sleep in, which fit in front of the dresser by the French doors. It worked nicely for us as we did not need to use the dresser.
The back yard is also very nice and inviting.
Sid was easy to communicate with and provided all the info we needed for a wonderful stay.

Relaxing and convenient beach stay
My family (two teens, my husband, dog and I) had a great stay at the Beach Bungalow in Aptos.
Property is super cute and clean. Close to restaurants, cafes and shops.
Quick walk to the Beach.
Water in the bathroom shower took a LONG time to get hot, but the hot tub was amazing and had a nice outdoor shower.
