Perfect Stay at the Beach

We loved staying at this house. The house was exactly as pictured and beautifully furnished throughout. We loved being able to eat our meals out on the deck overlooking the ocean and to walk to several restaurants and the boardwalk. It was the perfect central spot to explore Santa Cruz as well as the Monterey/Carmel area.

Family reunion

My family gather together annually in March to celebrate birthdays, update our busy lives and reconnect by sharing joyful memories while making new ones. We love to explore various areas of the west coast from Washington State down through the California coast and discovered the Santa Cruz beaches. This VRBO has been a superb location for running or walking along the coast and discovered great coffee houses, restaurants and bakeries in the neighborhood. We were impressed with the comfortable, clean and organized accommodations that included a hot tub, fire places, a grill on the upper deck with the view of the ocean and had the best sleep. It was absolutely a wonderful weekend. Thank you!

Fantastic property

We had an incredible time during our visit! The house was in a beautiful and safe neighborhood, close to the beach, and restaurants/ coffee/ the boardwalk. Lots of street parking. The house was very clean, well stocked, and well set up to spend lots of time together with family or friends. The only issue we had was that the keys were not inside the lockbox at check in, but there were alternate ways to get inside the house - all listed in the check in instructions - and the property manager was very responsive. I would gladly stay there again!

We made it work

There were six adults & we made it work. The view was BEAUTIFUL, the deck was nice, the fridge ice & water didn't work, rain came in ON THE FUTON in the master bedroom, blinds in master wouldn't close on one side so people could see in, you need young healthy people to use the master bedroom (15 steep stairs). No face towels in the house and FEW bath towels; we had to go to the store and buy some. No iron, the ironing board was rusted & took two people and 10 minutes to collapse, blinds downstairs were dirty. Living area was TIGHT, dining table is only for 4 & space SUPER TIGHT, showers in both bathrooms were updated but challenging to operate for some. Lockbox is old & I had to put the combination in 6-8 times before it opened, and the same with closing when I returned the keys.

Cute, cozy, well-appointed home in a great neighborhood

The house is comfortable and cozy with a well-appointed kitchen and bathrooms with some nice luxury fixtures. Fabulous location just a couple short blocks from the beach and Seabright neighborhood. There is a generous amount of gear and beach supplies for use---beach cruisers, umbrellas, chairs, paddle boards, kids sand toys etc etc. We had no trouble parking three vehicles. While not huge, the place comfortably accommodated our group of 5 ladies enjoying a long girls weekend. Check in and check out were easy. While we had no major issues/need to contact the owner during our stay, we all agreed that some minor attention to detail could have improved our stay, for example, the hot tub makes a funny/distracting chirping noise and some of the closets and shelving were a bit cluttered. The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe, but because there isn't any private yard space, you can feel somewhat 'exposed' ie the front porch is pretty close to the sidewalk and some of the downstairs windows open up to the street. Overall a great stay.

Wonderful beach week!

This house is just as lovely in person as the pictures show. And the owners are amazing people that made a personal visit to make sure we had a working ceiling fan; above and beyond for sure! The house was surface area clean, but the couch and throw pillows could use a cleaning (maybe it is end of summer smell). The proximity to the beach is absolutely amazing. The neighborhood is very cute, but not as quiet as we hoped. There was a lot of foot traffic late at night and the people all seemed to be shouting. But we are cranky homebodies so it could just be an “us” problem. The hot tub was sparkling clean and lovely. Everything you need to hit the beach or enjoy the neighborhood is in the garage. I really enjoyed this house and would rent here again.

Great home and location

When we arrived the house hadn’t been cleaned yet so we contacted Lily and she took care of it right away. I appreciate her responding quickly and making it right. The house is beautiful and in walking distance to Seabright beach. We enjoyed hanging out and eating meals on the deck. The house had a lot of equipment from the kitchen to the beach toys. The bikes were on the larger size for my kids (7, 10, 12) but we were able to use other supplies like the beach chairs and ladder ball game at the beach. It was walking distance to boardwalk and amusement area. We enjoyed our stay and would book again.
