Thank you for a lovely stay to enjoy precious family time. The rain delayed beach time which just created time for us to cook and watch movies together. Lovely host - would enjoy staying here again !

Loved it!!
The cottage did not disappoint in any way. It was cozy, comfortable, well stocked and perfectly located. We came with our dog and there were treats for her and wine for us! The yard was perfect for her to stretch her legs. I highly recommend this place for couples or families. It’s a wonderful place to stay in Santa Cruz. We can’t wait to come back!

Dogs loved it
This cozy little bungalow was perfect for us and our dogs. The yard is perfectly groomed, and there’s outdoor seating. The best part is, it’s at the end of a dead end, and it’s walking distance to the beach. We are hoping to come back next year.

Cozy beach cottage
Our family enjoyed our stay at this adorable, clean home, which was perfectly decorated in beach-themed style. The owners left thoughtful welcome gifts for us and our pup - a chilled bottle of wine and dog treats, plus the outdoor firepit was ready to go! The fenced-yard was perfect for our pup and we never had to worry. We enjoyed the outdoor furniture and had a fire one night. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked. The beds were comfy and the linens super soft! The beach and a few restaurants are a short walk. There were plenty of beach chairs along with some umbrellas. We definitely want to come back in the future!
