Cozy cottage

Perfect little house for our short vacation to Santa Cruz. Close to boardwalk, beach and Capitola. Clean home with everything you need. The hot tub was a big hit! Comfortable beds and pillows. All you need to bring is your clothes and food to enjoy this lovely home. We will return. THANK YOU!

Making “Mom’s Retreat” a success

We were 6 moms looking for a quiet weekend away to recharge and that is exactly what we got! The house was beautiful and clean. It had every amenity we needed to relax and recharge our battery. We were made aware of a personally imposed noise ordinance by 9pm and even though we were not the loud type of group, it made our stay a little uneasy when we wanted to enjoy the deck and fire pit at night. So I would not recommend this stay if you have a noisy kids or a loud group. Other than that, it was a short walk to the beach, local coffee shops and a short drive to everything else!

Perfectly set up for lovely weekend

We stayed here for two nights when my son graduated from UCSC. The house is very nice and thoughtfully stocked with every item you might need but not over stocked a la Marie Kondo. The beds were comfy. Quiet place and upgraded well. Wifi good. Great kitchen I want to redo my bathrooms now that I have seen such beautiful ones! Didn't try hot tub but patio set up also very nice.

Cozy and well-appointed in a great location!

This is a great property with nice amenities and a very central, walk-to-beach location. The neighborhood is quiet and it was very relaxing to sit in the backyard and relax and chat on the deck. The teens in our group loved the loft!

Fabulous place!

We chose this property because of the backyard... and it was totally worth it! It's more expensive of a place than we normally choose, but when you consider the time spent in the yard vs in a restaurant or bar, we probably saved money. And we definitely enjoyed the time more. We'll be back for sure.

No issues, would stay again

Hosts were very communicative and sent us highlights of things to do well ahead of our arrival. Property was clean and definutely the most well stocked of all the rentals we've stayed at in terms of things like cleaning supplies, paper towels, toiletries, etc. Hosts checked in on us after arrival to make sure all was well. Kitchen was well stocked with basic utensils, spices, and so forth. There wasn't a vegetetable steamer but we made do. Not sure how many others would need that! Great remodel on a 1940s property that made it very modern and cozy. The beds were very comfortable. Overall, no issues, we would absolutely stay again, nd would reccommend.

Wonderful Quick Getaway

Such a lovely little gem in Santa Cruz...can't wait to come back when it's a bit warmer and we can use that fantastic window to the back deck. Hot tub was great and firepit was such a nice feature especially with its size. Hosts were very accomodating! Thanks for a great birthday weekend for our daughter <3

Great Stay!

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful property, which was exactly as described in the listing. The location was perfect—just a short walk to the beaches, making it easy to enjoy the ocean whenever we wanted. Our kids especially loved the lofts, which added a fun and cozy touch to our stay. The house was stocked with plenty of beach toys and accessories, making it incredibly family-friendly. We’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable beach getaway!
