Fantastic, modern 2bdr Cottage, 5min to beach

❤️ Relax with the whole family at this peaceful place to stay. 2 blocks from the beach this Santa Cruz beach-styled house is perfect for enjoying what Santa Cruz has to offer. (VP241119) Only a 5 minute walk to the beach. Enjoy very fast Wifi and other play equipment. Its lovely to walk the beach at sunset. It's only a small car drive to many cool parts of Santa Cruz like the boardwalk, pleasure point, Capitola & beautiful beaches.❤️❤️❤️

Great place to stay in Santa Cruz

Highly recommended, easy check-in and clean apartment in a nice location. Everything we needed was available and we loved the fire on the front patio.

Adorable Beach Cottage

Nicely remodeled, this cottage is well appointed and comfortable. It was in a good location. We spent a lot of time relaxing on the front deck. I would book again.

Quick trip to Santa Cruz

Enjoyed our stay, this is a very nice place in a great location. Host was very responsive and helped with anything that came up. A couple things that weren't exactly as we had hoped but it was not a big deal and the host was actively pursuing solutions at every notice I gave. Would definitely stay here again in the future if the dates needed are available.

Wonderful Home!

We loved our stay here! The house was very clean, appliances were all new, very adorable and beautiful house! Lots of natural light and very walkable distance to the beach that we enjoyed walking. Omar was very nice was super responsive if we needed anything. Truly loved our stay and wish we stayed longer! Also the beds and couch were probably the most comfortable we’ve had ever in an Airbnb! Thank you!

Great house in nice location, a few minor kinks to work out

We really enjoyed our stay at the house, it was well appointed (kitchen was well stocked, a good quantity of linens/pillows/blankets/towels, etc.) and in a really great location. We walked to the beach quite easily during our stay. Our only complaint is that the house didn't feel "tested out" prior to our stay. There was some unknown residue in the oven that started to smoke when we turned it on, one of the two shower heads was leaking (so the property manager asked us not to use it), the outdoor fireplace was out of gas, and the body wash dispenser in the shower was broken. Hopefully with this feedback some of these wrinkles can be smoothed out and future guests can enjoy a perfect stay!
