Small hidden home with walking distance to the beach. Securely tucked in a fenced in yard where you can sit outside in front or backyard and enjoy the sounds of the waves or relax in the backyard under the stars in the hot tub.

Excellent stay in Santa Cruz. The owner is wonderful and made accommodations for us when we needed to come later than expected. The house is comfortable, clean, and conveniently located near the beach and fun restaurants. We look forward to returning.

We stayed here with our two adult daughters and dog for 3 nights at Christmastime — it was a cozy haven where we enjoyed walks to the beach, playing board games, cooking and soaking in the hot tub. Spotlessly clean and the owners couldn’t have been more hospitable, very easy communication. Highly recommend!

This rental house was a fantastic find! It had a truly cozy atmosphere, perfect for relaxing after a day at the beach. Speaking of which, the location was ideal – super close for the kids to easily go back and forth. The hot tub was a definite highlight, and we all slept great thanks to the comfy beds. The kitchen had everything we needed, even if it was a little small. Check-in was a breeze, and having parking right in front was so convenient. Plus, the hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful. Highly recommend!

This bungalow was absolutely perfect for our stay with teenagers and dog. Comfortably equipped and pleasant, short walk to the beach. We spent many wonderful evenings in the backyard which is lovely, BBQing and hot-tubbing.

We loved being able to walk to the beach and restaurants, also a very dog friendly area which was nice. Some bits of the house are a little run down, but overall really lovely and comfortable. You can hear the neighbors quite a bit, but that's pretty typical for the area.

Cute and comfortable vintage beach cottage! Everything was clean and in order. (We did not use the hot tub.) Our family two small senior pups enjoyed the sunny yard, Seabright Deli nearby, and walking down to the beach for sunset. Owner was easy to communicate with at checkout time. Thank you!
