"The house was great for our time in Aptos. It’s a great place to stay, especially with kids. The beach is very easy to access. We also appreciated that there was plenty of hot water for everyone when taking a shower. The removable shower head was great for washing the kiddos after the beach. The kitchen was well-stocked and easy to cook in. Very cozy and clean. The road is busy, but it wasn’t an issue for us. We would like to stay here again."
