The Beachy Keen Bungalow is a bright and breezy home that’s perfect for relaxing after a sunny day at the beach.

The great room is open and spacious so the entire family can relax together either on the comfy couch in the living space, at the dining table or fixing a snack in the fully stocked kitchen. There’s also a cute sun room stocked a TV to keep even the little ones entertained. The primary bedroom features a plush Cal King bed. The second bedroom has two twin beds, perfect for the kiddos. The third bedroom has a plush top, queen bed. Outside, you’ll find a fully enclosed yard with lots of room for outdoor BBQ meals and play. Winter or summer, the hot tub will be a perfect spot to relax after all your Santa Cruz fun.

This three bedroom, two bath home comfortably sleeps six people.

Our goal is to ensure your Santa Cruz vacation is perfect. And with some of the best beaches and amenities within walking distance, you don’t have to go far to enjoy Santa Cruz. Twin Lakes (aka Blacks Beach), that’s only 1.5 blocks away, features great surf during the day, amazing views of the lighthouses and fire pits for roasting marshmallows in the evening. The Santa Cruz harbor is walking distance and features great restaurants like The Kind Grind, Aldo’s or the famous Crow’s Nest. Hop in your car and drive 5 minutes to the Beach Boardwalk, downtown Santa Cruz or Capitola. We have a “Things to Do” binder at the house full of recommendations to help you enjoy your stay. And we’re always available prior to your arrival to help in anyway. This is sure to be one of your most memorable vacations yet!

    Charming home with close proximity to the beach. This home had everything we needed to be comfortable. It was clean, somewhat secluded and had a great little sandwich place right around the corner for breakfast or lunch. The host were friendly and easy to contact. It was a nice solution for our family trip to Santa Cruz.

    The bungalow was cute. Perfect for our family. Plenty of dishes and everything was clean. The only issue was the carbon monoxide alarm started going off around 11pm every hour until we contacted the owner around 2am who walked us through the deactivation of the unit. (Not battery operated). That thing was LOUD!! There were other units working in the house so no worries of poisoning. Not much sleep that night for our family. We would recommend staying there.

    Our family enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The home had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Highly walkable to the beach, close to the market, taqueria, and coffee shop. Plenty of toys and books kept our children busy. Beds are very very soft. One room had a particularly potent mildew scent that can perhaps be remediated, typical of beachside homes. Overall we would certainly recommend!

    We had a nice stay at this cute cottage. It was 6 of us girlfriends having a reunion for the weekend and we enjoyed the space. It was comfortable and fairly clean. We did experience a few dirty dishes but not a big deal. The hot tub was great and the only complaints are that we needed more blankets and mixing bowls. Otherwise it was a good location and we had fun.

    The property and location was more beautiful than the pics suggested. Highly recommend if you are looking for a cozy place a short distance near the beach.

    We had a wonderful stay at the Beachy Keen cottage! It was the perfect size for our family of six and had plenty of amenities. The property is clean, well stocked and has lots of toys for the little ones. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub and the beach umbrella and chairs so kindly provided. Close enough to walk to the beach and a great little coffee shop and cafe (The Windmill). Thank you so much!
