This California Craftsman Bungalow on the Santa Cruz Historical Register is beautiful, spotlessly clean, fully furnished and is one house off East Cliff Drive overlooking Seabright Beach.

The location is ideal as it is walking distance to the beach and to numerous Santa Cruz attractions including the Santa Cruz Yacht Harbor, Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Municipal Wharf, Lighthouse Point and Steamer Lane, and Natural History Museum. Everything you'll need is close by- Verve Coffee Roasters as well as dozens of restaurants including fan-favorites Seabright Brewery, Crow's Nest, and more.

After a fun day out at the beach (umbrella, towels, and chairs provided), rinse off in the private outdoor shower before coming inside to relax by the gas fireplace and watch a movie (Television/cable included). Make yourself at home in the fully-equipped kitchen as we have provided the basic necessities to make a wonderful homemade meal- Small appliances include coffee maker, blender, & toaster. Fully equipped with dishes, glassware/barware, cooking utensils, and basic spices.

Upstairs, the large Master Bedroom contains a Queen bed, and the other bedroom has 2 twins (both bedrooms have dressers and closets for unpacking!). A 1/2 bath upstairs makes things even more convenient.

There is an impeccably manicured English garden with grass front yard and side yard concrete patio (including table and chairs for outside dining, if preferred) and Weber barbecue.

This fantastic cottage is loved by all.

    We loved our stay at this adorable home. It was very clean had everything we needed even things we didn’t think to bring. Access was easy and the owner was quick to answer any questions.Just a few little issues with the Internet. Other than that, everything was great! I absolutely recommend this place if you’re heading to Santa Cruz.

    The Seabright Bungalow was a super-cozy and quiet house in an excellent location, just steps from the beach. You could hear the waves at night through the windows. The host went out of their way to be very helpful during our stay. I would be happy to stay here again someday!

    Property is in a great location and walkable to activities, restaurants etc. Well equipped with beach chairs, towels and toys. Only suggestion would be to upgrade the tvs which are quite small.

    Our favorite house in Santa Cruz! This was our second stay at this location and it’s still perfect. It’s a two minute walk to the beach and 10 minutes to the Boardwalk. The house is immaculate and has everything we need for a comfortable stay.

    The home was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was communicative and welcoming. We happened to be headed out when the gentleman arrived to do landscaping and he was kind to us and very sweet to our young child. It was an easy 10 minute walk to the Boardwalk (even with a four year old!) and a quick few minutes to the beach. We appreciated the generous size of the living space and simple decor. It was the perfect size and location for our family and we can’t wait to stay here again!

    This bungalow is literally across the street from the beach. It was clean and cozy. The neighborhood was calm and peaceful even though it’s within very short walking distance to the boardwalk. We were thrilled with the entire experience and staying here again in the future would be a no brainer. 10/10 Just book it. You won’t regret it.
