Casita de Santa Cruz is a delightful 2 bedroom, 2 bath home that comfortably sleeps up to four people. Artistically decorated, the 2 bedrooms each have a queen size bed. The large enclosed brick patio offers privacy for enjoying a soak in the hot tub, sunbathing or enjoying a barbecue while listening to the seals barking from their perches under the wharf.

Casita de Santa Cruz is a hidden gem, offering seclusion, but located in the heart of a westside Santa Cruz beach neighborhood. You can be in the thick of it within minutes, but also hide away from it all. The choice is yours! Live like a local during your vacation.

Enjoy a bike ride along West Cliff Drive, go wine tasting, take a drive up the coast to San Francisco or down the coast to Monterey, visit the University of California, Santa Cruz, play a round of golf, go sailing on the Chardonnay, try surfing!, or just relax at the beach.

    We often rent homes when we travel and this home was exceptional! It was perfect for our family of 3 (2 adults and an 11 year old). It was very clean and comfortable. It was within walking distance to West Cliff, the wharf, coffee shops, as well as many other things, but in a quiet neighborhood. The house had everything you would need...fully equipped kitchen, towels (both bath and beach), beach chairs, hair dryer, iron and ironing board...you name it! My son loved the skim board that was there and used it almost every day! We used the hot tub also every day, which was a nice feature of the home. The beds were comfortable and we all slept great! We would definitely rent this home again next time we're in the area!

    We had a wonderful stay at this charming casita. It is truly a hidden treasure! It's located in a beautiful neighborhood, and we enjoyed walking to the beach and the lighthouse and relaxing in the hot tub. It's worth noting that the bathroom has a bathtub and shower, but we did need to provide shampoo/conditioner and soap, as other reviewers noted. We had trouble with the code at check-in; however, the host resolved this very quickly. I highly recommend staying at the casita.

    Our expectations were high and were exceeded. The host was a great and a gracious helper and advisor. Locals drive miles to be near the places we walked a block or two to visit. The Casita had everything. We had a fun packed and memorable stay.

    The house was perfect for our party of four (3 adults and a toddler). The living space was comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped for cooking meals, and we ate all our meals in the lovely patio. The hot tub was an added bonus. The location is wonderful for walking to many great Santa Cruz restaurants and activities.

    Overall, our stay was excellent. The location was great, just a couple blocks to West Cliff, easy walk into town and the wharf. Place was clean and beds comfortable. We had issues with the outlets in the bedrooms not working - only 1 outlet in each bedroom worked. The host was responsive quickly and although they couldn't fix the issue while we were there, they supplied us with extension cords that worked around the issue. No soap, shampoo or conditioner - it did say that in amenities but I honestly think that is something the host should provide. It's a small nicety especially when you don't read all the details of the amenities beforehand and now have to buy those things.

    We had a wonderful stay here! The location could not be beat. The neighborhood was quiet and friendly, and just a short walk to many beautiful sites, including the boardwalk, the wharf, and W. Cliff Dr. The Casita was very comfortable and exactly as advertised. The back patio space with the hot tub and outdoor table was so peaceful and beautiful. An absolutely wonderful property, terrific communication from the host, and overall outstanding stay.

    Place is an excellent stay for anything Santa Cruz. They also have a lot of extras that make the stay easy like beach towels and such.

    Great location, very comfortable beds, awesome amenities with the exception of needing to supply our own dish soap, and shower soaps - not enough paper supplies. Other than that, hope to stay again!

    Everything was awesome. Location and access to Santa Cruz is great. Unfortunately there were a lot of ants. Might be because the floor downstairs was warm.

    We had a lovely time at Casita De Santa Cruz, everything was as advertised on the website, entry to the house was straightforward, lots to do and see, we also had family living in the area so it was great to catch up with them. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your lovely house.
