    All of our guests had everything they needed to make their stay comfortable. Beach access was convenient and close by. Lots of beach chairs and other beach necessities such as boogie boards at the house to make it fun and economical. The ping pong table and other entertainment items were enjoyed by all. Kitchen was well stocked with every dish needed to enjoy all meals. We would definitely welcome an opportunity to stay there again.

    This is our 4th year coming here. We always have a great time. House is clean, accommodating, and in a great location. I won’t stay anywhere else in Santa Cruz.

    My family loves this house, which is why we’ve been 3 times. Very spacious, great for multi families. Close to beach, all the amenities you want in a rental. Owners are accommodating and thoughtful.

    Fantastic home. We brought extra toiletries and TP due to experiences that some in our party had endured when staying at other spots. Not needed here. This home was generously supplied with everything visitors might need, from the kitchen to the baths to the puzzle closet and more. Lovely views, everything as advertised. Highly recommend!

    This was our second time staying here and we love this house. It is incredibly well stocked. Our group of 11 stayed here for four nights and cooked all of our meals. There wasn’t anything that we wished we had, that wasn’t in the house. It’s so close to the beach, the location couldn’t be much better. It’s a great place for a couple of families to stay together.
