    The house is in a great neighborhood and very well taken care of. The house also included anything and everything a guest would need. It’s clean, updated and beautifully decorated. The beds were comfortable as well. The host went above and beyond which made us feel comfortable.The host also had the house information and local information easily accessible, which was very helpful. We will definitely stay at this house in the future.

    This property was exactly what we were looking for during our short stay to visit with our daughter. The home was very well stocked and comfortable for us all. It is so wonderful to stay in a home where it is clear the owner cares about our comfortability and Christine went above and beyond. Thank you, Christine, for providing such a wonderful property for us to stay in. The location was perfect. Quiet, yet close enough to take advantage of all that Santa Cruz has to offer. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you! We look forward to coming back, next time for longer.

    We had a great time visiting some friends in Santa Cruz. The house was spacious and thoughtfully equipped. It had everything we needed, and a lot of additional useful things such as toys for our toddler to play with and a wagon for beach outings. Location was also central for everything we wanted to do.

    House was lovely. It was in a cul de sac with other similar houses. I felt safe and everything in the house was clean. The kitchen is well stocked with most of what we needed t o make breakfast each day. The hot tub was a nice addition.

    The home is very beautiful and is in a great location on a quiet cul-de-sac; it is close to everything in Santa Cruz. The home is very spacious, comfortable and well equipped; it was great for the six of us. The check-in process was easy and there were no issues. Christine was great to work with and prompt in her follow up. My family and I were in Santa Cruz for our son's graduation from UCSC - availability that weekend in Santa Cruz was limited and, as much as we loved this home, the price was a bit excessive. Aside from this, the home is great.
