Steps to Black's Beach
Great stay here! Home was cozy and had everything we needed. Enjoyed making coffee and sitting on the deck in the morning. The walk to the beach is only a few minutes away. We needed extra chairs and an umbrella and Kathryn had those items in the closet that we were able to use. Hope to visit again.

Beach Front Dream House! Hottub/E-Bikes/Surfboards
we loved staying here! everything was in excellent condition and looked exactly like the photos, plus you can’t beat the location! the beach was right across the street and walking distance to coffee, shops, food, etc. evan was super responsive and gave very clear, easy to follow instructions for check-in and check-out. highly recommend for your next beach trip!! ☀️

Copper Nest beach retreat with stunning views
The copper nest was a great place to stay for our long weekend trip. It was ideally situated 30mins drive from UCSC. The beach house exceeded our expectations, and comfortably accommodated 8 guests. All aspects had been thought about by the host, from the detailed text messages pre arrival through to the prevision of supplies, saving the immediate necessity to go basic food shopping. The house was pleasantly furnished with high end product and the beds were so comfortable. The state beach (only foot steps away) was so peaceful, with barely a sole on this stretch. Both hosts were responsive to any issues or questions. Thank you

Heart of Capitola Village★Parking★King Bed★Pets Ok
Great location! Walkable to everything in the village. Great condo. Almost don’t want to post this to keep it a secret.

Charming, Light-filled House Walk To The Beach
Sarah's place was perfect for our family gathering! It was comfortable for 7 and the location was awesome. Only a couple blocks from the beach! The view was nice and we enjoyed eating outside on the pation. Great stay.

The Seacliff Family Beach House!
This is a really great spot and we would definitely stay here again! Jackie was a great host and the communication was excellent throughout our trip. The beds were nice, the house was clean, and the windows allow plenty of light to come in. The house is also well stocked with plenty of coffee, a variety of cooking and glassware, some and, some spices. The hosts have also prepared the house with games, toys, and small bowls and forks for kids. The backyard is also a really nice to hangout in and has a small yard that could be a great area for kids to run around as well. The house is in a quiet neighborhood that is about a 10-15 minute walk to the beach. There are also some nice restaurants, grocery stores, and cute shopping areas about a 5-10min drive away. Some areas in Santa Cruz have pretty hard water (including this spot) so if you aren't used to that grabbing some bottled water for your trip might be a good idea. We had a great time and highly recommend this spot!

Bali-by-the-Beach...time for you!
We felt right at home and had everything we needed for the best weekend. Our favorite part about the house was being able to walk to the beach in just 3 minutes with coffee, pizza and pie right there on her fingertips beautiful location

Light-Filled Escape: Your Home Away From Home
the property was amazing. lots of stairs of a windy single car drive through the neighborhood but everyone was very caisitous and amazing. the house is better than the photos and so cozy. the kitchen was the best kitchen I've ever cooked in.

Condo in Seascape Beach Resort
Our favorite part was the walk to the expansive beach. The resort is very nice, and the condo was great.

Rowan's house
This place is absolutely incredible! It’s located in the mountains but not too far from town, it feels so peaceful when you are at the property and especially at Louie’s lookout. We stayed there for a week for our honeymoon, it’s within driving distance to so many special spots. Chris was awesome as well.

Royal Villa - Ocean View - Heated Pools - Seascape
Amazing views and walk to the beach. Beautiful beach! Perfect condo with lots of great touches like the bidet, and cutco knives.

Santa Cruz A-Frame
This place was so lovely! Surrounded by beautiful trees and the sounds of the creek made for great writing spot. Also, great hiking nearby. The A-Frame is adorable and nicely decorated. Sweet spot!!

Beautiful Ocean View -Seascape Prime Location
David’s place was absolutely perfect. The views are amazing, the place is beautiful and well equipped, the walk to the beach is so pretty, hanging out at the beach was so fun, and everything about the seascape area was adorable. We came up to celebrate our son’s graduation and staying at David’s place was like icing on the cake. Our stay couldn’t have been better.

Charming Beach Bungalow - 5 min walk to Seacliff
This place was everything we could ask for! We arrived and found a lot for our 2 and 3 year olds to play with in the toy closet and book cases, along with plenty of beach things to bring out. We fortunately packed our own but was still very nice knowing we had back ups. Coming and going was super easy including checking in. We had her next door neighbor in a group chat for anything we’d need since the host isn’t nearby and that was so helpful, yet the host still replied quickly for anything I’d ask. There is no AC but everyone slept so well because of the portable fans we kept in each room and only opened safety windows (screens on) at night to let cool breeze come in. I actually enjoyed the beach literally walking distance from her place more than the other beaches around too. What a short walk, yet only felt like much further when you have two littles walking too! Thank you again!
