Everything was ready when we arrived. Short walk to the beach for sunrises and sunsets. Good walking paths once you get to the beach, even for a walker! Glad there were Duna's. Tub/ shower bathroom could use grab bars

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The staff was very helpful especially with our initial arrival questions.The overall house was very close to the beach which we walked along for over a mile in both directions. House was in good order, very clean.There were a lot of stairs to claim to first level then to get to main floor.

Very good location, close to the beach, quiet neighborhood. Nice property, spacious and clean. Kitchen is equipped with everything that is needed for a short stay. Great heater, works very quick, the nights were chilly, but heater helped a lot. The only thing that was not very good is that the water in the master bathroom sink drains very slowly. Overall is very good, highly recommended.

Convenient and quiet spot walking distance to the beach. Perfect spot to relax away from the hustle bustle of the touristy downtowns of Santa Cruz and Capitola.

This location is perfect. So close to the beach and walking path. We were disappointed in the photos and felt misled that the deck was off of the kitchen. In reality the deck is off of the downstairs bedroom there’s no place to sit outside during a meal unless you walk downstairs with all your food and drinks and sit on the deck. The carpets are very old and need replacement. The beds were sub comfortable. The neighbors across the street had a huge group and were parting until 1AM. The downstairs bathroom is very very small. The downstairs room also smelled very “damp”. Most of the pots and pans need replacement. The best part about this place is the large upstairs bathroom and it location, everything else needs improvement!

The property is located in a great area if you're interested in spending time at the beach as it's just a short walk away on a dirt path. We loved walking along the ocean path and checking out the pier and the concrete ship. The property is also very close to Capitola (a new favorite town) and Santa Cruz so there are lots of things to do in this area. The kitchen is very nice and well equipped. The rest of the house is a little dated and although quaint, the furniture could be updated and better configured. The living room has only 1 long couch (that isn't very comfortable) and a larger glass/metal dining table and a glass/metal coffee table. As we were a family of 4 (including 2 teenagers), three people could sit on the couch and 1 always had to sit at a hard chair at the table. I would reconfigure the room allowing for a smaller couch and a few comfortable chairs and a more comfortable table that wasn't as large or could be expanded. This may not be important to many people but I walk into every room thinking about how I can improve it so take my feedback with a grain of salt. Aside from the above, my only real complaint was in booking. When I booked, it said the only additional fee was a cleaning fee and booking fee. Linens and everything were included according to the VRBO site. However, upon booking, a linen fee of $160 was added. I emailed the management company and they said they would credit back the linen fee if I brought my own which we did as I thought paying $160 for sheets on the bed was a little steep and unnecessary. I think it's pretty normal to expect sheets on the bed. I'm glad we brought our own as there were no extra sheets and minimal towels (4 total). I'm not trying to be negative but others may want to bring extra towels and also take the linen fee into consideration. Overall, we had a very nice stay and the location was really perfect for us as there was so much to do. In fact, one of my favorite activities was an awesome hike in Aptos across from the grocery store at the top of the hill. There were plenty of redwoods and it was so close.

The place would be even better if the following improvements were made: - Install a nice window with a view in the living room/kitchen area. - Remove ir repoace the carpet.

We are very familiar with the area with having a large family reunion for several generations at Sea Cliff. The location was perfect for walking to the beach. We found the check in and out process with the management company extremely quick having signed the contract before our visit, in/out less then several minutes and the property is near by. The property met all expectations and can recommend and we hope to rent again. Only issue to note is the poor water pressure in the larger upstairs bathroom, but that was expected based on the previous reviews posted and is not unusual for beach properties.

Great spot near trails. Clean and comfortable.

Nice location, but a lack of cleanliness made the trip less enjoyable.

Property was as advertised. Great location! Rental staff extremely easy to work with. Only drawback was upstairs shower pressure

We really enjoyed the property inside and out. It is very conveniently located close to the beach and restaurants.

Excellent location, just a short walk to the beach. Nice neighborhood. Amenities were basic. No dressers in rooms and closets had mattresses in them, so we lived out of suitcases for the trip. There was a serious ant problem on the top floor in kitchen and bedroom (no trash or food left out), so that was a pain. The stay was pleasant and worth it for the location alone.

Great location, walkable distance to the beach, good parking lot. Generally we like it a lot. Two things to notice though: 1. Small ants tried to eat my food. Everything should go to the fridge or sealed bag. 2. Furnace is loud and old thermostat makes it on in off very often.

We had a great time walking to the beach! It was nice to be a quick drive to parks, ice cream, and great restaurants. I definitely recommend this place!

A Short walk to the beach.

This was perfect for my family stay at the beach. Excellent value also.

This was a great house for myself, my daughter and her friend. It was so cute and in a great little neighborhood. The property management company was really amazing, we even extended our stay an extra night and they were so helpful. Would definitely go back!

We had a great time during our stay. The house was spacious and slept 4 adults comfortably. We found the supplies in the kitchen to be more than enough but did struggle with the TV the one night we tried to watch it (no batteries in the remotes). We loved hanging out on the patio which doesn’t have a view of the beach but does have a view of a little river. The beach is less than a five minute walk away using the bike path. We had a great time and would definitely recommend it!

We had a good experience. The house was conveniently located just a short walk from the beach and the neighborhood was quiet. Nice place for a family vacation.

The television did not work. We were not there except in the evening when we could not contact anyone.

Enjoyed relaxing in the home, farmer’s market at Cabrillo College, Gayle’s Bakery, short walk to the beach to enjoy reading and a nap.

The location of the place was perfect. Walking distance from the ocean. When it came to wanting to cook in the kitchen... that was a different story. We love to cook and bake even though we are on vacation and we were not really able to do that. There was only one knife (that was daul), no bottle or can opener, and the refrigerator was not cold like a normal refrigerator. There were plenty of chop sticks, but no wine glasses? I understand some people might not drink, but when renting a place, I feel like this is something that is present. I did have a question when it comes to the futon. If you offer it to be used, but there are no extra sheets to put on it, how can you offer it to be used? I feel like this is a more negative response than positive. We did make the best of our situation and had a good time. For future renting we would recommend upgrading your amenities or at least note it's not a fully equipped kitchen. Thank you for your time and effort reading our review. As well as offering your place to others. We do appreciate it.
