We had a great family getaway at Colm's lovely property. It's a very relaxed, low-key beach house; wonderfully appointed with everything you might need to enjoy the local beaches or just chill in the back yard. We had three generations on site, so it was really helpful to have a quiet reading spot (the hammock got a lot of use), as well as more social areas like the outdoor dining area.
The state parks pass was a particular benefit of staying at this house--one or all of us could run down to the beach for a dusk walk, or the whole day.
Colm was a gracious host -- accessible, easygoing, welcoming, just like his house. We had a great time!

The house was clean, spacious for a family of four, and comfortable. But the best part is the outdoor space. There are two tables for outdoor dining, a wonderful hammock, two comfortable Adirondack chairs, and an area for Bocce ball and corn hole. Plus, the property has everything you need for the beach—a beach umbrella, beach chairs, towels, boogie boards, a standup paddle board, and sand toys. We highly recommend this house for families with active kids.

The Kennedy Beach House is in a great location--very quite neighborhood. We spend a lot of time on Capitola beach and it's only about 10 minutes away. The house appears to have been recently remodeled. The open floor plan of the house is light and livable. The furniture and beds are very comfortable. We would definitely stay there again.

We loved everything about the property, and area, and all that Aptos had to offer. Our host was fantastic. He was very kind and responsive. The little things provided by the owner (state park day pass, items for the kids to enjoy, games [inside and out] were really nice amenities. We would absolutely stay here again as it was a great hub for our daily adventures.

We had a great stay at Kennedy beach house. It was perfectly set up for family time with our young boys, and there was more beach equipment than we could possibly use. The kitchen was nice and spacious too!

We loved our stay here! The cottage is cozy and inviting, perfect for spending time with family and friends. We really enjoyed the outdoor space, especially the hammock, and loved riding the bikes to the beach every evening to catch the sunset. In a perfect location and well stocked with everything you need for a family getaway including comfortable beds, an awesome kitchen, outdoor games and sports equipment, and a fireplace for chilly, rainy days. We hope to come back!

Lovely, peaceful, spacious, comfortable. I especially loved hearing the Great Horned Owl nearby every night. Kitchen was impeccably stocked. Beds comfy, bathroom nice! Bummer about the buckets of rain which kept us from the beach, but huddled by the fireplace as also lovely. Highly recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is really nice and clean and has everything you need. Lots of outdoor activity equipment such as bocce balls, soccer ball, football, basket ball...
We were able to play bocce ball when there was a break in the rain. Perfect location for a trip to the Monterey Bay Aquarium - only 45 minutes away, Santa Cruz, Tide Pools and lots more.
Thank you so much!

The house and location are great. Perfect for the three of us for cooking and enjoying the evening together. The weather was rainy during our stay so, we were not able to enjoy the outdoor tables and patios. However, they were very inviting looking. Instead we enjoyed the indoor fireplace which was very warming. Thank you.

The house is located in a quiet residential area close to the beach, about 15-20 minute walk. We enjoyed the outdoor patio but due to the rain we stayed inside. It was nice to go to the beach January 1 to enjoy the new year! Overall, it is a great house with many appliances. Thank you for having us stay!

We spent five days enjoying the beach, hiking in Nicene Marks and visiting family. The house is a perfect location, walkable to the beach, the mountains, the shops nearby. The property itself has wonderful outside areas, where we spent most of our time when at the house. Definitely intend to come back.
