We had the most amazing 5 days at this rental. Walkable to anything you needed, nestled in a gorgeous neighborhood in SC. We're from the west side so it was really fun to stay in upper Seabright. Our pup LOVED sitting on the small deck. We will definitely be back!

This unit worked perfectly for us during our recent trip to visit family in Santa Cruz. It was well equipped, and in a quiet neighborhood. The toys and high chair were a nice bonus for our two year old niece, who came over to visit us.

the refrigerator made a very strange noise. It woke me two mornings as the master bedroom is close to the kitchen/refrigerator. Tennant in the back unit was very rude. Slamming garage door several times and parked travel van in the middle of the driveway leaving me to drive onto the curb to get in and out of the driveway.

This unit was the perfect spot for my daughter and I in a quiet neighborhood. It was close to the Boardwalk-15 minute walk. It was also close to some great restaurants. The property manager kept in touch to make sure that our stay was pleasant. Very clean with a well stocked kitchen. Will book again

Accommodation was comfortable, location convenient to nearby Whole Foods, and nearby dog park. Neighborhood is quiet and plenty of parking. Lots of windows to make the place bright and balcony to enjoy the view. Only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is due to un-thoroughly cleaned dishes, pots, pans, and utensils left behind by previous renters.

This unit is well maintained, and has with adequate amenities for a longer stay. Garage parking is a plus. Park just at the end of the street is great for kids and includes a off-leash dog area. Boardwalk is a easy 10 minute walk along with beach, markets and restaurants all close by.

This rental was perfect for our weekend stay in Santa Cruz. It was minutes from downtown and the Boardwalk and 15mins from other local attractions. The apartment was exactly as it was in the pictures and off-street parking was a bonus! The neighborhood was lovely and very safe and just a few minutes walk to the local park. Would recommend highly.
