    Erin S recommends this vacation rental

    Our family of 4 greatly enjoyed this lovely home. The main living area and primary bedroom are like being on a ship at sea. The views are amazing. The beds were all very comfortable and the home was clean. The washer and dryers were nice to have/use. The furniture/decor is dated but perfectly fine for the price point. My main comment for improvement would be leaving a few pods for the Keurig machine or some ground coffee for the pot.

    The deck is the only good thing about this property
    The floors are especially dirty
    Guest suite is mildew
    Flies on front patio / outdoor shower not user friendly
    Get rid of all the dirty fake plants in house & make garage de clutter junk
    Bikes rusty & in average shape
    Windows are dirty
    Hard to access laundry machine
    Should have good kitchen pots & pans
    With that rent - buy new for summer rentals
    Didn’t even have a can opener
    All cabinets filled with useless junk

    a guest from los altos, ca recommends this vacation rental

    The location is wonderful... everything is nearby and beach is literally right there! Home itself is clean and again views are wonderful from the main living area and master bedroom loft. We found the main floor stone floors to be really cold so bring slippers. Also, the kitchen doesn't provide for some basic items such as baking sheets and can opener is almost non-functional. Otherwise, we found most items to be available and clean. Bikes, surf boards, and body boards were nice to have on hand. Getting in and out of the house is a little tricky as the driveway is short and the road is busy. Small atrium and outdoor shower are nice touches to make for a peaceful getaway.

    This house is amazing, a wonderful location with a fantastic view. I stayed at the property with my wife and children. A perfect beach is 3 doors down to play with the kids on the beach. The home was very comfortable and clean and located close to shopping and a bike ride to nice scenery. I would highly recommended staying at this property.

    Mark D recommends this vacation rental

    Right on the Pacific!! It would be difficult to find a nicer beachfront home than this one!! We lived on the deck-tanned on the deck, watched the sailboat races at dusk on the deck, danced on the deck and bbq'ed on the deck. Well equipped 4 bedroom, 3 bath house-comfy beds, TV's in every room-big flat screen TV in family room. 2 car garage, nice for storage etc. Midway between Santa Cruz & Capitola on fairly busy East Cliff Dr. Close to SC Harbor, restaurants, shopping etc. Very high rental rate. Will need some updating soon.

    Stunning property with lots of amenities! We stayed here with 2 parents, 3 kids and 2 grandparents. There was plenty of room for everyone and all the rooms were nicely decorated and comfortable. There were boogie boards, sand toys, bikes and surfboards---the house has it all! We're looking forward to staying here again in the future!

    Lovely, comfortable, well-maintained home. Stunning views. We have teenagers who found the beach access easy, despite the rocks. Basically a private beach once you get down there. Location cannot be beat. Pleasure Point within a few blocks; walk to The Point for delicious take out. Newer appliances, pots and pans galore. Plenty of space for everyone to stretch out and wonderful, large deck. Looking forward to staying here again!

    Joan P does not recommend this vacation rental.

    Amazing house but NO ACCESS TO BEACH, unless you are able to climb down huge slippery boulders. Also only a tiny sliver of beach at extreme low tides. Very deceptive description. Walking on road to beach dangerous as heavy traffic and no place to walk on road. Dishwasher did NOT work. House not very clean. Very dirty dusty fake plants everywhere. No dish towels. Ran out of toilet paper before end of stay. Not worth the beachfront price. Had better choices for same price.

    Our family really enjoyed our vacation at this home. The location is great and just a short walk to the beach. Beds and pillows were plush, and the home is spacious and decorated in stylish “Beach” theme. The deck overlooking the water is AMAZING! We will return next year, for sure. Thank you for sharing your home with us

    We rented this home to celebrate my dads 80th birthday. When he saw the view from his room (the master bedroom) he had tears in his eyes. This home is beautifully decorated with every convenience provided. Tara was wonderful to deal with.
