The host made us feel very welcome; We called before arrival and host was very accommodating. House is very neat and clean with a beach theme throughout. Nice dining area for eating, and games.

Fully stocked with the necessary towels, shampoos, paper products and kitchen supplies. Washer & Dryer perfect. Parking was easy right out front with passes.

Within five minutes to paddle boarding (down at the Crow Nest), Cafe El Palomar (good and reasonable Mexican on the beach), 2 cafes and Deke's Market on 7th where you can get everything you need. Five minutes by car to Hwy 1. The Elk Slough at Moss Landing was awesome - kayaks, seals, tons of sea otters and only 30 minutes down Hwy 1, Aquarium in Monterrey can not be missed. House location great except it it on the corner of Haven and Eaton Street.

Bikes worked and there is a bike path close by for a cruise through the Gulch which has a long history in the Santa Cruz area.

TV and WiFi were perfect. We had two teenage boys and two adults with place to have variable sleeping arrangements between the bunks, the back bedroom, and the couches.

Over all good experience for the family.
