We had a wonderful time at the Holiday house for four days. The home is very clean and well stocked. The home looks to have recently been updated (paint ,windows etc) while at the same time keeping, some of the lovely original finishes (kitchen and bathroom tile, hardwood floors upstairs). The layout of the home is great. You walk into a landing area from the front door, and have stairs that go down to two spacious bedrooms, and stairs that go up to the common living areas. The layout makes this home feel quite large. The icing on the cake for this home are the multiple deck spaces. Both bedrooms open up into a very large deck on the first level. The view from the upper deck to the ocean is very nice. My young boys enjoyed the treehouse and the open field in the back. Many things to do in the area, Monterey, Capitola, and Santa Cruz are all a short drive away. Gail was a pleasure to communicate with and answered all of my questions! We will definitely visit this home again!
