We loved our stay with Carla and Jesse! The bungalow is newly and tastefully renovated , the photos don't do it justice. The garden is wonderful, you walk thru a little but tall bamboo forest, bump into an apple tree with a great crop, enjoy fresh lemons in front of ' your house' and soak in the hot tub under a huge avocado tree. The worst thing that could happen is that a ripe avocado falls unto your head! For an east coaster an unbeatable deal, I'll take it any day...we also enjoyed walking all over Santa Cruz while sleeping in a quiet neighborhood. Jesse and Carla were perfect hosts, available and full of suggestions when asked but also giving you privacy. I want to go back there soon and for longer!
