Dore's place was the 2nd stop on a California Coastal trip that my wife, kids and I took. The location is awesome. A 2 minute walk down a little alley leads right to the ocean. Our kids had a blast and my wife and I loved our walks in the morning with coffee down to the relaxing area on the cliffs. The house is small but very cozy for a family or a small group of people. I would definitely stay here again and we will recommend to our friends and family to stay here if they are ever in Santa Cruz.
