It was just perfect! Nice and clean flat with new furniture, well equipped, very good location. Grocery store on the other side of the street, restaurants etc. nearby. Very nice beaches too, and not too far! This was an ideal place for our family. And Hallie was so so nice host! Se took care of us; she gave us bikes, and even found an english teacher to our children. And much more. Respecting the nature with organic choices and water saving program, very good! We definitely recommend this those who want to enjoy Santa Cruz!
