We had a wonderful experience with staying at this home in Santa Cruz. My husband and I were traveling with three friends and enjoyed everything about the house. We were greeted with a delicious loaf of rosemary sourdough bread and chocolate and a clean and inviting home. The space was great for 2 couples and 1 additional person who stayed in the back area where the hammock is. The backyard was spacious, sunny and was a very nice place for our group to hang out. The location was great as well. The house is in a beautiful neighborhood. We walked everywhere we went during our stay (we walked to restaurants down by the boardwalk, down in the main shopping area, we were able to walk to CVS, a great bakery called Emily's). We would all highly recommend this host and location!! It has been our best Airbnb experience yet.
