There is nothing like being on the beach. Literally! To sleep with the sound of the waves crashing is priceless. This home was immaculate and had everything you could possibly need. Holly was available and attentive with any questions we asked. Our kids loved the pool and we loved sitting on the upper deck looking at the ocean. Aptos is a cute little town and we liked it better than Santa Cruz. We will definitely be back and plan to stay longer next time.
