This house is quintessential Santa Cruz - totally artistic and creative with a relaxed vibe. We had an amazing family stay with kids and grandparents. The location is fantastic - just a few blocks from the Boardwalk and Pier. It's also just a short 5 minute drive to downtown. The layout was just great, and the two kitchens were well stocked. The outdoor area is spacious and well-furnished. This house has it all and the amazing art and decor made it a memorable experience. My kids will always remember their stay at "the purple house"!
