If you love funky old Santa Cruz beach bungalows, this house is for you. It's funky. It has that patchwork feel that these old houses have when plumbing and electrical was put in after the house was built. It was great for our family of five, but if I had toddlers, I wouldn't feel comfortable with them on those stairs.
The location was perfection - steps from the beach, a 10 minute walk to the boardwalk and 5 minute walk to restaurants & coffee shop.
Upon arrival at check in time, the house had clearly not been cleaned. I called Sabina and she came right over to get to work. It turned out that the housekeeper was sick and her backup was a no-show. Sabina sent us to the beach for a couple house while she began cleaning. She also refunded our cleaning fee. It wasn't ideal, but life happens and we all have to roll with it. Sabina did her best to make it right and gave us a late checkout so we could enjoy more time at the beach on our last day.
