Lief's house was a wonderful place to stay in Santa Cruz. My family and I rented the house for an extended stay while we relocated to the area and very happy. The house was clean and had everything we needed to sleep comfortably, relax, and cook at home. The garden is a lovely place to hang out and the neighborhood is quiet. The location can't be beat either, as it is centrally located for Santa Cruz and Capitola/Aptos. I highly recommend booking Lief's house.
