Good location if your looking to go out it’s close to Capitola & Santa Cruz. We had a car and the hosts allows parking in their driveway which is a plus. Restaurants and downtown area are within 10 minutes so either drive or uber. Walking around to beaches is easy it’s mostly surfers so great people watching. Good neighborhood you can walk to 1 market & coffee shop. Bring your own beach chairs & cooler if you want to set up for a beach day.
