We're a group of 7 friends that just needed some time off together. We've been so busy and wanted to getaway, to catch-up over home-cooked meals, relax and grieve the loss of a close friend. This house comfortably accommodates 7 adults. We had a 9-month old traveling with us and the neighborhood was quiet, allowing multiple naps throughout the day and 7 pm bedtime for the little one. This was the first time in Aptos for all of us and we quickly discovered that the location was perfect. It's about a 15-minute stroll to the beach, nearby local eateries, a great ice cream shop and about a 10-minute drive to Capitola. We definitely will consider staying here again, if planning a trip to the area. Sarah and Marlene (her property manager) were both quick to respond and so friendly. Thank you for making this a wonderful stay for us!
