Wow! We so enjoyed our stay at the Ocean Rose! Our family was visiting from TX, and couldn't get enough of the views of the ocean. We were very impressed by how inviting and well stocked the kitchen was. The open floor plan around the kitchen is a perfect design for a large family gathering like ours. We ate many meals around the bar and table, and enjoys drinks and grilled out on the patio. We walked to the beach daily, sometimes twice, and enjoyed the sleepy feel of the town and the off-the-beaten-path of the neighborhood. We used the bikes to explore the town and had fun the with ping pong table too! The trundle bed was a hit, as was the bunk beds. We blow up an air mattress and had 2 more children sleep in the laundry room. We fit 10 comfortably for 4 nights. Thank you for making our time in Aptos so relaxing-- we felt spoiled for sure! :) -Katie Leestma
