8 Palms has it ALL! This charming bungalow has so many amenities and details that you don’t expect. Ted is a highly responsive host who goes the extra mile to make sure his guests feel comfortable. Not only is the home in a great location that is convenient to many Santa Cruz attractions, retail, and beach access, but the kitchen is one of the most well-equipped AirBnB kitchens I’ve encountered. We were two couples who stayed in the bungalow and enjoyed several of the local restaurants (all within walking distance,) and also the charming patio space that is perfect for a barbeque. Beds are very comfortable, and the furnishings cozy and inviting. We wish we could have stayed longer it was such a pleasure. You would be hard pressed to find accommodations that offer this level of comfort and convenience. The neighborhood was great and we enjoyed just walking around and checking out the diverse gardens and plants. What a find!
