My dog and I stayed here Jan-April 2018. Of all the airbnbs I've stayed in (approx. 30 from the South of France to Manhattan to Maui) this one ranks #1. First, this is a stand alone house with nothing between you and the 180 degree view of ocean that spans from Pacific Grove on the far left, to Santa Cruz on the far right. Wide open water full of wildlife: whales, dolphins, and seals can be seen from your living room! You're on a cliff above the sand, yet so close to the water that you hear the waves 24/7 which is aka True Delight. There is a great walk down to the beach (10 minutes, or do 'the loop' which is a great workout and takes about 50 minutes.) Added comfort: Linens are good quality. There is great new flooring (cozy high end carpet only in the bedroom, dog friendly flooring everywhere else), a large high-res TV, and a full size refrigerator and oven. There are dining tables inside and out. The hosts are warm and friendly; kind and genuine people. The location is fantastic, in a quiet residential neighborhood about five minutes off the main road. There's a great gourmet grocery store "Deluxe Foods" 5 minutes away. Also 5 minutes away is golf. There is a fantastic rib place and a superb casual French restaurant also about 5 minutes away. You can drive into Santa Cruz in just minutes for great music at night, south to Carmel for a great day trip, and east through the redwoods to the convenient San Jose airport in 'Silicon Valley.' Parking is also extremely convenient, on the left of the driveway in a dedicated space! This is a great quiet place. I highly recommend it to a person or couple who wants a peaceful, quiet, and beautiful getaway.
