This home is absolutely wonderful. Its in a stellar location not far from the beach, Santa Cruz, Monterey, and shopping. It is modern, well decorated, and in a safe location. The kitchen holds every single item you could possibly need. Making our own meals is an important part of travel for our family and it was extremely easy. The backyard is resort like with an outside seating area in the sun for the cool weather, or one secluded in the shade with a television for outside viewing. Beds, bedding, towels, and all furniture is in great shape and super cute. Check in and check out were without hiccup. But most importantly, this home was CLEAN. Super clean. From the kitchen drawers to the bedding and bathrooms it was clean beyond expectation. The absolute only thing to note about this home is that while private and safe it does back up to a commercial building and both mornings we were there we woke early to what sounded like garbage trucks. It lasted for about 30 minutes and started about 6 am on a Monday and Tuesday morning. The sound could be heard in the master bedroom but not in the other two bedrooms. It was unexpected but not a deterrent. We will definitely be staying here again!
