We were two small families of relatives coming together in Santa Cruz for a wedding. This pretty house had everything we needed and was really sweetly decorated. Walking down to the beach (& Java Junction) and back was a perfect way to start the day. The outside barbecue area was fantastic for a fun evening in. We like to cook and found everything we needed in the cute kitchen. Be aware that when there’s a bit of traffic on Eaton Street one can hear it in the downstairs bedroom, but only on the morning of early trash pick-up (Tues) did it disturb at all. The lovely decor and great central location more than made up for it. Great hosts made everything easy and provided everything that any of us needed for a full week with lots of different wants and ages. The departure instructions on this site and in the binder don’t precisely align, but that wasn’t a big deal once we realized that one sister was looking at the info on AirBnB and the other sis read the binder. Thanks for providing a fantastic part of our week together!
