Dore’s place was perfect for our family. The Hideaway is right off of East Cliff drive. The dirt road that leads to the ocean reminded us of the North Shore or Costa Rica. The Hideaway is not a flashy refurbished rental- it’s has a rootsy and homey vibe. The space is small but well-equipped with everything you need. There are thoughtful touches throughout the house and we never felt crowded. We used the outside space a lot. If you are looking for a true Santa Cruz experience... stay here! You can walk to coffee, cafe’s and shops. There is so much to do around the town. My husband skated the local skate parks and we hiked Big Sur, Wilder’s Ranch, and Henry Cowell’s state park. We look forward to returning tonSanta Cruz and the Hideaway.
