We have stayed at over 10 rental properties in Santa Cruz and this was our favorite.
Management - 5+ stars!
A few examples of how they went above and beyond:
* Our stay happened to overlap a nasty CA wildfire season and management purchased and delivered additional air filters to keep things extra fresh in the home during a week of smoky outside air.
* We stayed 2 months and management arranged additional housecleaning mid stay.
* Every question we asked came with a response almost immediately.
The Location
* We know Santa Cruz well and if you are coming to visit, this is the area you want to set up home base.
*Less than half a mile to a great beach, lighthouse, sailing/fishing charters, stand up paddle board/kayak rentals, harbor, local coffee shops, and restaurants.
* Yet, the home is tucked into a residential community so lends itself to a family friendly environment. This is not a home to bring a loud partying group.
Pets Welcome!
The back yard is fenced and they even have extra doggie beds for Fido
Plenty of Space
* 2 Levels with the lower offering a mini fridge and wet bar.
* Both have, in addition to the bedroom(s) a pull out option in the TV room (both levels have a TV room)
* 2 outdoor sitting areas, one for each level
Cleanliness
The place is spotless, even the inner window sills!
Extras
* The home is filled with toys, books, and games
* We do not have young children so I did not look closely but did see a good bit of necessities such as booster chairs, baby gates, etc.
* Beach chairs and boogie boards are available for use
Enjoy your stay!
