This is a really lovely property that's definitely geared towards couples looking to get away with access to a Jacuzzi in every room. We did stay here during the COVID-19 pandemic and Jen advised us in advance that enhanced cleaning measures were in place to keep guests safe (including wiping down remotes/knobs, cleaning sheets/pillows on high heat).
PROS: The room was definitely sparkling clean, and we felt very safe here! The in-room Jacuzzi was a dream and worked very well (with jets!). Perfect way to unwind after a long day, and it was lovely waking up to the beautiful trees outside. The location was also terrific - it was remote enough for folks looking to get away for peace and quiet, but a short 15-minute drive away from downtown Santa Cruz, Capitola, and several beaches, parks, and golf courses. Jen provided a great list of recommendations in advance of our visit. When the power went off in our room unexpectedly, she addressed it right away, which we really appreciated. It was a great value for the price.
CONS: The room looks as advertised, but a few features weren't functional while we were there, such as the double shower head and electric fireplace (heat worked, but no flames). Also, the WiFi connectivity was very spotty while on the property and we had no service otherwise because it is in a remote area. It took a while before I could connect on my phone (a little better on the PC), and some messages I sent to Jen didn't go through until the next day. Not a big deal if you are on vacation/looking to get away, but just something to know if you need to work/have access to reliable Internet or phone service while on the property.
Also, something to note - this Airbnb listing does not advertise breakfast as being offered at this property, though it is advertised as a bed and breakfast elsewhere. When I looked up Sand Rock on Trip Advisor and other sites, it seems like breakfast is offered, but perhaps not when you book through Airbnb. I was not expecting it because it wasn't advertised on Airbnb, so this isn't a knock against the property, but just an FYI for those who might expect it after looking it up elsewhere like I did. If you'd like to wake up to breakfast, perhaps try calling the property first.
