Hal was an amazing host for our recent weekend in Santa Cruz. The location was within walking distance of great restaurants, entertainment, and the beach--exactly as described. The house was perfect for our family of four, and had everything that we needed for a comfortable stay. Hal was extremely accommodating and flexible with our scheduled arrival and departure times, and even allowed us to bring our dog with us. I would happily return to Hal's Seabright listing, without hesitation.
