Absolutely serene and comfortable space for four in a beautiful home and neighborhood. I loved that it’s located in the Woods yet 5 minutes from the beach! We spent 9 nights at Michael’s Airbnb spacious rooms- 1 master bedroom and living space with access to back patio. Michael welcomed us on our first night and him and his son made themselves available as needed by phone/text. Although we shared the home, our space had a private entrance and felt like we were the only ones there. The residence and neighborhood was very peaceful, which was great for getting a quiet and restful night sleep after very busy active days. We chose this location because it is located in a great spot, although it seems to be tucked away in the woods it’s just 2-3 min from the highways and all surrounding cities. We went for our son’s graduation at UCSC (only 10 min away) and turned it into a 10 day vacation. Our stay there made it possible to daily outdoor activities, lots and lots of hiking trails, starting next door at the State Park, beautiful beaches, including a trip to SF, a day to Muir Woods, and a must drive trip to Big Sur, Coastline. We appreciated the hospitality and having use to a small refrigerator and to coffee and tea. I highly recommend Michael’s airbnb for getting a comfortable and tranquil space in Santa Cruz. You will love your stay here! ~IQ & PQ
