Sara is a fantastic hostess. You will want for nothing during your stay. There are great restaurants and markets within walking distance. If you prefer to cook, she has a fully stocked kitchen with everything from a fondue pot to an ice cream maker. Her home is decorated beautifully, but comfortably with the added bonus of her beautiful artwork on every wall.
Traveling with our dogs was easy. Sara welcomed and them with thoughtful bowls, waste bags and toys. Her house has a lovely yard for them. If you go out, the cities of Santa Cruz and Capitola offered many dog friendly restaurants and beaches.
