This apartment is a little jewel. It's clean, quiet and comfortable with plenty of space for two people. Tucked behind the main house It's loaded with much-appreciated amenities, plenty of kitchen appliances and quality cookware, and it displays some original art and up to date attractive furnishings. Be prepared to kick off your shoes! The beach and marina are easy walks and the amusement park and wharf can be accessed by a direct path with a bridge over the river. We visited Santa Cruz mid-winter and parking wasn't an issue. I imagine finding parking during peak season would be challenging. Courtney is a thoughtful host and has gone the extra mile to make his guests feel welcome and valued.
