This place is the absolute best location and view. The landscape was impeccable and it was cleaner and more stylish than I expected. The kitchen offered more than other airbnb's I've been to in that they stocked it with free Keurig coffee pods, ziplock bags, aluminum foil, oil, salt and pepper, Tupperware for leftovers... We brought our tiny dog, who could run around freely in the securely fenced in yard that wraps around the entire house, making our lives a ton easier. We took surf lessons right out front so its a perfect location for surfing and/or boogie boarding. There is a gas fireplace in the living room that is so warm and comfy on those cold CA nights. It was a perfect complement to a long day in the ocean. Unfortunately the hot tub wasn't working when we got there but the owner was quick to get it fixed and comped me one's night stay for the inconvenience. So overall, it was a fantastic experience and I will stay here every time I visit Santa Cruz.
