This rental was perfect for what we needed - a home for a month while our house was under construction. It is walking distance to good coffee, groceries, restaurants, pharmacy and movies and short driving distance to the beach, Santa Cruz, redwoods. The grounds were surprisingly private and pretty with winding paths through some old growth trees and pretty plants. The hot tub was great to have - my son and partner used it a lot even though it's winter here. Aneesa was so responsive to all our needs. Great for our family with a child under 6 but would be great for a single or couple as well. We had a great stay. Unbeatable for the price.
