We were so happy that we found Lilian's home and it was available for us. It has so much to offer and is well appointed and stocked. The sound of the water fountain and wind chimes in the side yard are so calming, and you can also open the balcony doors to two of the bedrooms and hear the ocean. We enjoyed sitting outside one night around the fire pit. It just was a real "find", and Lilian was very responsive and answered all of our questions. If you want to stay in Santa Cruz, be close to the water and be in a quiet neighborhood, you will enjoy this house! You can also enjoy the bright, beautiful artwork inside the home.
