My family and I had a great experience staying in Cathy and Andre's home. The home was clean and quiet, with an impressive display of indoor/outdoor plants, and an assortment of local bird species that seemed to be enjoying the outdoor feeder and yard. We'd definitely book again during a future trip to Santa Cruz!

My wife and I loved the house. Block and a half from the beach. Sunset every night and lower tide walks on the beach. The house had everything we needed. Every little touch is thought out by the owner. The hot tub was great to use a few times a day/night. Lovely quiet neighborhood with peaceful bird sounds most of the day. The kitchen had everything we needed for our stay. Very comfy living room and bed too. We will rent this house again if it’s available for another stay when we get down that way. It’s a great house for a family with a kid or two or just a couple on a getaway vacation. Very safe and quiet neighborhood walks too in either direction.

We loved this house! The front yard is amazing and very relaxing. We enjoyed the hot tub and hammock in the backyard. The location is great and a short walk from the beach. The house was exactly how the pictures looked. Would definitely stay here again.
