About this house rental

Summary
Coastal Living Style home with a nautical flair, perfectly perched right on the water with panoramic ocean views. Spend your days soaking up the sunshine on the oceanfront patio, complete with a gas grill, fire pit, and outdoor dining sets and lounges. A second lower patio offers even more space.
Inside, unwind in the cozy bay window with a good book, gather around the fireplace for games, or simply watch dolphins, surfers, and even the occasional whale pass by.
Stroll along the newly paved oceanfront promenade on East Cliff and grab a bite & coffee at the "Pleasure Point Cafe" around the bend, in a casual beach atmosphere. Fun fact: this area is home to the surf film Chasing Mavericks!

Great location right on ocean. Clean and comfortable.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Sep 2025
Beautiful location, great outdoor space with plenty of seating. We didn’t love the 2 separate units and lack of air conditioning! The listing should be updated to include this info. Overall a pleasant stay. Thank you!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2025
We had a great stay! The views are truly incredible! Sitting outside during sunset and listening to the waves crash was so peaceful. The location was great and we enjoyed driving to downtown Santa Cruz, Monterey and Carmel by the sea. We went grocery shopping and were happy to see that the kitchen had everything we needed. Thanks for a great stay!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Apr 2025
Although the beautiful view could not be surpassed, the space needs a refresh. First impressions: the musty smell was a turnoff; the bed and kitchen linens were worn and dingy; outdoor seat cushions were past their prime; and there was no spare TP or paper towels. These things could easily be rectified.Access to the upstairs is through the garage. This should be noted for anyone with children.Good things - adequate parking, clean updated bathrooms, the host provided a high chair, and a nice common area. The kitchen was fine, and we appreciated the large refrigerator and coffee makers.
