The location is amazing walking distance to the best beach in Santa Cruz. The local coffee shops and Taquerias are perfect.
I already knew this going into the property but Eastcliff Drive can get a little noisy with vehicle traffic at night but that’s expected
9.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Feb 2026
We love being able to walk to dinner and to breakfast within a few blocks. It was great walking down to the beach with our dog! The separate bedroom was nice, and we enjoyed the living room for relaxing and the dining table for dinner one night. The kitchen was thoughtfully supplied.

Super clean and cozy. Great location with short walk to beach.
Very small rooms but that’s to be expected.
