Comfy, close to beach

The bungalow was clean and comfortable, and just a quick walk to the beach. Time at the beach, followed by a soak in the hot tub made this a perfect visit.

Nice couple of days in Aptos

Everything was great in the place. One minor suggestion would be to change the location of the sofas since it's easier to see the tv if the big sofa is facing it.

Relaxing getaway

The perfect set up for me, my husband & our dog. Welcoming private bungalow in quiet neighborhood, spotlessly clean, spacious, full kitchen, fenced yard with large hot tub, just short walk to beach & eateries (didn't have to use our car at all). Overall comfortable & easy for an enjoyable, & much needed, respite during these stressful times. Thanks Liz!!

Elopement Getaway

Our group enjoyed our stay! The perfect place for 3 adults and a large dog. We had our elopement in the Redwoods and this place provided adequate space for all three of us to get ready. House was fully stocked with everything you'd need. Although we didn't need it, they had many items for children both inside the home and the backyard. Having a stress-free place to stay was highly appreciated for our event.

Beach house in Aptos

The house has been remodeled. Appliances are great. Shower is great. Couches, not all that comfortable,. Needs new fresh towels in bath. I bought a spatula and prep knife. Needs updated kitchen sets….dishes, prep utensils, storage containers with lids. Great location…walk to the beach. Parking handy..

Beach Get A Way with a relaxing Back Yard

We come to this area 1-2 times a year. This property is a great location, very clean, well equipped kitchen, loved the clean hot tub and the backyard. Instructions to operate fireplace were helpful & the hidden switch for backyard outside lighting(behind the Murphy Bed, a little tricky). Never found TV directions. Close to Rio Del Mar Beach (Walkable) and Aptos Village (by car). Only negative was the dog in front house (B) barked when we came and went. But that’s what they do~
