Lovely place in Santa Cruz

This was a large convenient place to stay close to the wharf, boardwalk and Westcliff. Clean, surprisingly quiet, and a great kitchen well equipped for feeding a large family. Thanks for a fun stay!

Awesome villa at an awesome location

Can't believe how lucky we were to score this villa! We are part of a training group and staying in town for a race in Santa Cruz. This place is so close to the beach, West Cliff Drive, the start and ending areas for our race. The villa itself was clean and nice, with comfortable beds for everyone. Owner and manager were great about checking in with us. The only thing about coming with a group, is that there is only parking for 2 cars, so any additional cars had to park in a different neighborhood, but this was a minor inconvenience for the great location and stay. My housemates and I are looking forward to coming back again!

Thanksgiving get together

Home had plenty of space in all the right places. Especially kitchen, dining and family room. For 5 adults and 3 grandkids. Large table for meals and large table for puzzle and games. Quick manager response for minor needs. Quirky elevator for luggage and ADA use. Fine after short learning curve Walk to beach. Great views from living area and outdoor patio overlooking beach about 2 blocks away. Timely return of full security deposit.

Large and spacious with a terrific location for surfing or Boardwalk. Renting the Penthouse as well was a great choice since this particular unit has restricted ocean viewing from the building next door, and the Penthouse view is spectacular. This is still a great choice, but I would do the second floor the next time. Great communication with the management team.

Great time on the coast

My family spent a long weekend at this property and found the home to be as advertised. The location was great (short walk to the beach/boardwalk/wharf) and the amenities were top of the line. Enjoyed the trip and hope to be back soon.

Your place was very spacious, clean, and has an excellent location.

Our family had a great time because of the excellent location. The beds are very comfortable and rooms are large. The kitchen is beautiful and well-equipped. The evenings were quiet, we did not hear a lot of ruckus going on outside. Little things that maybe we wish there was: a couple of more comfy chairs in the family room. Because the place sleeps 10, we usually have more than two cars. So parking was a little tricky for the third car. ( I appreciated the two spots though. ) It was very nice to have an elevator. My parents are getting older now. Derek was very kind and easy to work with. That always makes a vacation off to a good start.

Alumni women's getaway weekend

While there were lots of rules to follow to the point we were a bit paranoid (and I will be until I receive my full deposit back), having those rules provided us with the ability to understand how to use the unit's amenities and the local regulations required of everyone in a city none of us are from. Management was very communicative while also not being invasive during our stay. The common spaces are gorgeous and useful for our group of eight women, beds comfortable, and everything clean. Just a couple of things to be mindful of - not all windows in common area have curtains, you can sometimes hear people above moving around, and you must be extremely careful when parking and entering/exiting the garage. I LOVED the videos provided to help us see ahead of time how to properly access and use everything. For a group looking for a peaceful getaway, it was perfect.

Lovely place, but…

All the public rooms are beautiful and light filled, the kitchen a masterpiece, but the bedrooms not so much. The small elevator, which serves 3 units , was problematic. While my husband quickly mastered the operating instructions, those in other units did not. As a result getting ourselves, groceries and luggage up and down was frequently difficult. Given my use of a cane,, lack of reliable elevator service was a drawback. In spite of the issues I’ve noted, the unit’s location was wonderful.

Great trip and vacation rental

Property was perfect for our Girls trip. Alex was so helpful and checked during our stay to make certain all was going well. Friends who had never visited Santa Cruz loved our location. Definitely would book this property again. Only recommendation is to provide a few extra blankets, 60+ women get cold.
