Great view, nice location
We thoroughly enjoyed staying here. We walked a block down to the beach everyday. The unit was quiet with amazing views of the ocean. The house rules were a bit much - washing and putting away all of our own dishes and taking all garbage out to the dumpster/bins outside. I’m fine starting a dishwasher of used dishes but putting them away too?! I’m not sure why I paid for housecleaning. Also the VRBO fees are so high now that this may be one of the last times I book through it.

a New Favorite Place
Celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary here and it was perfect for us and 3 dogs. The condo is very clean and modern. There are many places to eat at, if you don't want to cook, and the ocean view is incredible! Parking couldn't be any closer to the unit, and the dogs are able to run around on the deck. We will certainly be back!

Annual beach stay for our mom
We take our mom , who is 95, to the beach every year….this was a perfect setting for us and our doxie KoKo. Perfect kitchen and living arrangements. We have a great stay as more of our family that was in their RV near by, weee able to visit us for dinners and enjoyed the beach down below. If we get a chance will stay there again, even though we love being closer to the beach. The view was outstanding!

Beautiful place
Beautiful, clean, great location, perfect view of ocean! Perfect parking next to apartment. Could use more towels especially bath rugs. It would also be helpful to know what day the garbage pick ups are so we could get it out on time. Overall I would stay here again. We had a good time!

Family vacation with teens & dog
Great view and perfect location for all the things our family wanted to do. It was a quick drive to Capitola and Santa Cruz Boardwalk. Best thing for us was the short walk with our dog to the beach. With the 5 min walk to the beach, we spent a whole day there, using the beach chairs provided in our unit's storage shed on the deck (use bbq key), and running back and forth to our place for snacks, bathroom breaks, etc. Everything was just perfect. We will rent this place again.
