2 bedroom Rio Del Mar Apt - Stunning Ocean Views
This place was exactly what my family needed for our beach getaway! The layout of the house is so cozy and it felt like a home away from home. The 180’ of ocean views was truly amazing. We watched a pod of humpback whales go back and forth throughout the day and got to watch a feeding frenzy of thousands of birds all from the balcony! We drove 20 minutes to Henry Cowell Redwoods State park and walked around Pacific Ave in Santa Cruz. From the spot we walked to the beach (with all our boogie boards, sand toys, towels, umbrella, etc.), took advantage of Venus’ happy hour and really didn’t need to use our car for two days! This will definitely be a spot we stay at again!

Seascape Ocean Front Villa
Beautiful location, very clean and place was perfect for me and my family. Will be booking again

Beautiful Large 4BR Home with POOL
Immaculately maintained, spacious property. Very relaxing. Close to all the necessary shops. Well equipped for families.

Redwood Oasis - Private Heated Pool by State Park!
Place is exactly as described. Glad we asked about the heated pool and got it heated during our stay. June was still chilly at night and would have made the pool too cold to swim in for mots of the day without heating. Place was clean and exactly as described.

La Selva Seaside Sanctuary
Wonderful host and an ideal place in a very quiet neighborhood with friendly and helpful neighbors. The provided area guides and home instructions were extremely helpful and the provided beach supplies were ideal to keep our personal packing nice and light! Would definitely stay here again ⛱️👍🌊

Relax Watch Waves Crash Chic + Modern 3BD
The decor was delightful! Very well outfitted with everything you need.beds super comfy. Really good size. We had more than enough room. I appreciate that Crystal saw no issue with my service dog joining us. I was a bit disappointed that you had to be on the balcony to see the beach. There was a complex in the front blocking most of the view from indoors. I also had issue with parking. The garage was only for small cars and the street parking was inconsistent and required several steps. My handicapped daughter found it a bit difficult. The area was not easily walked being on a very very steep hill. I wish there were more info in the description. All in all, it was a gorgeous place and really clean, highly recommend for non handicapped folks.

Old Amesti Schoolhouse mid-bay amidst farmland
This is a unique, spacious, comfortable, beautiful, clean and fun place to stay. We had eight people in our group — four kids (3rd grader to 8th grader) and four adults (two couples). So much space to spread out, relax, read, play games, socialize, cook, eat, work (if needed), swim, soak in the hot tub, and just explore the property and the surrounding area. We hope to be back. Thank you to our hosts for sharing this place — and for being so welcoming and also responsive if we had a question.

Nuby's Bed & Breakfast (SCC Permit #251085)
Our stay at Alex and Nuby’s place was such a nice family getaway. The beautiful pool, hot tub, and campfire area among the redwoods made it feel outdoorsy without actually having to tent camp. The kitchen is spacious and fun to cook in. Very modern appliances and large windows to make it feel airy as we prepped. A nice BBQ and outside deck to dine on as well. The entire place is spacious, clean, and cozy.

Riverview Beach Bungalow
We loved our time here and wished we could have stayed longer. The location is so serene and peaceful, but just a short (beautiful!) walk to all of the action. The house is well stocked with everything you could need. Terri is a great communicator. We would highly recommend and hope to return!

Short walk to beach - Perfect beach getaway
Louise’s place is always so clean and well stocked. The house is so comfortable and the open floor plan is perfect for evening dinners and game nights after a day at the beach. This year we had a bonus of seeing whales breaching on our evening walks.

Classic Beach House - Walk to Seacliff Beach
We had an excellent stay at this place in Aptos-private yard and house but walkable distance to the beach and nearby restaurants, as well as a cute park which our kids adored. The space was just the right size for our family of four and lots of extra blankets and pillows (amenities we have not always found at other airbnbs) plus beach accessories like sand toys, extra towels, and the outdoor shower which we so appreciate for our little ones. Kitchen was very well equipped which made for some easier kid friendly lunches of Mac n cheese. Hosts were very communicative and able to accommodate an early check in which we appreciated.

Historic Lawnway Cottage
I feel so lucky to have been able to spend 2 nights in this awesome cottage!!! It was my second time in Capitola and I didn’t really understand what Lawn Way was when I booked it. I was so excited when I realized that we would be staying one of these cute colorful historical cottages! Cottage was so clean, comfortable and described exactly. I loved learning about the family history of this cottage... Makes me feel so lucky to have been able to stay here. Bed was super comfy. Super cute inside. Location is unbeatable. The lawn was plush and so nice to lounge on. Perfect!

Spacious 3-Story Home Close To SC Beach Boardwalk
Kimberly is an amazing host, very organized and easy to reach and communicate. The house is spacious and airy, in a walking distance from the beach and Downtown. It is equipped with everything you might need and more. We had a wonderful time and we hope to come back again soon!

Riverview Retreat Duplex-Captiola LOWER UNIT A
This was my second stay at this property, and it was just as great as the first! The location is unbeatable—less than a 5-minute walk to downtown—but still feels quiet and private. The house was exceptionally clean and fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. Highly recommend and will definitely be back again!

Wave House by the Beach for Two!
Location was perfect for walking to the beach and the pier. The river walk to downtown restaurants was close by too. Once we parked our car we never used till it was time to leave. This was great because parking is difficult being so close to the beach. This place is very private and felt safe.

Beach Hill Hideaway - Beach Boardwalk, steps away
Comfortable home that is well located for activity but peaceful. Well appointed and comfortable. Dominique was super responsive

Lovely Home in the Redwoods
I was so blown away by this beautiful property. The house is located in the middle of tall redwood trees and has a very expensive feel. There are several decks in the big driveway and lots of space to go hiking and walking and let your dogs run around the house itself is lovelyand cozy. Very clean nicely decorated. I would go back again and again.

Surf Loft just blocks from Pleasure Point!
Such a beautiful and clean home. Accommodating hosts. We enjoyed our stay.

Sunny, Spacious Capitola Beach Retreat
Had a great stay at this home. Walkable to Capitola Village and a short drive to Santa Cruz. Loved that there was a Trader Joe’s nearby. Enjoyed making meals with family as eating out is so expensive. Bright sunny rooms and very comfortable home. Would definitely stay there again! Thank you Cara for an enjoyable stay.

Bungalow in Capitola Village Steps from River walk
We had a wonderful vacation at this property! This house is cozy (not too spacious) but well worth it considering the price and walkability to shops, restaurants, and the beach. The kitchen had just what we needed to cook breakfast each morning. The kids enjoyed the loft area, Nintendo and board games. Parking: We parked in the public lot for the first two days. It's a very short walk to the house and if you use the app, you can extend your time as needed from your phone. Warm rooms: we found it difficult to get the room and loft cooled down (in June) enough for my husband and son to be comfortable at bedtime, but they both get easily overheated. the fan helped. As for me, I was just fine! Overall, we had a very enjoyable stay and would stay again.

Hottub, Firepit, Outdoor TV | Walk to Beach
We were impressed by how clean the house was. It was a great location to walk to some restaurants and the coast. We parked one van street side and one van in the driveway as it was really tight to get out of the car on one area of the drive. There were chairs, bikes, and beach towels available. We didn’t get a chance to use the hot tub or fire pit. Wish we had more time there. We had one issue but Veronica was quick to reply and resolve it. We would stay again!

Walk to Beach | Spa, Outdoor Kitchen + TV, Firepit
Property is Spotless inside and outside. Love how clean the bathrooms are! Kitchen was lovely with the retro feel and easy to find things! Beautiful backyard! Overall, I love the house This place is bright and clean! We will be back!!

Designer Newly Built Capitola Village Bungalow
This is a beautiful house in a great location. We especially appreciated the beach supplies, coffee, and outdoor shower. The beds were very comfortable and everyone slept well. Greta was friendly and highly responsive, even though she was on vacation herself at the time. Thanks for a fantastic stay!

Vaquita House, with access to Privates Beach
we are in town for my daughter‘s wedding and used this for myself and staging on day of wedding. I can’t stay enough about Vaquita’s house. The place is awesome right across the street from the beach, walking distance to all amenities, coffee bars, and restaurants. John was super awesome and hospitable and accommodating all deal details about check-in and check out clearly spelled out on the book by the front door the place was clean, almost like it had just been cleaned linens refresh and clean, not overly used ,bathroom amenities were awesome. Can’t say enough about this place. It’s worth every penny that you pay probably even more. You’re literally right next to one of the greatest surfing spots on the West Coast
