Bed and breakfast holiday rentals in Santa Cruz County

Delia was a wonderful host! The space was beautiful & very peaceful. The whole experience was just what we needed for our birthday weekend! Delia was very thoughtful and friendly. I would absolutely recommend this beautiful space for anyone looking for a weekend getaway!

What a GEM this house is!!! You will not be disappointed staying at Shari's home! From the great communication & responsive host ... to the welcoming cookies... to the private adorable backyard and extensive amenities ... it has it ALL! Great location all around and just a short walk to the beach too! We will definitely be back!

Very thankful for this quaint experience! The kids loved the toys and the very kind neighbor helped make sure we had chargers for all the electric toys.

Absolutely lovely! The hosts were welcoming and the room was clean with everything we could have needed. It was a short walk to the boardwalk, the wharf, a bowling alley, and the 'casino'. The garden is beautiful and I loved learning about the history of the house. Adriana was very cute with the breakfast and making sure we were comfortable. I love that it is an actual BnB with the opportunity to chat with fellow travelers! I would love to visit again.

Adriana and Constantin were great hosts. Adriana went out of her way to ensure we had everything we needed and we’re constantly fed with snacks. Breakfast was great! I stayed at this location for the Ironman and it was close to the pier and depot park. Everything was walkable. I would recommend for this place for future athletes or just a nice B&B getaway!

Adriana was the perfect hostess! This property is an easy walk to the Santa Cruz Wharf. My son completes the half triathlon yesterday. We had a great stay.

I was possibly the worst guest ever- booking last minute not communicating properly then turning up four hours early. All my own fault. Eden and Craig took it all in their stride, welcomed me and were full of useful information and recommendations. They describe the place accurately- it’s beautiful and hand crafted- i loved it- the location is magical. if you are looking for hotel style accommodation in a place that looks like everywhere else then you are better off booking a holiday inn or similar. I have used Airbnb for a decade across 20 countries now. This stay embodied the magic of Airbnb. If you want to stay with a creative and hospitable people for an unforgettable few nights in stunning romantic surroundings - then this is for you. It fed my soul. I’ll never forget it. I can’t offer higher praise. Thank you. 🙏

Cliff house is a cozy, peaceful place to be. We came for our son's graduation and stayed a week, and Adriana and Constantine were lovely, kind hosts, with many stories to tell. Breakfast, conversation, beautiful garden and porch for relaxing, and a fantastic location. We hope to stay there again.

We had a lovely stay at Nancy and Roger's place. They are lovely people and make you feel right at home in their beautiful house. We really enjoyed the patio and seeing many different birds in the morning. The room is comfortable and exceptionally well stocked with snacks and breakfast items. We'll definitely stay here again next time we're in the area!

It was a lovely experience and everything was perfect! Breakfast was great; fresh fruit and eggs, and it was so nice to sit outside and eat. And fun to chat with Madelyn. What a gem!

Beautiful home. Very comfortable room with a lovely deck to relax. Patsy & Hans were perfect hosts who made us feel very welcome.

Hard to find a better priced place with this level of modernity and space. As others have mentioned it's a windy drive from highway 17, about 35 minutes from Santa Cruz, 20 minutes from Los Gatos (really cool town), and 30 minutes from San Jose. Of course, the semi-remote location is part of the appeal - redwood trees all around the yard, visible from inside the house, and all around beautiful steep terrain. The attached home is great - super comfortable couch in the living room, great bed in the bedroom, kitchenette and spacious bathroom.

Marc was a fantastic host—friendly, welcoming, and incredibly attentive. He helped with our bags, prepared a delicious breakfast each morning, chilled our champagne, and kept a steady supply of fresh fruit available throughout our stay. He was also very responsive and offered excellent recommendations. We highly recommend Marc’s place to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

I needed a last minute room in Santa Cruz for a wedding. I stayed in the main house and the room was tidy and clean. The space was quirky but comfortable. Sharon was responsive and helpful. I enjoyed hearing the sounds from the amusement park out the windows.

Roger and Nancy were amazing guests, they made us feel like we were in our own home, they gave us tips to places to visit and they shared a cup of wine in the living room of their beautiful house. We enjoyed viewing the hummingbirds in the porch and a lot of other wild birds. We look forward to come back some day.
