Ecologically conscious, internationally-minded, well-travelled, open and friendly, active, respectful, responsible single mother of 3 amazing young men!
My teenage daughter & I stayed one night in Claudine's cozy treehouse -- what fun! like camping in the sky with a comfy bed and a roof over your head. My daughter used her sleeping bag on a fold-out mat Claudia provided - snug fit for two adults but much roomier than a tent. This 2-person configuration requires the second guest to sleep over the floor hatch, so if you need to get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, both guests have to get up to allow one to exit (this was the...

Claudine was a great host and her two sons were very informative about the area and quite friendly as well. Very warm and friendly atmosphere, with access to all necessary facilities in the house, so be sure not to pass this one up!
She was very accomidating to our schedule and responded quickly to messages. We dd not get to meet Claudine in person as she was gone that weekend, but we were left in the care of her son, who was very nice and helpful. The treehouse was a great experience and actually warmer than the hotel we had the previous night.
The treehouse was great! Claudine's son welcomed us in and gave us a tour.
You should know that to get to the treehouse you have to climb up a 20' rope/limb ladder. It's fun, but if you have a fear of heights this might not be the place for you. A little piece of advice: take your backpack off before you climb up and use the basket and pulley system to bring it up.
Then wake up to birds and sunshine :)
Staying in Claudine's treehouse was truly an incredible and unique experience. She was very flexible in accommodating my last minute schedule and provided more than I could have asked for including a recommendation to a great Sri Lankan restaurant within walking distance. I would absolutely stay here again!
Claudine was wonderful. She told us all about her experience as an Airbnb host and how must she enjoys her visitors. She raved about Airbnb's customer service and said it has been a great year hosting for her. We also had a great expereince in her treehouse. It has plugs-ins and wifi and is very comfortable! I have been telling evryone about my time in her tree and many of my freinds are looking into booking mini-adventures on Airbnb. Thank you Claudine for your kindess and willingness to... More »
I highly recommend staying at Claudine's place in Santa Cruz. She has designed a truly creative, earthy and beautiful space which fosters relaxation and enjoyment. In addition she is a wonderful and thoughtful hostess.
Claudine is a very personable and helpful host. She went out of her way to help us while we stayed in her "cob" room last weekend. She has the perfect personality to make people feel welcome and at home.
