Beautiful Ranch Home "Buena Vista"

CindyRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
Madeline’s place was just as described. She was very easy to communicate with and made it easy to check in and check out. She was available if needed and privacy and peaceful surroundings were a part of this beautiful home. Madeline was also kind enough to mail back an item left behind. She was very friendly and I would stay here again. It was a nice and beautiful place to relax at, great yard and also a local and short few minutes drive to restaurants and things to do.

Seaside Sunshine 3bd/2bth sleeps 8

ErikRating, 5 stars9 months ago
This was our third year using Donna’s home for our week-long annual trip to the Monterey peninsula. We have always been pleased with our stay, and this year was no different. Donna’s home has everything a family or group could need. The home has always been clean and tidy. It’s located in a quiet neighborhood, and very close to most of the points of interest in this area including golf courses, the popular Monterey Bay Aquarium/Fisherman’s Wharf, and Laguna Seca Raceway. Her communication has been friendly and clear - no troubles to speak of. If you are considering a stay in this area, either short or longer term, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it!

Best Beach House Santa Cruz-Opal Cliff Beach House

GraceRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Joyce’s place was clean and had a really great location. We thought we were right on the Cliff so that was kind of a bummer to have a house in front of our ocean view. But the place was really nice, and very clean! The space was really cool and had great decoration. Beds were comfortable. Kids were happy. We loved playing in the hot tub and in the garden in the backyard.

This rental is in a class all of its own. We walked around the first 30-45 minutes upon entering admiring the incredible decor of Kathy's rental. She truly truly cares about your stay and could not have been a better host or communicator. Our stay was a vacation of a lifetime and this rental is an absolute gem, and so is Kathy!

Magnolia Garden Bungalow :)Dogs/Hot Tub

CarolynRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Sara's home was lovely and comfortable. Her gardens on the side of the house and outside a bedroom in front, were tranquil, colorful, magical places. I daydreamed about how she must have planted in stages over the years, planning blooms for the different seasons and assisted by her obvious green thumb. The kitchen was well equipped, and the home had everything we needed. Sara was very welcoming, leaving us a beautiful flower arrangement, and a water bowl and squeaking and crinkling toy for our dogs.

Short walk to beach - Perfect beach getaway

AnnetteRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Louise’s place was absolutely wonderful, and she was an exceptional host. The home was spacious and had the cutest porch—perfect for sitting around and catching up with my group of girlfriends. The neighborhood was peaceful and walkable, with easy access to Sea Cliff Beach and nightly visits to Marianne’s Ice Cream, which became a favorite treat. It was also a short, convenient drive to both Capitola and Santa Cruz. Louise was incredibly flexible and accommodating throughout our stay. She even went out of her way to help us retrieve an item we accidentally left behind. I would 100% recommend staying here!
