The home is beautiful and stocked with amenities such as towels, bedding, beach equipment, dog bowls, laundry necessities, and even coffee grounds. The home was very clean and inviting and the backyard was great. The beds were all very comfortable with plenty of blankets. The home is located within 20 minutes of everything. The boardwalk is about 20 minutes away, Capitola Village is less than ten minutes away, and the Mystery Spot was 20 minutes away. It is close to shopping and restaurants. The beach that is a short walk away is a bit deceiving. The beach is maybe 150 yards wide and not one that you can set up an umbrella and spend the day. The tide is very high and mainly for surfing and locals who were not very welcoming of us out of towners. Overall we had a wonderful quick getaway and highly recommend staying at this beautiful vacation home. The owner, Akemi, was so sweet and wonderful to talk to.

Casa La Serina was so much fun! The cottage is clean, comfortable and wonderfully decorated. It's conveniently located. We were able to walk to the beach, Capitola pier area, and into town for shopping. We will definitely be back.

First off the communication from the owner is great, secondly the location of this property is perfect. We stayed here with our daughter and twin 4 year old granddaughters. They just loved "their" beach house, which is very comfortable and very well appointed. The owner has gone the extra mile in providing everything you would need for a wonderful stay. We will be coming back!

Great location and really liked the layout of the home. it was very comfortable and there was two living room areas for us and the kids. The only things that I would say should be addressed is that the shower heads need to be replaced/fixed. It would also be nice to get a filtered water option since there is no automatic icemaker or water in the refrigerator door. The communication was wonderful.

Great location, close to the ocean and walking distance to shopping, dining. Lots of options. We walked over for a coffee shop/ice cream outing one afternoon which was nice. Plenty of gear provided for our kids and us adults. Bikes, beach cart, fully stocked laundry area, coffee, etc. Just plan to bring your own shampoo/conditioner as Santa Cruz no longer allows the mini sizes to be offered. Akemi was quick to respond to our questions and a gracious host. It's a charming property, we loved it!
