Easy check in, keyless entry. This house may not be that big but the layout was great. The kitchen has been updated and new appliances but I couldn't find where to put the silverware in the dishwasher (hint: there's a pullout shelf on top). They could use some plastic glasses for outside use and new ice trays. Seating for 5 at the dining table and seating for 4 on back patio. We had inconsistent wifi, unfortunately, but the rental agency was working to get it fixed. The bed in the middle bedroom was creaky and the bed frame was falling apart so hopefully that gets fixed. My daughter and SIL had to put the mattress on the floor to get a good night's sleep. The main bed fitted sheet had no elastic so that was annoying. The hot tub was great with access thru the main bedroom and by the front steps. The outside shower has easy access AND hot water! Plenty of parking (a rarity in Santa Cruz). The location is excellent and a 5 minute walk to a nice beach (Moran Beach) and a 10 minute walk to Pleasure Point. There were 4 new beach chairs but bring your own kid toys. The house is at the end of a street and very quiet. This is our third year renting in Santa Cruz and we plan on staying here again.

The Heron House was wonderful. It’s in a great location. The little beach had lots of treasures and the hot tub was lovely. We’ll be back!

We spent the holiday break here and experienced the winter storm that produced 30 foot waves. It was nice to sit in the hot tub while watching the weather and waves rush onto the beach from a safe distance. It was a relaxing and eventful stay.

We LOVED this house! It is actually next door to one we rented several years back. The location is amazing. You can walk right out to the beach for a walk during low tide. You can walk up into the neighborhood on the left and stroll all along Pleasure point on the path and watch the surfers. You can even walk to shopping and breakfast. The house is mostly updated and very lovely. Really enjoyed our time here and hope to come again!
