The space is spotless. Perfectly clean. Probably the cleanest place we have stayed in. Easy access to the beach as well. Very nice.

The property was in a quiet neighborhood, just a few short blocks from the beach. It was a nice two-night escape with perfect weather, walkability to a couple restaurants and a comfortable king bed.
10.0 / 10.0
The house is decorated so well for the beach. The streets are flat which is a plus for me since we live in the mountains. It’s only about 3 blocks from the beach and we walked there many times. We ate at the Pixie and The Venus which were dog friendly and delicious.
The only negative were the treacherous stairs. I’d love to live there.
8.0 / 10.0
The stay was great. It has everything you can think of when going to the beach or hanging out with the family.
The owner showed up to do maintenance and decor while I was there, Which was odd. Big van with big U-Haul. I unexpectedly had additional guests, and they overcharged me. They didn’t ask how many since they were present they took the initiative to count themselves. I reached out to customer service and they were helpful and kind. The host adjusted the pricing and they were very cold and straightforward. They never reached out personally. With as much contact as they want upon arrival, ironically they never reached out to me. Also they didn’t speak to me while there. It was all very awkward.
It was on me, I didn’t read all the house rules I browsed and I think they like lots of contact? Personally, that takes away from the vacation if I feel like I’m reporting in like a job.
But for the most part the house is cute, playful, and has all you need. If you don’t mind they show up with a van and U-Haul to check in; you’ll have a great time!

We loved visiting this home for the fourth of July weekend with our young children and dog. The location could not be beat and made for easy daily walks to the beach. We loved all the beach decor around the home, which made it truly feel like a beach getaway. The loft and kids toys were loved by our children, and the house was well outfitted with everything we need. Thank you to Teresa and Jules, for opening your home to us and making it available for such a lovely getaway!

Great clean and safe place to stay. Short walk to Rio Del Mar beach. I love the outdoor shower before going in so you can rinse off the sand. There are steep stairs to get in and to get to the loft so if you have mobility issues that is something to consider.
10.0 / 10.0
Such a cute place and conveniently a few blocks from the beach. Took a short trip and wished it were longer but we will definitely be back! Aptos has our hearts always! My daughter loved the loft as she could see the stars at night out of her window, my son loved his morning walks/run around the beach… and mom and dad loved just being away from work!

This was a quaint stay in a quiet beach town. We enjoyed walking the beach and neighborhood and had everything we needed to stay comfortably. No climate control aside from heaters which was a bit cumbersome but worked out fine for us. Overall great stay!

10.0 / 10.0
1. First things first, Teresa and Jule’s home was immaculate. Loved all of the art and the loft for the kids. Our daughter lived on the bean bag.
2. The home is so close to the beach you can hear and smell it. It’s amazing place to walk the dogs early in the morning. The kids loved it and we spent a lot of time just beachcombing and taking in the scenery.
3. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly. We met some truly wonderful people. Aptos is also set easy to navigate and you can get everything you need. Santa Cruz is just a short ride away!
4. Teresa and Jules are warm and welcoming. We had no issues getting in touch with them and they truly take pride in this home. The only thing to keep in mind is home entrance is on the second floor.
We loved staying here and will be back!! Thank you Teresa and Jules for a wonderful get away!

Once I found this place, I immediately booked it for me and my two granddaughters for their spring break. It was exactly what we were looking for and was so pleased it matched the description perfectly. Walking distance to the beach was close enough for the 4 year old. Two restaurants also within walking distance and a small market! The home was beautifully decorated, had enough games and toys to keep everyone busy. The loft area will win over kids of all ages. Would definitely book again!

I needed a larger space to celebrate Christmas with my adult daughters and their partners. The space worked out nicely. The kitchen had the necessary accouterments to pull it all together. Location was perfect for an afternoon walk to the beach. Both fireplaces kept us warm and added a special ambiance. I had one challenging moment getting the TV to function, I reached out to Jules and Teresa. The issue was resolved promptly via quick response. Thank you!
