I’ve stayed in many private rentals, and this is definitely top-notch. Great hosts, excellent beach amenities, fantastic proximity to a beautiful beach and the Santa Cruz boardwalk (both an easy walk). I’ll be back…

Beautiful home inside and out. Easy checkin and check out. Home had everything we could of needed for our week stay. 3 min walk to Sea right Beach. Really close by to restaurants and Boardwalk. Glenn was extremely helpful and quick to respond. Lots of space, stocked kitchen and bathrooms and lots of beach gear. I would highly recommend this home and would definitely stay here again when in California

It is a great beach house. They supplied everything you need for the beach and more. Wet suits, boogie boards, chairs, umbrellas, sand toys. Very nice kitchen and very well stocked! Bathrooms were nice.
The downstairs TV area is dark and the bedrooms are dark and small. But the beds we’re comfortable. There was laundry facilities.
The location couldn’t have been better!!!
I highly recommend it!

The communication with the home owner was fantastic! He got right back to us with the questions we had and was an overall really nice person.
The home is on a quite street, not many cars. Its an easy 3 minute walk to the beach and 10 minute walk to the Boardwalk. The house is very clean and comfortable. Kitchen has everything needed to cook dinners in and having a BBQ was a huge plus! Can't say enough about this place its simply a fantastic place to say and we look forward to going back!

Nice accommodations and excellent host. Glenn was always attentive to email inquiries and responded fast if we had any questions or concerns.
Home was only a block-ish from the beach. Half mile to Boardwalk. Really fun beach area (great for bonfires but get there early to reserve a pit). Glenn offered a lot of beach toys, wagon, beach chairs, and 4 bikes! Our kids loved this feature.
Nice back deck, cozy and private , complete with twinkle lights to illuminate the area at night.
Beautiful master area on the whole 2nd floor: deck with chairs, master bath is huge with jet tub and lots of natural light.
Fun private TV area in basement with a mini bar, just off the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms. Daughter had a blast in the bunk bed room. Son happy with the more grown up queen sized bed in other room.
Overall, we were very happy with the house and had a great time visiting the area.
5.0 / 10.0
The property is very nice, especially for being so close to beach (where places can be small). This is a 3 level residence; the lower level is a nicely re-modeled basement w/2 bedrooms and an area to watch TV, full bathroom and washer/dryer (purely functional area). The middle level is where we spent most of our time. The kitchen area as very good. The entry-room (from front door) served us well w/couches. The garage is a kind of entertainment area w/couches and TV - nothing fancy but it worked. The upstairs (master bedroom and bath) is very nice. The outdoor sitting area in the back is a bit small and taken up with outdoor furniture, but it serves it's purpose pretty well. I would rent this place again without hesitation.

Quiet Getaway.
This property is only 1 block down from Seabright Beach , very quiet neighborhood and less people at this beach. Walking distance to the Boardwalk and to a few restaurants. We had plenty of room for our 4 adult children and 2 grandchildren. Glenn had everything we needed for the house and for the beach . We really enjoyed our stay here. Thank you Glenn.

Property looked amazing
We were scheduled to come for my first visit back to Santa Cruz since college and for a wedding. All of our interactions with Glenn were lovely. He is very accommodating and prompt. Unfortunately the day of our travels I tested positive for COVID along with my children. We had to cancel and quarantine as recommended by CDC and never got to stay. While I was disappointed we couldn’t be refunded, I also completely understand. Thanks for trying to book the property for us though. I guess the moral of the story is to buy the insurance.

Great Location!!
This was our second time staying at this house, because we enjoyed our first stay so much! This house is great, it has everything you need for a fun vacation. It is also located in the best spot in Santa Cruz. There are restaurants within walking distance, beach, and even the Boardwalk is a walkable distance.

The house is as advertised, and Glen ha thought of everything down to a persons welcome note. The location is ideal…just over a block to the beach and within walking distance to great dining. The kitchen is well equipped, which is a huge bonus. We had a wonderful time!

This was the perfect stay!
The house, the location, the nearby attractions were all 100%. Glenn was so helpful in every way and had so many suggestions that we utilized. The beach was right down the street and each time we’d get home, the kids would already be down there before we could unload the car. The boardwalk is super close, the Sunday morning farmers market was just a few miles, and coffee is literally across the street :) my family all lives super close so it was perfectly located for our trip. Thank you for your amazing home! It fit all of our needs. Plus the garage has everything you could want and need for the perfect trip to the beach!

Great house in a perfect location
Took the family to Santa Cruz for a short winter vacation and had an amazing time. Glenn, the owner was super nice, and gave us excellent recommendations for food and activities in town.
The house was very clean, and organized. Master bedroom is on a separate floor, which gives privacy when needed.
Definitely will stay here again.
Location doesn’t get any better.
