About this house rental
This California Craftsman Bungalow on the Santa Cruz Historical Register is beautiful, spotlessly clean, fully furnished and is one house off East Cliff Drive overlooking Seabright Beach.
The location is ideal as it is walking distance to the beach and to numerous Santa Cruz attractions including the Santa Cruz Yacht Harbor, Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Municipal Wharf, Lighthouse Point and Steamer Lane, and Natural History Museum. Everything you'll need is close by- Verve Coffee Roasters as well as dozens of restaurants including fan-favorites Seabright Brewery, Crow's Nest, and more.
After a fun day out at the beach (umbrella, towels, and chairs provided), rinse off in the private outdoor shower before coming inside to relax by the gas fireplace and watch a movie (Television/ cable included). Make yourself at home in the fully-equipped kitchen as we have provided the basic necessities to make a wonderful homemade meal- Small appliances include coffee maker, blender, & toaster. Fully equipped with dishes, glassware/barware, cooking utensils, and basic spices.
Upstairs, the large Master Bedroom contains a Queen bed, and the other bedroom has 2 twins (both bedrooms have dressers and closets for unpacking!). A 1/2 bath upstairs makes things even more convenient.
There is an impeccably manicured English garden with grass front yard and sideyard concrete patio (including table and chairs for outside dining, if preferred) and Weber barbecue.
This fantastic cottage is loved by all.

Lovely home away …boardwalks, beautiful gardens and sea lions singing in the harbor . Vintage beauty with everything you need. My cold pal loved the fireplace and I loved the ocean.

Excellent house for my husband and me and our two grandchildren (7 and 9). Easy walk to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. Well stocked kitchen and comfortable living room. Friendly neighbors—everyone said hi as we strolled up and down the block!

This is our second time here and look forward to staying again!

The home was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was communicative and welcoming. We happened to be headed out when the gentleman arrived to do landscaping and he was kind to us and very sweet to our young child. It was an easy 10 minute walk to the Boardwalk (even with a four year old!) and a quick few minutes to the beach. We appreciated the generous size of the living space and simple decor. It was the perfect size and location for our family and we can’t wait to stay here again!

All positive! Great location, very cute inside and out. Hosts were wonderful.

This bungalow is literally across the street from the beach. It was clean and cozy. The neighborhood was calm and peaceful even though it’s within very short walking distance to the boardwalk. We were thrilled with the entire experience and staying here again in the future would be a no brainer. 10/10
Just book it. You won’t regret it.

We loved our stay in Santa Cruz. This cozy dwelling was the perfect place for our family to celebrate our nephew's graduation festivities. The kids loved the room they stayed in and we enjoyed the proximity to the Beach and Downtown. Thank you!

Location to beach, and activities was fantastic!

This adorable home is steps from the beach. Even though there was lots of rain during our visit it was lovely to cozy up by the fire. Full kitchen allowed us to cook meals at “home”, but there are several great cafe’s restaurants within 0.5 miles.
The bed fit my 6’4” spouse comfortably.

Our stay at Laurie's darling cottage was wonderful! Beautiful landscaping and the striking double red front doors greet you. When you enter the home the charm continues with the decor and cozy cottage feel. We found the kitchen had everything we needed; even very nice plates and glass wear, which we appreciated.
It was great being so close to Seabright Beach and Santa Cruz Museum of Natural History. At night it was a little noisy at times with people going down to the beach, but it was not too bad.
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to another visit to this charming cottage! Thank you Laurie!

Beautiful cozy home! Laurie was very helpful and was so kind to get us charcoal and lighter fluid for our dinner. Location was super convenient, within walking distance to amusement park and pier. We enjoyed falling asleep listening to the surf and sea lions. Outdoor spaces was as beautiful as the interior.

We loved the house, it was convenient, very cute and well kept. We were comfortable. The fireplace remote was a little tricky but the fireplace did offer the warmth we needed in the morning. The owner was super nice, we had a great time.

Nice little cottage, 1 house away from Seabright Beach. Could hear the ocean every night. A bit noisy at night from people partying on the beach, but to be expected I think being so close to beach. 5 minute walk to Boardwalk. Cool neighborhood and walking distance to breakfast spots and taproom. Description didn't list washer/dryer(that I saw), but it does have them.

Once again, we had a fantastic stay at this property, on Alhambra Avenue, in Santa Cruz. This "cottage" is immaculately maintained, with vintage furnishings & fixtures, a beautiful garden, and plenty of room. It is a short walk to the beach or boardwalk. The owners can easily be contacted, if necessary, and are very responsive to any requests or needs. Just a perfect "beach getaway!"

Cosy little wooden house just around the corner of the beach, 100y old with original interior but very well maintained, quiet surrounding but shops and restaurants nearby, very nice hosts living just next door, strongly recommended for all who are looking for a relaxed holiday home to get a real impression of Santa Cruz.

Stay was good. The house works well for family with kids who love beach and boardwalk. Communication was clear and timely.

This little cottage is located incredibly close to one of the best, quiet beaches in Santa Cruz, just a short walk to the boardwalk and wharf. On the small side but perfect for a family with young kids. The host was responsive and resolved questions right away. The property was very, very clean, which we appreciated a lot. Overall we were thrilled and will definitely be back.

We stayed here for a few days to relax at the tail end of our Bay Area/Yosemite roadtrip. This is one of our favorite, if not the favorite, rental homes we've stayed in. It was just what we needed. The house was spotless and had everything we could think of. We flew to the area, so being able to use beach towels and beach chairs was a huge bonus for us. The location was perfect for us to walk so many place, especially the beach. I loved being able to hear the waves and the sea lions at night from the bedroom. The homeowner lives next door so would be able to assist if we needed her. Highly recommend this home! We would definitely stay here again if we were in the area.

Sea Bright Bungalow has a great location, it has a lot of charmes and it was very clean. We were very happy to have found this place for my son's graduation weekend. The host is professional and very reachable. We would definitely recommend it.

The perfect Seabright bungalow for showing my family the magic of Santa Cruz. Walking to play at Seabright beach, walking to the Boardwalk, and coming home to a clean, silent, cozy cottage is the making of a perfect day. The house had everything we needed and was beautiful inside and out. Thanks for the wonderful memories!

My family found this historic cottage to be charming, nicely
decorated and it has a lovely small yard with stunning rose gardens and grass. Our first two days the weather was cool and rainy and the cottage was difficult to warm adequately using the natural gas fireplace. As the weather warmed more during the week we were staying, we were quite comfortable with the fireplace for heating. The cottage is a short walk to Seabright Beach Park and also a short walk to several casual restaurants that we tried. We enjoyed our stay at this lovely cottage in Seabright very much.
