Du kommer "Shore" älskar våra hus barnvänlig strand!

Vår 2100 kvadratfot hem är särskilt lämpad för familjer. Vi har allt du behöver för en baby (inklusive Pack N Play, barnstol och mycket mer) eller en dag på Natural Bridges Beach med din familj (inklusive sandleksaker, paraplyer, kylare, solstolar, strandvagn för alla dina saker och mer), som bara är ett och ett halvt bort och har säsongsbetonade livräddare.

Ännu viktigare, med fyra sovrum och tre badrum, vi har den perfekta uppsättningen upp för en stor familj som reser med sin barnskötare eller annan vaktmästare. På första våningen hittar du de viktigaste vardagsrum, inklusive ett sovrum med en dubbelsäng och badrum med dusch. Den nedre våningen har också en rymlig matsal, som har plats för upp till åtta personer. Ett rymligt vardagsrum ligger i anslutning till matsalen med en bekväm familjerum bort av köket.

En trappa upp, de två barnens rum är på framsidan av huset och delar ett badrum. En av barnens sovrum har en enda enkelsäng med en rulla enkelsäng. Den andra har en dubbelsäng. Sovrummet ligger på baksidan av huset, och det har en king size-säng, en litet barnsäng, DVD-spelare, flatscreen-tv, stort badkar och gott om förvaring.

Bakgården är en annan höjdpunkt i hemmet. Den har en fullständig utomhus vardagsrum med lusthus, utemöbler (för både vuxna och barn) och dusch med varmt vatten som du kan använda för att skölja bort efter en dag på stranden. Utomhus vardagsrummet blir en perfekt blandning av sol och skugga, och det är ett bra ställe att luta sig tillbaka på helgerna eller i slutet av en lång dag. Barnen kan också spela på bakgården medan du tittar från vardagsrummet, matsal, eller kök. Fastigheten är belägen på en säker och lugn cul-de-sac.

Som nämnts, är vår strand hus bara en och en halv från Natural Bridges State Beach, som ligger nära natursköna West Cliff Drive blocket och (bra för långa promenader vid havet!) och UCSC Seymour Long Marine Lab. Du kan enkelt gå till Swift Street, där du hittar vingård rum provsmakning, yoga studios, New Leaf Market (en mini-Whole Foods) och massor av restauranger. Om du vill satsa längre, är Santa Cruz Boardwalk och brygga cirka två miles bort.

Perfect Place

Family fit nice in this large home. Landlord and host great at communicating via text. Wonderful to be able to walk to Natural Bridge Beach. Sand toys, chairs and wagon made getting to beach easy and enjoyable. Grandkids liked running around back yard and adults liked relaxing on patio chairs as we enjoyed their giggles. Sleeping accommodations fit our needs perfect with the 4 bedrooms. Travel a lot all over and stay in VBRO’s and this home was well stocked with all needed items and extras which we appreciated. Overall, a great place to stay in Santa Cruz!

Best SC house so far

This was our fifth summer renting a home in Santa Cruz, and this house was our best experience so far. The owners are incredibly helpful and friendly. They checked in with us on our day of arrival to make sure we were able to access the home and to see if we needed anything or had any questions. They had a welcome basket waiting for us with all kinds of wonderful goodies for adults and kids. Wine, beach bag, beach ball, bubbles, etc. This is a thoughtfully stocked home. There is soap, plastic bags, foil, paper towels, spices, a Keurig coffee machine and coffee - plus many other kitchen necessities. The laundry and bathrooms have necessary items as well. This is such a refreshing change form the houses that only provide salt and pepper, and the bare minimum. In the garage the owners have thoughtfully provided beach chairs, umbrellas, sand toys, a wagon and much more. The outside shower is wonderful, and there are many nice places to sit and relax, both in the front and backyard. The house is large and roomy with 2 separate living room areas, great for a mixture of kids and adults. 4 bedrooms and 3 baths accommodate larger groups nicely. The master bedroom is huge. Natural Bridges beach is less than a 5 minute walk. Parking is easy. Definitely a terrific experience!

Fantastic Family Beach House - Highly Recommend!

This beach house truly is a home-away-from-home. I booked it for three generations of my family (elderly mother, siblings + kids). It was perfect for us. The house is equipped with everything we needed, including linens, beach equipment and lots of beach toys. It was also spotlessly clean. The kitchen was nicely stocked with cooking utensils and service items. The property is well laid out – it was great having a bedroom downstairs for my mother who has difficulty climbing stairs, as well as being able to plop the kids in the TV/games area while us adults could spend some time in the living room. The layout is ‘separated’ but open. The back garden space was terrific with the table/eating area plus additional sitting and lounge chair areas. LOVE the outdoor shower!! The location was perfect – we loved being within walking distance to Natural Bridges Beach, West Cliff (with walking/cycling path along the beautiful coastline), grocery stores, shops and restaurants without being in the heart of downtown. Susan is a marvellous host – very communicative and responsive to all of my silly questions. Her binder with local restaurants, tips, things to do, general info etc is the best I have ever come across. I am planning to book again this upcoming summer. (Susan, please forgive my tardiness in posting this review!) - Annette S. (a native Californian living in Edinburgh, Scotland).

Everything was perfect

Our family thoroughly enjoyed the stay. Great location, and a clean, comfortable home. Our three young children had a great time; and were safe in the enclosed backyard. Having use of the bikes, beach chairs and umbrellas was a big plus. Altogether highly recommended.

Perfect house for a family vacation

We spent 5 days and 4 nights in Santa Cruz as a family of two parents, two grandparents, and three young kids. We LOVED this house. It is walking distance to the beach, where we took the kids every afternoon to play in the sand and the water (which is cold, but they didn't care). The house is on a quiet streeet with a fully stocked kitchen and a great backyard for playing and bbqing. The hot water outside shower was a huge plus after getting home from the beach covered in sand. The layout worked well because the kids and parents were upstairs and the grandparents were downstairs and got some peace. The owners were easy and responsive - when we couldn't get a light to work they helped us figure it out immediately. We would highly recommend this house to families headed to Santa Cruz!

Clean, comfortable, location, location!

This home was perfect for our family trip to California. My husband and I traveled with our three children, son in law and two grandchildren. The house was perfect, everyone had their own space, the large dining room and living room allowed for wonderful family time! The house is well cared for and meticulously clean. My grandchildren so enjoyed the toys (both inside and outside) that came with the house, even books for bedtime stories! All the comforts of home! The Natural Bridges State Park, the beach and boardwalk are all very close! The owner is very responsive, most times an immediate response when I called with questions! Pride of ownership is evident and I highly recommend this home for a vacation getaway. We will definitely be returning!

Bright clean beach house - great location

Right off of West Cliff Drive and just a short walk into Natural Bridges state beach, this house was a fantastic pick. The king bedroom is super spacious, there was a perfect "kids room" and there are two other great adult bedrooms. Sue was incredibly responsive and everything was super clean. There was even wifi and art supplies and scooters and such. A great place for a family stay!

Exactly what we needed!

We enjoyed our stay in this wonderfully appointed house. This is the first time in 4 years we've had all of our grown children in the country for a vacation. This lovely home had all the amenities we needed. Our 2 young grandchildren loved the kid sized furniture, toys, books and games. I appreciated how organized everything was and that we wanted for nothing in the kitchen when we opted for cooking instead of dining out. The beach wagon was a big help hauling stuff and kids down to the beach. Susan was easy to work with and surprised us with a gift basket upon arrival. We would definitely stay here again!

Truly Wonderful Place To Stay In Santa Cruz!

We rented this house when we went up to attend our daughter’s graduation from UCSC. There were eight of us, ranging in age from 19 to 89, and our stay at this lovely and excellently located house was everything we hoped for and much more! The house itself is quite spacious and has any “airy” feel with a lot of natural light and an open floor plan on the first floor, which includes a bedroom that was perfect for our elderly mom who uses a walker. The entire house is very well furnished, and lacked nothing that we needed in terms of furniture, furnishings, utensils, appliances, crockery, etc. There were even bicycles and scooters in the garage, and a lot of kid-related stuff -- although we didn’t get a chance to use them. Everything is well organized, labeled and explained, and so it was very easy to move in and get comfortable. The back yard is designed for entertaining, with a gazebo, a propane BBQ and ample patio furniture – that we put to good use during our stay! In short, the house is exactly as described, but much nicer and more spacious than the photos suggest. Above all, Susan and John are excellent hosts, who responded promptly to our requests. E.g., late one evening we texted: “Is there a blender in the house?” and the answer came back within minutes: “There is a blender and Magic Bullet in the dining room nook.” We were also very pleasantly surprised to find a beach bucket full of Graduation-related Welcome gifts waiting for us in the living room when we arrived, including a bottle of champagne, a balloon, decorations, party plates, etc! The house is a short walk to the Natural Bridges Park and the West Cliff Drive, which is very scenic and has a wonderful walking/jogging/biking trail along the cliff edge which we used regularly during our stay. Another very nice feature was the thick 3-ring binder provided by the owners, that was chock full of information about Santa Cruz and the surrounding area, including recommendations for where to dine, shopping options, list of attractions in the area, etc. We would definitely stay here again!

High Praise for this Santa Cruz House

Our stay at this lovely Santa Cruz house was everything we hoped for and then some. It is a short walk to Natural Bridges beach, West Cliff Drive and the Walker Ranch State Park. The house is inviting and extremely family friendly-- it even comes with bikes that were perfect for exploring the scenic walkways and bike trails. One of the features we really made great use of during our stay was the book full of information provided by the owners that gave recommendations of where to eat, best parking spots, shopping areas and a list of attractions in the area. We would definitely stay here again!!

Wonderful house!

My children and their partners as well as my grandchildren loved this house! I can't say enough good things about the it. It was large, airy, comfortable and perfect for us. Everything you could possibly need as far as utensils etc. was provided. We made good use of the girl and the out door seating areas. I can't say enough good things about it and I would definitely stay there again!

Happy Family

Although our experience in Santa Cruz and this Natural Bridges home was a few months ago, thoughts of that wonderful trip with our children and grandchildren still linger during quiet moments. The home was so comfortable and inviting, each one of us felt like we belonged there. It is easy to walk to the beach at one of the most interesting locations along the coast, downtown, the Boardwalk and convenient shopping is just a few minutes away. We are all looking forward to a time soon when we can do it again!

Excellent house in Santa Cruz

This is a wonderful house in an excellent location in Santa Cruz, in easy walking distance to Natural Bridges State Beach (my favorite beach on the entire coastline from Monterrey to San Francisco) and to West Cliff Drive, which is the most scenic stretch in Santa Cruz and has a wonderful walking/running/biking trail along the cliff edge. The house is exactly as described, but nicer, more comfortable and more spacious than the photos suggest. Unlike other vacation homes that I have rented, there were no unexpected negatives. The kitchen is well stocked with appliances and utensils. There are bikes, beach chairs, an umbrella, sand toys, etc available to use. Everything is well labeled and explained, and there is no clutter at all, so it is very easy to move in and relax. The owner is meticulous about all the details and responds immediately to any questions. This is a great house of kids. The backyard is enclosed. The house is on a quiet and safe cul-de-sac, and there is little inside that kids would be likely to break. We had a wonderful time staying here. The next time we plan to rent a house in Santa Cruz, I will definitely check availability here first.

Fantastic Family Time

Location, Location, Location. A short few minutes walk to Natural Bridges State Beach, with in walking distance to Kellys French Bakery and a great food market called New Leaf Market. A short drive to a world class golf course (Pasatiempo Golf Club) as well the University of Santa Cruz and the famous Santa Cruz Boardwalk. As I write this I wish I was still there. We had great family time at 1 dollar Tuesday at the Boardwalk and many lazy mornings relaxing in a nice, cozy home, as well evenings chilling, sipping on local wines. Susan (the owner was extremely helpful in providing tips and ideas for us as well 2 passes for the Monterey Aquarium.) A great place for families to stay even with small kids, the beach was a blast and really close and they had lots of toys and bikes. Can't wait to go back again.

"Shore" had a great time

After experiencing days of triple digit heat in LA, we were thrilled to escape to Santa Cruz. A beach pail with treats for all awaited us on the dining room table. Our six day stay was perfect. The house is lovely and soo clean. It's conveniently located to the beach and within walking distance to a skateboard park and playground. The kids loved playing in the wide cul de sac and the adults relaxed in between hiking, biking and shopping. Yes bikes and scooters are provided along with toys, books and videos. The first floor has a circular traffic pattern which works well for everyone to get around and enjoy the enormous living room, family and dining room. The downstairs bedroom is perfect for disabled or elderly guests and the upstairs has 3 good size bedrooms with 2 baths. Six of our party ran in the Fireworks Run on the Fourth of July and a fireworks display near the lighhouse climaxed a perfect day. We plan to make it an annual experience. Thanks for sharing your beach house with us-- it felt like our temporary home.

Post Wedding/Pre Honeymoon Trip

My husband and I stayed here with 7 of our friends for 4 glorious days just after our wedding. Our friends had flown over from Scotland and had stayed in various places in N. California already, so we thought we vaguely knew what to expect based on the other rentals they'd stayed in. But, we were absolutely shocked when we arrived to find the most beautiful home - a super short walk from the beach - and with such thoughtful touches. In fact, there was a basket of cookies, cheese, crackers, champagne, suggestions of things to do, and a note congratulating us on our wedding and welcoming us to their beach home. Also, my husband is a wheelchair user and this was a phenomenal find in that sense too. Although this is a 2 story house, there is a bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor. There is only one small step (only a couple of inches high) to get through the front door and he was able to handle it without help. The rest of the ground floor is step free and very spacious. Is was extremely clean and comfortable, the owner has covered all the bases and went above and beyond to help us before, during, and after our stay. They have an extensive guide to the area, all the facilities you could hope for including a BBQ and a great outdoor setup for using it. We found a bunch of great bars and restaurants nearby and never had any problems getting taxis on nights when we wanted to go out in downtown Santa Cruz without the car (only about 5 minutes drive). This rental is VERY well priced. I would recommend it to anyone - large groups, families, couples, younger people, older people - this place has it all! We will definitely be back. Hopefully SOON!

Westside Surf Rental

This was the perfect house for our 3 generations family vacation. The cul de sac and enclosed back yard allowed the kids to play while the adults dozed under the pergola. Bikes, trikes, boogie boards, and other kid (and grown-up) toys made it an easy turn-key vacation. Owner put together an amazing book that included local concerts, day trips, recommended restaurants etc... Everything is well organized and labelled. Not only is the house more warm and inviting than the photos suggest, but the location is great. It's walking distance to beach, "pick your own" strawberry farm, Kelly's French Bakery, hiking paths, and other activities. It's an easy bike ride to downtown. We got lucky with the Fourth-of-July week where we able to see fireworks from West Cliff Drive. The advantage of the westside is that traffic is better and you aren't living on top of each other. Grandma, middle-aged parents, teens and toddlers all had a great time.

Great House for Families

We had a great time in this beautiful house in the best part of Santa Cruz! The house is very comfortable and spacious. We stayed in the house with our 1 year old, a 3 1/2 year old and our au pair. It's was a wonderful house and fully stocked for kids. The location is perfect. It's just a few blocks from the amazing Natural Bridges Beach. The owners were very helpful and left us great tips about Santa Cruz and plenty of great suggestions of local things to do. The yard is very cozy (and gated off which was great with a toddler) and has a nice outdoor shower for when you get back from the beach. This house is really wonderful for families! We hope to come back next time!

July 2011 visit

What a wonderful home in such a beautiful area. The owners were so helpful and offered all the information we needed. Our whole family, grandparents, parents, adults and kids including an infant, enjoyed our week stay. We were within walking distance of the beach with sand, waves and tide pools. A short walk could take us to a park or a paved walkway along the coast. The house was spotless and we loved the welcome sand bucket with maps, wine and treats. The arrangement of bedrooms, bathrooms and living/dining rooms allowed adults and children, of various ages, to be together with room to spare. However, the arrangement also allowed children with varying bed times to get to sleep easily. The backyard was perfect for active play, outside dining and basking in the afternoon sun, if we weren't at a beach. I use a manual wheelchair and, my husband and I, could easily use the downstairs bedroom and bathroom. We had members of our family with allergies, so finding a vacation home with no smoking/no pets was a requirement, and your home was perfect. I recommend a visit to the house before finalizing plans, as the pictures don't really give a sense of how large it is. The quiet neighborhood, the cul de sac and the fun of visiting Santa Cruz made this a memorable vacation. I recommend this home without reservations. Sincerely, Meg
