Pleasure Point getaway

Really nice house. Plenty of room for family to have separate rooms and bathrooms. Great setup for multiple families. Beautiful decks and sunroom. Very beautiful and well equipped kitchen. Beach down the street is not really a family beach. There is a stairway but it ends short of beach leaving a climb down the cliffs to a very small beach, especially during high tide which was the entire time we were there. Beaches a few miles away are beautiful. Capitola beach is nearby and is a wonderful little town with great shops and restaurants. Pleasure point is walking distance and also has great shops and restaurants. We especially enjoyed East Side Eatery Pleasure PointPizza. Great pizza and clam chowder.

Beautiful Property in Awesome Location

This house was great and had everything we were looking for, including everything we needed to cook, a wonderful location to dine in Pleasure Point or Capitola, and easy access to the beach. The house is also beautiful, very well-maintained, and has a very green and relaxing backyard. I will definitely consider staying here again.

Santa Cruz getaway

We had a wonderful time! Joyce was a fantastic host, great communication. The house has so much character, we loved it. Our family fit perfectly. All of the bikes and water toys were so convenient for a beach vacation. The hot tub was so nice at the end of the day. Super walkable location. We walk to Capitola for dinner on the beach and we walked all the way to 26th Ave. the other direction. Can’t wait to go back!

Charming

This house has it all. The owner has created an atmosphere of comfort. The house is very cute and has a full bathroom with every bedroom. Having a deck on the front and back was really nice. Make sure to use the hot tub at night with all the lights around the back was wonderful!
