Our family traveled to the Monterey Bay Area for a week and could not have been more thrilled with this property. Literally everything you could ever think you might need was there and available for use. We cooked in most mornings and three nights, the kitchen was extremely well appointed. The bedrooms were spacious, beds and linens extremely comfortable. The hosts were very responsive and accommodating.It is located on a golf course, about 3-4 blocks back from Beer Can Beach (which we loved!), so it made for beautiful walks. It was conveniently located off of the freeway, & the perfect distance between to explore between Big Sur & Mill Valley. I cannot recommend this property enough!!
Beautiful home to stay. Kitchen/livingroom is a great home base for family time. Bedrooms are good size & had an abundant amount of towels/sheets if needed. There is some old school charm. Be careful with babies/toddlers. Lots of trinkets around upon arrival that we kept safe in higher places during our stay. We would reccomend some baby proofing of cabinets if the lower cabinets have such breakable pieces. We were so excited to use the play structure during our stay but were disappointed that it was not in running order. Other areas of the house had some TLC that we brought to their attention. We reached out to the owners and they were great with accommodations and stated that they would fix all issues & update listing. Would like to stay again and get to use the full potential of the home. Thank you for sharing your home.
Family get together - bbq available with lots of dishes and pots and pans. Nice deck to relax and have conversations - Great location in Aptos near golf and beach. Very clean and relaxing! This is our third stay - will return again!
My extended family and I stayed in Aptos for a large family event in Santa Cruz. The Vrbo property was exactly as described and perfect for our group of 6. Excellent property
Beautiful spacious home - centrally located for the coast!
The house was everything we hoped it would be- the amenities exceeded expectations! The owners were very responsive. The house was very clean with unexpected high end appliances ; )
Our family stayed a week at this property while visiting the area. The home is very comfortable and in a convenient location. We would definitely visit again.
The house provided a great experience in Rio del Mar. It was perfect for families, especially with smaller kids with the playground in the backyard. The house was cozy and had everything you need for a good stay.
We had family visiting from out of town for the holidays and this house was the perfect spot for our family. The beds were comfortable and the walk to the beach was short for the 70-year-old grandparents.
Lots of indoor space and lovely outdoor deck to enjoy the nice weather. Location is perfect for any golf enthusiast. Checkin and check out was easy breezy. There is some opportunity for cleanliness but overall good place to stay and we would stay here again.
We loved the house, location, proximity to beach, shopping, restaurants, downtown SC, etc. The nearby stretch of beach is gorgeous, the golf course is next door, and the neighborhood is quiet and friendly. The owners were SUPER responsive and hospitable. Canât say enough good things.
We have enjoyed both of our stays at this property and plan to head back soon! My husband and I love to cook and BBQ (the house is stocked with everything you need for this) and our kiddos love the outdoor play area. It is an easy walk down to the ocean and a close drive to shops and restaurants. Wonderful home with anything and everything you might need.
The property is spacious with lots of storage space. It is in a quiet neighborhood. We found that 2 bathrooms was a bit inconvenient for 4 people but not a dealbreaker. It took a little while to figure out the light switches. I would recommend more hooks in the bathroom to hang towels and a mirror in the second bedroom so you can put on makeup when the bathroom is occupied. The kitchen is large, huge dining table, the patio is delightful and there is ample parking.
The microwave was not working but the owner sent over a replacement right away. We would stay here again.
Loved the area and house. Beautiful kitchen and family room and dining room. Master bed was very comfortable! Light switch broken in kitchen area for canned lights. The thermostat was hard to figure out and when we got there is was set at 55 degrees and freezing . The lock box was also open when we arrived. Two days the trunk of the car in the driveway was open so we closed it! The kids loved the playground and had a blast! Thank you for sharing your home!
We loved this property. The house was perfect. There were plenty of towels, linen and bedding for everyone's comfort. The kitchen was a chef's dream. The hosts were super accommodating from the start. Short drive to toddler friendly Rio Del Mar beach. The back deck and play structure were perfect for family dinner and undwinding from the day. We couldn't have asked for a better home away from home for the week. Thanks for the great stay!
This house is perfect for a larger family. It has three bedrooms and a huge couch that easy for someone to sleep on. It is the best stocked house that I have ever stayed in. Thr outside area, complete with a play structure for children is excellent. The kitchen is well stocked with everything that we needed for the stay. Video is excellent with large screen TVs and a variety of apps like Netflix.
The back deck is very big with a table that seats eight. Great for outside dining.
The house has plenty of games, including an old Pacman game that we had some fun with. While some of the bedroom furniture is dated, everything is functional and clean. We will stay there again when we go back to the area.
The place was fully equipped with what we needed to prepare for the holiday. The jungle gym in the backyard was the best feature that kept my niece and son busy all day and with some s'mores and star gazing at night. We couldn't be happier with the place. It was perfect for two families with 2 kids, and the beach is a 20-minute walk away. The kitchen was fully loaded for food preparation, and the owner was super prompt and helpful when the power went out in the backroom after we used the hairdryer with the heater on. Thank you so much.
The house was perfect for our 3 generation family.
Plenty of room indoors and out. The kitchen was very well stocked! The washer and dryer were very convenient in the garage. Plenty of off street parking. The mattresses and bedding were very comfortable. We enjoyed dinners outside in the sunshine around the huge table on the back deck. We walked to the beach from the house, sometimes we drove to the bottom of the hill if we were hauling a bunch of beach stuff...the hill was steep coming up.
We could tell we were living in a home that was loved by the owners. I would definitely stay here again.
The property was awesome. The kitchen especially was fully stocked with everything you would need. The beds were very comfortable. The outdoor decks were perfect for evening meals. Property is close to beaches which is what we were looking for. There are only 2 things we would add/change, a colander for the kitchen and the master bedroom shower head was way too low. Small issues but we would definitely rent again! You won't go wrong with this rental! Thanks Dianne!!!!
We are local professionals and have raised their family in Santa Cruz County. Our grandchildren love visiting our own home in Seascape (nearby) and heading to Camp Seascape each summer.
RARE, SINGLE LEVEL home. This special property exudes charm and elegance. Executive level appliances abound and you will be two doors from the 13th hole of the Seascape Golf Course and just a few minutes' walk to the ocean!
