We visited here for a family vacation to the Santa Cruz area for five days.
The location of this property is ideal. You are literally across the street from a relatively unpopulated section of beach and able to hear ocean sounds day and night. The floor to ceiling windows (with window coverings) make for a wonderful ambiance for a beach visit.
With that said, the location is what you are paying for as there were a number of maintenance items which need attention and amenities that were in the listing which were not provided.
Amenities - There is no washer and dryer. No hair dryer was provided. The BBQ is a Traeger; no pellets were provided.
Maintenance -
Ants - There were ants all over the kitchen and throughout the rest of the house. After day 1 we had to move all food off the counters to the refrigerator and kitchen table to keep the ants at bay. I also found them in weird places (like a dresser). Needless to say the pests were annoying.
Plumbing - One of the master bath faucets was not working properly and would only spray a tiny stream of water. To their credit, the property manager had a plumber come out and fix it, but they weren't able to come until Thursday. We left Friday.
We also discovered the master bath shower had no water pressure and was unusable. So, we all showered in the downstairs bathroom.
Overall, our visit was ok. We enjoyed the location, but felt the home should be in better condition given the price we paid.
