Blessed Beach House 200 steps from the Ocean
Wir haben 8 Wochen in Beckys wunderbaren Strandhaus gelebt und uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Wir konnten vom Wohnzimmer aus auf den Pacific schauen und die Wale beobachten - großartig! Abends haben wir immer einen Spaziergang zum Strand gemacht; barfuss natürlich, da wir nur 3 Minuten bis zur wunderschönen Düne brauchten. Becky hat Ihr Haus sehr geschmackvoll im Stil eines wunderschönen Beachhouse eingerichtet und der einer Düne nachempfundene Garten mit super Sitzgelegenheiten war auch für unsere Kinder ein toller Spielplatz! Nicht zu vergessen; es gibt in Del Monte Beach eine tolle Nachbarschaft, in der wir jetzt immer noch wohnen!

Beach Front Dream House! Hottub/E-Bikes/Surfboards

Ocean View River to Sea Beach House
This was the perfect house for our family. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds comfy. The living room on the top floor had amazing views of the ocean. Would highly recommend for a family getaway.

Oceanfront Retreat with epic sunsets steps to sand
Very clean and fully functional house. On the beach. Peaceful surroundings.

Quiet Beach Cottage in the heart of Capitola
We had a great stay! The place was very clean, with a fully stocked kitchen that made it easy to cook meals. It’s quiet and private, with a nice layout—perfect if you’re traveling with kids who need their own space to sleep. We also loved the location, super convenient and peaceful. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend!

Adorable Sea House
We are frequent air bnb travelers. Dean’s place exceeded our expectations. The location was amazing, the house clean & well stocked. There were 4 of us and one child. The sleeping situation worked well. The view out the front window was incredible. We could have sat all day and watched the ocean, but we also walked to nearby restaurants, rented bikes, ran the Big Sur Race, and checked out the Tide Pools. Thank you for sharing this incredible home. We hope to return!!

Flat Stroll to the Beach / Private Patio
Liz's place was exactly as described and a lovely stay. We enjoyed walking to the beach. Appreciate all the shelving and storage space. Liz was extremely helpful and kind the airbnb was beautiful and definitely worth the money.

180°OceanView+HotTub+EBikes+Surfboards+SUPS+Kayak
Evan's place met our expectations. It has a great view of the many, many surfers at work right across the street as well as the steady stream of pedestrians. This is a very comfortable place. Very clean. Evan supplies a detailed list and review of coffee shops and Restaurants, and suggestions of many things to do. Evan was quick to respond to an issue with the hot tub and get it taken care of. Highly recommended.

House 33
We have been coming to Pajaro Dunes for 37 years. Our family loves it. This house needs some attending to. In one of the downstairs showers, the soap dish on the wall was broken. You need to be VERY VERY careful. My nephew cut his thumb and needed to get stitches. I was told I could check in before the rain started, but the office hadn't unlocked the house on their end. I had to drive back to the check in office and ended up getting wet while unpacking the car. Not the end of the world, but a little irritating. It took quite awhile to figure out the space heaters, some did not work. Kitchen pots and pans need updating - bring your own!! We had a great time and lots of great memories continue for our family.

Santa Cruz Beach House with Pool & Spa
The heated pool and hot tub were the focus of this very successful vacation. There were 8 of us: a family of 4 from Oakland, (Mama, Papa, girl 7, girl 3), from Chicago - a couple 37 & 40, and from Martha's Vineyard, us, 75 & 79. The 3 bathrooms were great, and the kitchen was well equipped. We ordered out mostly, from Hawaiian and Mexican restaurants. We spent a day on the boardwalk, and another on the trail at Wilder Ranch, where cliffs overlook ledges with MANY sunning sea lions, The house is easy walking distance from a couple of beaches. During our winter stay, there were high tides, wind and surf warnings. The views were spectacular. Also instructive. The father took his daughters an early morning walk; they saw a woman swept from the beach across the pavement. She had bloody knees, but was otherwise fine, but she and her two equally insane friends came off the beach. I hope the girls will remember this vivid lesson when they grow up to be invulnerable teenagers. Doubt it.

La Selva Seaside Sanctuary
Our family had a great time staying here! The condo was beautiful, clean, spacious and stocked with all the supplies we needed! The bedrooms were comfortable and clean with plenty of space, the kitchen was great and we appreciated the coffee bar and pans for cooking. The living room is a fun place to chill and the condo is super close to the pool and tennis courts and the beach! Vincent was friendly and easy to communicate with and check in and check out was very easy. Hoping to stay again in the future!

Panoramic Ocean Views - in Private Sanctuary
This is a great place with awesome views. The living area is perfect for reading a book or just sitting with friends and family while enjoying the beautiful 180-degree sea view. The only issue we faced was that the thermostat was already broken when we arrived. However, due to some misunderstanding, the host reached out and claimed that we had damaged it. This was the only negative experience, but I didn’t want to give a low rating because the place itself is truly beautiful.

Haute Enchilada Beachside Resort
Clean and spacious place. Quirky but perfect for us. But if a drive to anyplace except the slough and beach.

Isolation Retreat - ocean view & hot tub
Wonderful stay! The place was clean and comfortable, the host was friendly and helpful, and the location was absolutely beautiful. Would definitely stay again!

Classic Beach House - Walk to Seacliff Beach
Amazing location near the beach and beautiful home. We especially loved the backyard and patio. The hammock was so comfortable and the boche ball court with sand toys were a hit with our family. Would recommend to anyone staying in the area!

Updated Westside home. 4 blocks from the beach!
We had a great stay. Ian’s place is cute, comfortable, and close to everything but still nice and quiet. Beds were super comfortable, and the kitchen was spacious and well-stocked. My dogs had a great time walking through the neighborhood to the beach and hanging out in the fenced in backyard! The hot tub was a highlight, and Ryan (Ian’s brother) was awesome—he spent nearly a whole day cleaning it after the previous guests to make sure it was perfect for us. Communication with him was excellent. Would definitely stay here again!

Serene luxury beach bungalow in Pleasure Point
Loved this place! The location was perfect—just a short walk to the beach. The bungalow was beautifully designed inside and out, with thoughtful decor and a peaceful, uncluttered vibe. Everything felt high quality and well-organized, making it one of the easiest and most relaxing Airbnbs I’ve ever stayed in. My daughter especially loved the outdoor shower! Communication with the host was excellent.

Pebble Beach Home for Ocean & Golf off 17 Miles
The backyard was my favorite! Beautiful gardens and so peaceful perfect location. Plenty of clean, comfortable beds for my family. Jackie was very responsive and gave some good dinner recommendations.

Beach Hill Hideaway - Beach Boardwalk, steps away
Our new Santa Cruz favorite airbnb! Comfortable, great location near the boardwalk, but not too close....just perfect, quiet, tons of space, so much thought put into the furnishings, well stocked kitchen - had everything we needed. An added plus, is the accommodation for little young ones- our daughter and her grandchild came over for dinner and the highchair was perfect. The only criticism I can think of, is it would be nice to have operable windows in the living room to have some fresh air- but that's it. All in all, this is a wonderful home away from home.
