Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Seabright, Santa Cruz

I stayed here with my wife and son and it was the perfect place. Had a nice little backyard and enough space for the kiddo to roam around. Super comfortable and felt like home away from home. Love how close it is to the Henry Cowell redwoods state park. Kathleen was an excellent host. Would definitely stay here again. 😊

Place was great--fit our needs perfectly. Recommend opening windows at night to bring in that beautiful fresh air. Our 4.5 yo was absolutely over the moon by all the activities outside in the yard-- very well equipped area for adults and kids alike! The sand toys were also a hit--we loved walking to the beach and appreciated how well written the instructions were. Just took a photo of them and went on our way. Only bummer is the lack of sidewalks in Aptos, but most cars do seem to watch for walkers. Marianne's ice cream is great, and tamales across the street also fantastic. Weather cooperated and the easy access to Santa Cruz and Monterey made this location ideal. Colm was a great host--responded immediately to any questions I had. Very thankful for this spring break trip--we truly feel rejuvenated!

Our family had a very peaceful and relaxing stay at Sean and Wendy's home. The home and exterior space are immaculate with lots of incredible details and features. Our kids had fun running around and exploring the gardens. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a place to get away and make some memories. Thank you Sean and Wendy!

This house fit our needs perfectly. We were able to easily walk to our seminar and cook our own meals in the kitchen. We really enjoyed our stay!

First off the photos don’t do this house justice. The spaces, including that wonderful balcony, are bigger than you think. We had 7 adults, a toddler & an infant and we didn’t feel cramped at all. The beds, linens and pillows were so comfy, the multitude of windows to let the ocean air breeze come through, along with fans in the bedrooms, were perfect. The kitchen was the most well equipped I’ve used in an Airbnb before. The wagon, chairs and beach towels were also so nice to have for the short one block walk to Black Beach (one of my favorites in Santa Cruz). Oh and do not let the 1 full bathroom for everyone scare you off. Having the 2 half baths made it all work and we never had an issue. My family LOVED this place and wants to come back so very much. We have spent 26 years coming to Santa Cruz almost annually and this was our best residential experience yet. Thank you to Kim and her Rental Mgr, Nancy, for taking care of us and communicating so well. This family highly recommends!

Great place to stay, will come back again.

Lori's place was perfect for a large group of people to both enjoy each other's company in the large living/dining/deck areas, while having privacy for sleeping. It's two stories with lots of space inside and outside with a third story outside crow's nest deck as well. The hot tub was a bonus! The beach access was incredible and the best thing about the location. It's just a 2 min. walk away! The neighborhood is tranquil. Lori was easy and great to work with as well! What a special time!

Great location! Nice private backyard. Beach is a quick walk, or a 1 minute drive if you want to take a car. Beautiful beach! Great neighborhood to walk around. Kitchen is small but well stocked. Great house!

This is a clean and beautiful place to stay! Very baby friendly! We didn’t realize that there is another unit above the Airbnb - you can hear footsteps occasionally.

Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay. Well equipped kitchen and it was fun to spend some time enjoying the view.

Maria Elena's studio apartment is perfect for two people. It is roomy and completely updated. The king size bed is comfortable and the mini-split heat/air conditioner is perfect for the changes in weather in San Jose. The neighborhood is peaceful, safe and walkable to a local grocery, coffee and restaurants. I recommend Maria Elena's apartment and will stay there again on my next trip to San Jose.

QUIET! I am fairly good with maps and finding locations... and love to find well-located homes in a quiet area. The house is on a corner of 2 smaller streets and there really is not any traffic - one of the streets is really 1 lane and very quaint! It is very comfortable and cozy. There were friendly walkers - it is a obviously a great neighborhood. Ben is a great host. The house guide binder was very well put together and helpful....I wish I would have read it as soon as I got in. There is a very interesting walk of about 1 mile to downtown that is all on quiet streets and finally across a bridge into town - take it! Without a doubt, I would stay here again next time I am in Santa Cruz!

The condo was very clean and comfortable. Lawrence was quick to respond when we had a question. There are restaurants within walking distance and grocery stores and good coffee within a mile. We enjoyed our stay and would be happy to stay here again.

very good host & house

We had a great stay here! The place is cozy, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked, which made meals easy during our visit. It’s also conveniently located near kid-friendly attractions like Happy Hollow Park & Zoo, The Tech Interactive, and the Children’s Discovery Museum—great for our family trip.

everything was super nice, only thing was the charger didnt work which was very bummed out, but overall house is super spacious and nice, plenty of room for family and friends! mason was helpful & communicative!

Excellent stay , beautiful and very clean home . Lijun is super fast in responding to queries.

A minor issue with our original reservation was quickly resolved by the PowerWest Team. They responded immediately and went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of and had a perfect trip. The unit is a beautiful, well equipped condo with spectacular ocean front views. We will definitely visit again and stay with PowerWest.

I rented this house to celebrate my birthday with friends and it was such a beautiful, well sized space. The views were gorgeous and the accommodations were unique and perfect for what we needed. Overall such an amazing stay and would definitely consider coming back again.

This was a convenient location and Grace made the stay easy to book & check-in. Value priced and comfortable.

This place is a real gem: located in the heart of San Jose, very spacious, and has everything for a comfortable stay. We were three families staying together, a total of 6 adults, a toddler and a baby, and every one of us enjoyed very much staying at Marine’s place. The place itself is a house with an additional suite on the back with a separate entrance. Several cars can be easily parked on premises, for sure 3, and perhaps even 4. The area is beautiful and very quiet, and everything is within a few-minute drive. The host is great: responsive, polite, and kind; he allowed us a late checkout because of the baby. Overall: a very well deserved five stars!

My two adult daughters and myself had a quick overnight stay in San Jose and this place was perfect! Clean! Comfy beds! Plenty of room! We stayed in the third floor suite which had a kitchen and a sweet little reading nook. We will definitely book again when heading through San Jose!

This Hacienda was located on top of the Santa Cruz Mountains and was so majestic, peaceful and breathtaking. The house is welcoming and beautifully decorated. The view was incredible, watching the clouds and marine layer blanket over the trees. Each bedroom had comfy beds. Kitchen stock well with everything you need. Bathrooms clean. Heated floors were a nice touch. Sitting outside on various patio levels was magical. Felt like I was at retreat. Lisa was quick to respond. Our family loved staying here and getting away from city noise and hustle bustle. Thank you Lisa and Chris for sharing your home. This place is a real gem.
