About this property

Casita De Santa Cruz - Steps from Scenic West Cliff Drive

Casita de Santa Cruz is a delightful 2 bedroom, 2 bath home that comfortably sleeps up to four people. Artistically decorated, the 2 bedrooms each have a queen size bed. The large enclosed brick patio offers privacy for enjoying a soak in the hot tub, sunbathing or enjoying a barbecue while listening to the seals barking from their perches under the wharf.

Casita de Santa Cruz is a hidden gem, offering seclusion, but located in the heart of a westside Santa Cruz beach neighborhood. You can be in the "thick of it" within minutes, but also hide away from it all. The choice is yours! Live like a local during your vacation.

Enjoy a bike ride along West Cliff Drive, go wine tasting, take a drive up the coast to San Francisco or down the coast to Monterey, visit the University of California, Santa Cruz, play a round of golf, go sailing on the Chardonnay, try surfing!, or just relax at the beach.

Christmas at the Casita

We had a lovely stay over the holidays. The house was clean, kitchen was nicely stocked with everything needed, beds comfortable, everything we needed. Jill is a terrific host and answered all our questions promptly. It is in a great location near West Cliff. Highly recommend!

Long weekend

My wife and I and our adult daughter and her husband came to Santa Cruz to watch our son do a triathlon. We traveled from CT and arrived very late, but Jill had given us detailed directions and made it so easy for us. The little house is exactly as advertised - spotlessly clean with all conveniences, and in a great location. We highly recommend staying here!

Will be back next year

Our 5 week stay was wonderful. From check-in to check-out, Jill and her husband were very gracious hosts. Jill answered many questions I had before we even arrived, and if something came up while we were there, she responded immediately (even when she was out of town). The casita's kitchen is well equipped, with everything needed to cook. The hot tub, which is heated 24/7 was immaculate ( the service guy came every Monday while we were there). We had lovely meals out on the patio in the backyard, with very nice shade from the beautiful trees. The living area furniture is a bit dated, and a coffee table or ottoman would be nice, but otherwise fine.As far as the bedrooms, they were both very nice and the beds were comfy. Some extra pillows would be great. We have family in the area ( 1 block away) and we will be returning to SC next summer for another long stay. Because the casita is on an alleyway and not on a main street, it is super quiet (all you can really hear is the sea lions at the wharf!) Thank you Jill for being such a wonderful host. It is obvious that you care about your property and you care about your guests and their comfort. See you next year!
