Plenty of sun, sand and surf. Santa Cruz is the quintessential coastal California town.
It is actually the place where surfing was first introduced to the mainland back in 1880, which explains why Santa Cruz exudes such a laid-back charm. While surfers flock here to ride the city's famous waves every year, Santa Cruz is far more than just a destination for those seeking the perfect wave.

Whether you're looking to enjoy a family holiday at the beach, go on a hike through a stunning redwood forest or ride a rollercoaster at the seaside boardwalk, Santa Cruz has something for everyone. And its mild climate makes it the perfect destination to visit any time of year. There is two bikes for your use upon request.

A magical escape

Our hostess was attentive to our needs --including a welcoming sign, and assistance with operating the barbecue and fire pit.Beautiful gardens , incredible ocean view and sound of the ocean contributed to a wonderful dinner on the large backyard patio.The house was easily accessible but the studio and patio had a sense of seclusion.We were in a wonderful quiet place of art, color and nature .Many thanks to our hostess.

Loved Our Stay!

My husband and I spent two glorious weeks at Jeanell’s and loved every minute of it! Jeanell was the consummate host, immediately available and responsive if we had a question or needed anything, but completely unobtrusive. We couldn’t get over the panoramic views of the ocean, spent many mornings enjoying coffee on the huge patio. King-sized bed was super comfy. Lots of nearby great restaurants. Wonderful stay. Thanks Jeanell!

Nice Little Studio

The place was a nice little studio. It was very cozy. The location is top notch. To be able to take ten steps and have sweeping ocean views was amazing. It was so lovely to watch the sun set at one end of the bay and rise on the other. Falling asleep to the gentle sound of crashing waves was so peaceful. The walls are thin but everyone was respectful and kept things quiet. If you're looking for a night or two by the beach, this is the place for you!

Trip Away.

Very cluttered and was underneath the house? The bed was very uncomfortable. Fortunately we only needed for one night. Not much to do in the area and you have to pay to go to the beach. Odd?

5 Year Anniversary Trip

My partner and I reserved this studio from Jeanell for our 5 year anniversary and if we had to use 1 word to describe the experience and location it would be: Enchanting! Jeanell was such a wonderful host, everything from the outdoor patio to the cute kitchenette to the bathroom and bed, you can really tell that every detail was placed with intention. She was incredibly inviting and hospitable, and made our stay magical! She has 2 very cute and friendly dogs who also added a nice charm and warmth to the experience. The studio we stayed in had a breathtaking view of the ocean from our bed and bathroom, and our private yard was spacious and clean, with plenty of areas to lounge and soak in the sun. The rooftop hot tub area was one of our favorite locations, offering a 360* view of the ocean and beach. This was a trip of a lifetime and one we will certainly not forget, and we look forward to staying here again!

HEAVEN ON A HILLSIDE

Driving up to the house I knew this was going to be amazing. Gorgeous and very unique home! You enter through a bold yet beautiful artsy gate. The groundsare spectacular. We stayed in the bungalow in the back of the house. After walking through a few adorable gates and a very fun display of local art and mermaid statues youare hit with a spectacular view of the ocean. Like unbelievable views in all directions. Loung chairs, observation table and chairs right on the fence line. We were there quite a bit. In the evening we enjoyed sitting around a big fire pit. Now for the indoors. Now this was right up my alley. Bohemian meets artsy and a bit of african art. Gorgeous decor, drapes and a FABULOUS bathroom. Artysy tiled tub and and shower reminded me of a lagoon. A special thank you gift in a basket from our gracious hostess. This place had everything inside and out you could possibly need. If you forgot something, it was there. We will be back forever. I wish! Thank you, Tom & Suzi King
