About this property
Stunning Oceanfront - Sunset Magazine Home
Summary:
Welcome to this award-winning 3-bedroom home (Permit 171346)! Featured in the prestigious Sunset Magazine, this stunning property offers breathtaking ocean views and the perfect blend of modern amenities and coastal charm, providing a comfortable stay just a 5-minute walk from the beach, with a cul-de-sac next door that’s a local favorite viewpoint and gathering spot.
The Space:
- Comfortably sleeps up to 6 adults
- 3 bedrooms - king bed, queen bed, and 2 twin beds
- 2 bathrooms
- 1 reserved parking spot in the driveway of the home + extra parking available in the nearby culdesac
- Fully stocked kitchen w/ drip coffee maker
- Living room w/ ocean view
- Ocean view loft & upstairs patio
- Spacious backyard with a hot tub, BBQ, and ocean front fenced in lawn for you to enjoy.
Also note:
- The exterior of this home is monitored by 24/7 surveillance recording devices for safety.
- No gatherings or parties allowed (strictly enforced)
- Smart TVs with streaming capabilities (no local channels or cable).
- No pets permitted (service animals are allowed but please be aware the next-door neighbor has dogs and the fence separating the property does not create a great barrier. Also, the stairs in the home are difficult for many dogs to navigate. For these reasons, it is not a great home for service animals.)
Guest Access:
Guests will have access to the entire home, except for the garage, which is reserved for owners storage.
The Neighborhood:
Pleasure Point is a beloved coastal neighborhood. Known for its world-class surfing, laid-back ambiance, and breathtaking ocean views, it's a haven for beachgoers and water enthusiasts. The iconic surf breaks like "The Hook" attract surfers from around the world. This vibrant community boasts a unique blend of surf shops, cafes, and local boutiques. Stroll along East Cliff Drive, savor fresh seafood, or catch a mesmerizing sunset from the cliffs. With its bohemian spirit and proximity to the lively Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Pleasure Point offers a quintessential California beach experience.
This is not a good place for gatherings or parties so please keep that in mind when booking this home. We are very respectful of our neighbors and will not tolerate loud noise past curfew and additional guests at the property.
Getting Around:
- The Point Market (4 min walk)
- Capitola Village (5-10 min drive)
- Santa Cruz Main Beach & Boardwalk (15 min drive)
- The Mystery Spot (20 min drive)
- The Forest of Nisene Marks (20 min drive)
- Nearest grocery store: Whole Foods, New Leaf, Safeway, etc. (15 minute drive)
- Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park (30 min drive)
Other Things to Note:
- Please note there are fences around the property, but they are low and do not create privacy from surrounding neighbors and the general public passing by.
- This home shares a wall with the home next door. When looking at the marketing photos, the fence line shows the separation between this home & the home next door. They look like one full unit, but they are completely separate. Photos can be misleading and make it look like it is one larger home.
- We highly discourage our guests from bringing pets to stay as the home is not safe for pets :( The fence along the perimeter of the yard facing the street has gaps underneath large enough for a pet to get under. The stairs in the home also have gaps large enough that a pet could potentially fit through :( For these reasons we highly discourage bringing pets to stay at this property.
- We are required to stick to our cancellation policy and we suggest adding trip insurance for any last minute issues that may impact your travel (Weather, Illness, etc). We are not able to cancel, move or refund bookings that do not fall in our cancellation policy for any reason.
- We have landscapers, pest service, hot tub, and other property maintenance done on a weekly basis. You may see or hear these service professionals during your stay as they let themselves into the backyard to service as needed. Please be sure to ask about this before booking if you think it might be an issue for you.
- TV is a smart tv with streaming capabilities. There are no cable or local channels.
- The exterior of this home is monitored by 24/7 surveillance recording devices for safety.
