Holiday rentals in Alum Rock

This was, by far, the best air bnb we have ever stayed in. In addition, Kim and Pam were fantastic and couldn’t have made our stay any better. They thought of everything to make a couple or family feel right at home. Everything was spotless, plenty of basics such as towels, linens, blankets to make your stay so cozy. And the beds, they were heaven. Great night’s sleep is definitely to be had. We used the fireplace inside when we arrived as it was chilly. Just perfect touch. Walk in shower is great. So nice to have two bathrooms, one with tub. Walking distance to beach. We went there every day with our dog. Very dog friendly area; you will encounter many daily. We appreciated the privacy and fenced yard, lovely entertaining area and the hammock was great. I highly recommend cloud gazing. Thank you, Kim and Pam for a truly memorable stay. We had the best time and you helped make it that way :)

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cozy cottage. An added bonus not mentioned in the description is the fabulous shower. For a small house, the size, cleanliness, and unlimited hot water of the shower is terrific!

beautiful home and location to spend the holidays with my sister and our families. kid friendly, short walk to the beach. house is comfortable and spacious. 10/10 ! hope to return someday

Every detail of this home was incredibly well thought out. There’s truly nothing you’ll need, it’s fully stocked with everything from games for the kids to all the cooking utensils you could want, and the beds are extremely comfortable. The patio and entry garden are absolutely stunning. The decor is perfect; every little detail was considered, and it really shows. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish- what a treat. I’m going to go home and redecorate with a Hawaii theme 😏

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

Very peaceful and secluded stay. Felt clean and vibrant in the home. Will definitely plan to stay again in the future.

This was my third stay- whenever I want to go off the grid but have all of the comforts of home, this is the first place I think of (I’d probably have more stays here but I am pretty much a spontaneous booker, so Vicki’s place isn’t always available when I want a local getaway). If you’re not local, it’s also a great home base for everything Santa Cruz County has to offer. Vicki is an excellent host and I highly recommend!

The beach was amazing, especially being able to walk out the door and only take a few steps to get there. The snack shop is limited but had some staples so it was definitely nice to bring some easy meals and we cooked most of them there. My had some basics there that made cooking easier (salt, oil, etc). Our two teenagers enjoyed having their own full bed. Stay here - great deal for a clean space.

Nikki and Ron are incredible hosts with the perfect Santa Cruz cottage! They go above and beyond to ensure that guests are comfortable. This is by far the cleanest Airbnb we have ever stayed in - every room and surface both inside and outside was spotless. We loved the serenity of the cottage, the fenced backyard with lots of very comfortable seating, and that everything we could possibly think of needing in a kitchen or a rental home is provided. Well appointed cottage and comfortable bed & linens & couches. Another bonus is the massive grass + fenced park just a 2 minute walk away for the dogs to run around. We would love to stay here again!
