Seascape Resort Ocean View Studio "The View for Yo

SagayarajRating, 5 stars2 months ago

The place is great! Beautiful location and great access to private beach. It’s one room as described, equipped kitchen and dining. Although it says for 4 people, 2 people have to use the sofas to sleep. Good for couple and 2 children. I would definitely recommend this place and location.

2 bdrm Bungalow 3 blocks from the Beach

JillRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago

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 :)

Cottage in Santa Cruz

Hawaiian Beach House-1 block beach-Family Friendly

JessicaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

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 😏

Rio Del Mar Beach House.

JacquieRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Our stay here was amazing. The view was awesome, location was perfect and it was the perfect place to stay with two little ones. The beds and furniture were all so comfy and the backyard was a great spot to hang out. Being right on the beach was so relaxing, and hearing the waves at night was priceless. We’ll definitely be back.

Spruce Beach Cottage - Walk to beach

MichelleRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

The cottage was a great little cozy spot for our family while we explored the surrounding area. We had a great time and especially loved having a place to cook our own meals. The house had everything we needed and it was clean and tidy.

Private Cottage with a View

KimberlyRating, 5 stars2 months ago

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!

2B/2B Pajaro Dunes with Dunes and Ocean View

LisaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

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.

Peaceful & Private Seabright, 1 mile from beach

BridgetRating, 5 stars3 days ago

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!

Beautiful Ocean View 2 BR-Seascape-Miles of Beach

SandyRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We spent several nights in David’s condo, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. I had kind and timely communication with David even before our arrival, and the condo itself was just perfect. The pictures don’t do it justice, it is in a very peaceful, private area and closer to the water than expected. Breathing the ocean air and the sound of waves is so healing. I watched humpback whales breach and dolphins feeding, it was very pleasant to have pelicans flying right past as well. The sunsets were beautiful and it was such excellent viewing at any time of day with 2 deck levels to choose from. You can view the coast from Santa Cruz all the way down to Monterey! The condo is tastefully decorated and spacious, and the beds were extremely comfortable with cozy quilts and pillows. There are comfy throws for your lap and many other homey touches. The condo has so many dishes and pots and pans it’s easy to cook a meal. I can’t wait to stay there again. Thank you David!

Seascape Resort Villa Beautiful Ocean View Sleep 6

LenaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

We had a wonderful short getaway at Sue’s place! The condo is just steps from the beach, pool, and jacuzzi. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves was relaxing, and the ocean breeze was very refreshing. It was exactly what we needed to reset and recharge. Everything was just as described, and we would stay here again! Thank you, Sue!

Beach Front Villa and Seascape Resort

KateRating, 5 stars9 months ago

Staying at Seascape was the perfect kid-friendly vacation. The pool was easy to access from our condo and the views were beautiful. The condo's set-up with two bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs and a half bath downstairs was great for our family of 5. The private beach was beautiful - we saw otters, whales, and my son found two perfect sand dollars walking down the beach. It was a little bit of a trek to get down to the beach with three little kids and all the beach gear, but once we were there no one wanted to leave. Several near-by restaurants were delicious, especially the newly opened Dos Pescados. It was fairly easy to get into Santa Cruz too, but we did have to time traffic or it would double the drive time (to almost 45 minutes).

Beach View, Pet Friendly, 1 Min Walk to Sand

Beth RoseRating, 5 stars4 months ago

Clean, well-appointed, spacious home less than a block from the beautiful Twin Lakes Beach. You can see the beach from chairs on the front lawn. We were lucky enough to be there during the lighted boat parade (first Saturday in December), so we watched the lighted boats in the water from the front yard. Everything was easily accessible. The home includes many amenities (washer/dryer, cooking supplies, games, pack n play). The room with the bunk beds has a separate bathroom, making it really nice for families with older kids. Great stay and I hope we can return.
