Condo vacation rentals in Santa Cruz

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!

We will be back! Absolutely gorgeous! The only thing we were unaware of is the $200 fee to use the bonfire pits. It’s one of the reasons we wanted to stay and unfortunately we didn’t want to spend the money on it after thinking it came with the hotel stay. Pools were great! Very accommodating and friendly staff!

We stayed during spring break with our 2 young children. The home was equipped with everything we needed. Place was clean, views were amazing. We even spotted dolphins from the kitchen window one morning. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Our family loved this spot. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet, and the ocean views and fireplace made it a very cozy stay.

Great apartment in a fantastic location. Right above all the fun restaurants and shops of Santana Row. The apartment is well furnished. Having 3 bathrooms was a huge plus for our group of 6. Highly recommend!

Loved our stay! The view was beautiful, could hear the ocean waves, close to the pool/spa and hotel shuttle to the beach was fabulous. The room was clean and had everything we needed for us and our 2 kids. Greg’s communication was great. Will definitely book again!

We had a fabulous time here and we will be back again. The location at the beach cannot be beat and the view from the upstairs primary bedroom is stunning. Everything was clean and comfortable, and every need was provided for - throws and blankets, beach towels and chairs, games, etc. We really appreciated the wine and cheese welcome gift. Communication was excellent - if we had any question, the host company responded immediately. The people at the gate were friendly and didn't treat us like outsiders. Our family loved every minute of our stay!

What can we say...this is one of our FAVORITE airbnb home away from homes...we have been back to Marjie and Joffrey's place so many times now and simply love it more and more each time! It's beautiful, relaxing, located in the absolute most perfect spot...and we just adore everything about it!!! Marjie is the sweetest, we always have fun chatting back and fourth and we are just so thankful for their place that has now been the back drop to so many of our families beautiful memories together :). We can't wait to visit again!!!!

Great place. Exactly what we needed. Conveniently located, quiet home base for our visit. Will use this place again if we come back.

Great location. We had one of our office guests stayed at the place. He felt very comfortable with the location. The local vibe of Willow Glen is really hidden jewel in San Jose area and 5 min drive to San Jose downtown. Thank you!

Nice studio. It was clean and met our needs.

Excellent place to stay. Fantastic host. Great value. Enjoyed our stay and would be back to stay again.

Wonderful stay on Santana Row. The location can’t be beat. Steps away from restaurants and shopping. Plenty of space for the entire family. The outdoor space was a lovely place to relax and enjoy the beautiful weather. We’ll definitely be back!

Ryan is a great host answered all of our questions, addressed our requests/needs promptly. A neat safe place near shopping and close to Stanford university met our goal of staying in the area.

Mayela’s place is conveniently located to shopping, freeway and food. Parking was a little tight but doable. Neighbors were very nice.

We had a lovely stay for almost 3 months -- 2 people and a small dog. It was a very good value. I want to call out the hosts for being very responsive and friendly. I highly recommend them. The review by "Volkan" in October 2024 is very accurate and detailed. There are some cautions to be aware of, but nothing caused significant problems for us. I worked from the bedroom several days, and bought electrical adapters from Home Depot to deal with the wiring. Nearby Henry Schmidt Park was a fun place to take the dog. Neighbors were friendly.

I had an incredible experience staying at Kitty’s place! The home was cozy, and the location was perfect. The host was super responsive and went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to book this place again. Thank you for a fantastic stay!

We had a wonderful weekend at this lovely home! The house was very clean and well-maintained, and it’s located in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood that made for a relaxing stay. It’s just a short walk to the beach, which was super convenient. One of the highlights was the amazing view of the ocean right from the house absolutely stunning. Highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again!

Tess was a great host! Went above and beyond to help us enjoy our stay! Love the location.

We had a wonderful trip and can’t wait to come back.

Hosts were very accommodating and communicative. Would stay with them again.

Great place, comfy, and felt like a home. The location was easily accessible to major roadways which made driving very easy. With a host who was very responsive and clear, there was nothing else that I would ask for out of a vacation stay.

Beautiful property with unbeatable views. We loved sitting out on the deck and looking out at the ocean. The fireplace was awesome too. The location, parking, and amenities were all convenient and as described.

Just as described- beautiful condo in a wonderful location. Would definitely book again.
