Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Santa Cruz

Hi there. I made this booking for my boss. She said Angel's place was 10/10 :)

the apartment was very easy to settle into me the kitchen is decently stocked with cooking utensils, pots, pans, silverware. the living room is comfortable, bedroom has a comfortable bed, decent desk with a monitor. there is coin op laundry and a parking spot. there are supermarkets, coffee shops and restaurants a short walk away. the place worked out very well.

Had everything that we needed!

The location was perfect for shopping, great gym, perfect accommodations- the space was large enough and kitchen was perfect. I would recommend any one to stay here it was perfect.

As expected, a gorgeous place. Location is great—right across the Tesla shop, walking distance to everywhere in Santana Row. Highly recommended.

This apartment is perfect for a fun visit to Santa Cruz. It’s a new construction with convenient, safe parking situated downtown. Everything in the apartment is clean, new and well thought out. The best part is the prompt and thorough host. Dave immediately responded to any concerns or needs we had and everything about check in and check out was easy and clear. Honestly, for a couple or small family visiting for the weekend (or longer!) you can’t do better than this.

Nicole was very specific on check in and check out instructions which is super important for this property. Everything was clean and as expected. Great stay! Thank you!

Nice apartment complex with great location. But a little bit hard to navigate and find the exact unit If the instructions were not properly sent before arrival. Walkable to court of grocery, Starbucks and quick bites. The area is very safe also.

Stayed with my husband and parents here for our wedding week that was happening in the area. The place was plenty spacious for 4 people! Much better than a hotel room would’ve been. Gave us quality time cooking in the kitchen and hanging out in the living room, enjoying the hottub & heated pool and the beach! The ocean view from the dining table and the front porch is STUNNING!! The place is nice, well kept, and has everything you need! Any small things that popped up, Patti was helpful and fixed right away! Would definitely stay here again!!

Great host- from the time we booked the Airbnb until the time we signed out (and after), Kwesi was always available, and genuinely interested in how we were doing G, what else we might need, etc. Great place- clean, quiet, beautiful, nice location.

We had an amazing time at Devin's. We came in for a work trip and Devin's spot was perfect for unwinding and had plenty of space for us to work aswell. The bed was comfy, the place was beautiful, and the spa bath was amazing! The kitchen was also well stocked with coffee and cookware. Devin was also very communicative and helpful throughout our stay. Definitely would stay again.

Very comfortable place for our family. Lots of space. Was great to have 3 full bathrooms. Loved spending time on the patio. Place was equipped with everything we needed. Only thing to be aware of if you need a very quiet place to sleep is that, given that you are in Santana Row, it can sometimes be loud at night. The owners gave very detailed instructions which made the check in process easy.

This was one of the best Airbnb stays I’ve had. Tucked in a quiet, green neighborhood just minutes from downtown Palo Alto, the location was perfect. Peaceful & residential, yet incredibly convenient. Having an organic grocery store within walking distance was a big plus. The home itself is beautifully done, spotless, thoughtfully designed, & filled with everything you might need for a comfortable and relaxed stay. The kitchen was well-equipped, the bed was cozy, and the entire space had a calm, welcoming vibe that instantly put me at ease. But what truly elevated the experience was Johana. She is one of the kindest and most considerate hosts I’ve ever met, warm, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure everything was perfect. Whether it was a quick question or a small request, she was always just a message away and incredibly thoughtful in her responses. You can tell she really cares. I would stay here again in a heartbeat & I am looking forward to it.

This lovely studio was clean and in a quiet neighborhood, yet walkable to everything. I especially loved being near the ocean. We could hear the seals bark in the morning. Team was very responsive and easy to work with!

Great apartment that is close to the airport and easy to find. Was given great step by step instructions on how to access the apartment. It was actually bigger than I anticipated and quite quiet.

The place was exactly as described. Clean, spacious and well equipped with amenities needed. The neighbourhood was very peaceful with many restaurants and grocery stores at walking distance. We had a peaceful and pleasant stay at this property. Would definitely come back and recommend 👍🏻

Tam's home was clean, convenient, and very nice. Our dog especially liked the multiple oversize dog beds around the house. We would happily return.

You will not regret staying here. Debra and David were so incredibly nice. The house and the outdoors/garden are beautiful. We loved the hot tub being off the master suite and the fact there are no neighbors so it’s incredibly quiet. It’s in a great location near both downtown and the fairgrounds. We can’t wait to return. We might need to add more nights because we had such a fantastic time. Thanks Debra. So great to meet you and David!!

The house was 4 bedrooms with one en suite bathroom and a second full bathroom. It was clean and well equipped. It was close to hiking trails and close to Los Gatos where we were going to a wedding. We would recommend the house.

This stay was fantastic. As a family of 4-there was space and it was well furnished. The stay is right off of the highway and at a great location. Ron was helpful and prompt.

I loved my long term stay here! This airbnb is well equipped with every amenity, it is spacious, it's in a nice area of south san jose, parking is provided, and on top of it all the hosts are fantastic. The hosts went out of their way to make accommodations for the stay and even helped when I was stuck without a car - I highly recommend the stay!

Thank you Joanna for sharing your home with my family from out of town. The home was very beautiful and spacious. We all enjoyed you home. Would recommend this to people looking for a private home.

Thank you again for a great week!

My family and I spent Christmas and New Year's at Justin's place, enjoying his beautiful decorated tree, thoughtful gifts, and delicious cake from a well known bakery and the stunning views of the mountains and city lights, including a firework show from the city. Justin‘s house is just big enough that we all have our own personal space but cozy enough that as a family we were all together.
