Photos and Description of the Santa Cruz vacation cottage rental Oceanfront Studio Cottage Vacation Rental Santa Cruz, California USA

If you're searching for the perfect place for a romantic weekend or honeymoon, this is the spot! A most exquisite oceanfront getaway featuring spectacular oceanfront views of the Monterey Bay Marine Sanctuary, this tiny cottage is tucked away on an oceanfront bluff -- 100 feet above the beach in the middle of Sunset Beach State Park. Special features include a charming sandy patio and deck with an outdoor fireplace, a cozy cushioned window seat for reading or napping, a new gas barbecue, a patio set, and a sweeping view from Carmel to Santa Cruz. This lovely home is tucked away in a tiny oceanfront community of 60 homes; yet it's just a short drive to the Monterey Peninsula, and just 1.5 hours to San Francisco up the famous Pacific Coast Highway. Amenities include cable TV, a VCR, and a stereo. The full kitchen includes a blender, toaster, microwave, gas stove, and latte maker.

Notes: Seashell is so special because it is perched on a hill half way down to the beach. It has its own little microclimate because even on windy days the deck and patio area remains warm and sunny. It is a very special little spot ~ and many of our guests return again and again. The latest addition is an upper deck with outdoor fireplace and high speed wireless internet access so you can bask in the sun and still stay in touch with the office.

Review Submitted: July 18, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
We had a fabulous time at the Seashell Cottage. It is the perfect place to relax, reconnect and do as much or as little as you want. My husband and I both like to cook so spent our evenings out on the deck enjoying the beautiful view, drinking wine and cooking on the 'george foreman' grill. It was perfect! Days were spent on the beach and exploring the area. There are 2 sets of stairs down from the parking area to the cottage, my husband was on the tail end of recovering from knee surgery and did fine. To access the beach it is also a little bit of a walk even though the cottage is as close as you can get to the sea. We enjoyed everything about our stay and will be back again.

If you are looking for a romantic, cozy, pet-friendly get-away, you've found it. The decor depicts perfectly that you are at the beach. Beautiful sunsets, ocean breezes and friendly surroundings. We have stayed at Seashell several time and have always enjoyed our stay. All the comforts of home. Our toy poodles love it too!
