Photos and Description of the Santa Cruz vacation house rental
4 Bedrooms, 3 Bathrooms (sleeps 6 adults max+ 3 kids)

Two story ocean view home. Totally rebuilt in 2009.4 bedrooms , 3 full baths, walled courtyard with fireplace and BBQ, tiled outdoor shower with hot water and much, much more. It is located four doors from the beach next to a great surfing spot!

The master bedroom suite is roomy, has ocean views and a deck .

Two large LCD swivel wall mounted HDTVs w/home theaters (52' downstairs and 40' upstairs w I Pod dock -HD Satellite with DirecTV HBO, etc. 32' LCD TV/DVD/VCR in the middle bedroom).

A spectacular master bath awaits upstairs with custom stonework everywhere, and a large, glass-block walk-in shower next to a large Jacuzzi jetted tub. Modern solid glass double vanity with waterfall faucets.

From the upstairs bedroom deck, enjoy an ocean view. Watch the sailboats and seagulls float by.

Restaurants Closeby: : Take a short stroll to one of the many nearby restaurants.Walk to Restaurants: Just 2 blocks to the Aloha Grill for Hawaiian-American cuisine (Grilled Pineapple Burgers) and cold beer. 5-10 minutes down E-Cliff, try the Nueva Southwestern Grill, the Deli-cious Cafe, Taqueria Michoacan, or Star Bene (Italian). In the other direction (south), an easy 15-20 minute walk down to Cole's BBQ, Rosita's, Guang Zho, or The Point Chophouse (Surf and Turf).

The East Cliff Yellow Beach House: Imagine yourself just steps away from one of Santa Cruz's best beaches! This vacation rental boasts stunning views, prime location, and a true taste of magic! Let your mind unwind and your body relax while sun bathing at the beach, in the courtyard or, on the ocean view deck.

This fully furnished and equipped home includes DIRECTV LCD television in LR and all 3 bedrooms, wireless internet, gourmet chefs' kitchen completely equipped including blender, coffee maker and warming tray; fireplace, stereo, DVDs, ocean views from front deck, master and 3rd bedrooms, and roof top deck; linens, washer/dryer, jacuzzi in master bathroom, outdoor shower - perfect after a swim or surfing.The back yard is equipped with gas BBQ and also an outdoor storage area complete with beach chairs, boogie boards, and more!

This is the first time this private home is offered as a vacation rental and it has all the comforts of home plus so much more!

Santa Maria Beach: It is difficult to adequately describe and do justice to this beach. A combination of good weather, great surfing spots, white sand, tide pools to explore with anemones, urchins, and hermit crabs. The accessible cliff and tide pools make it a favorite for families and all beach lovers. Surfers Paradise! Grab your surfboard and hop across the street to catch a wave at Santa Maria's surfing spots just steps away!

Note to Beach Vacation renters: Don’t be fooled by rentals that may have a good view from the house, but getting to a beach can be a, well, a real “beach”. Common problems are inaccessible or inconvenient beach access (steep cliffs), windy, foggy weather and small or no beaches at high tide (rentals on West Cliff, Pleasure Point, and Opal Cliffs have these problems.)

This home is beautiful, warm, clean and luxurious. It was everything and more than what was described. We lacked for nothing and felt spoiled living there for a week.

We were there with out kids and grandson and sometimes found it difficult to leave the comfort of this house. We enjoyed Capitola, Santa Cruz Downtown and Monterey throughout our stay and each day trip was relaxing because of the central location.

We highly recommend the local funky restaurant Paula's. It is only blocks away and the breakfast is delicious and inexpensive.

This beachhouse is very well appointed. The upstairs master is nicer than our own and quite a sanctuary from the kids rooms below. Hearing the surf at night and running our dog on the beach makes it perfect. highly recommended !!!!

Owner's Response: It is such a delight to receive reviews like this. We love to spend time on the beach with our dog and listening to the waves at night in the master suite. During the day, we also like to see the wildlife and sailboats from the balcony.

We stayed here over Thanksgiving week. The house was in great shape. The kitchen was VERY well stocked. It was also stocked with books, DVD's, and a few board games. The fireplace was nice and easy to use The home is a short 2-minute walk to the beach. The owner was helpful in answering our questions and returned our security deposit in a timely manner. Our dog was able to come for a small charge. I recommend this home.

Wonderful home for beach focused gathering in Santa Cruz!

Our family had a wonderful reunion at the East Cliff Yellow Beach House. Doretta was so wonderful to work with and very accommodating to our needs. She extended a warm welcome with home made jam, banana bread and treats from her garden. Both our four adult sons, my husband and I loved the beautifully decorated and comfortable family-focused home. All our needs were met ~ we loved cooking in the well appointed kitchen, sharing meals in the inviting eating spaces, relaxing on the patio, soaking in the jacuzzi tub, watching TV in the living room, playing games and sleeping soundly in the cozy beds. The second story master suite was luxurious, spacious and regal.
We highly recommend this lovely beach house for gatherings with family or friends. Beach access is a few steps away... it is a family and dog friendly beach that is fun to relax at or walk to your hearts' content.
Be sure to check out kayaking opportunities at Moss Landing/Elkhorn Slough ~ the wildlife is awesome!!

Great Beach House

Our extended family stayed for a week. The house is spacious and beautifully updated. The owners are friendly and helpful, easy to reach if you have questions during your stay. The house is a very short walk to a beautiful beach which is dog friendly. While there we saw a pod of dolphins only a few feet off the shore and enjoyed exploring the tide pools. The owners have thought of every amenity to make your stay carefree and enjoyable. I highly recommend this beach house--you won't be disappointed!!

This beach house is very nice, recently redone and has a great open layout. The owners left us a welcome basket with wine and local goodies, which was a very nice surprise when we checked in. The kitchen is stocked with everything you might need, including plastic plates, bowls and cups which was perfect for our toddlers. And the backyard was a great fenced in spot for our kids and dogs to play without worrying about safety. The house is just a block from the beach, so we spent a lot of time at the beach with the kids and dogs and everyone had a great time. Doretta was easy to work with and we really enjoyed everything about the house, thanks so much for a great Memorial Day weekend!
Owner's Response: Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review. The kid friendly tableware was a recent addition so that children could be more independent and feel "at home" as well. It is great to see that you noticed,appreciated,and commented on it. The local goodies are from our local kitchen and garden. Our hens produce some very tasty eggs that we share with our guests when our supply is plentiful. We hope to see you again so that you may enjoy the Santa Cruz coast and all its splendor.

I would recommend this house to anyone. We were a family of four with a dog, and we had a great time. The house is very well kept, with a fully stocked kitchen, and plenty of books and DVDs for downtime. There is an amazing jetted bathtub in the master bedroom, and plenty of places to lounge around and enjoy the fresh ocean air. It's very easy to keep the house clean, since it has an outdoor shower and laundry facility. There's even a boogie board and wetsuit, but unfortunately the wetsuit wouldn't fit me. The location is happily situated near Santa Cruz harbor, and between Capitola and downtown Santa Cruz. There are a couple very good restaurants within just a couple minutes drive, some within a few blocks walk. The beach is very close and allows bonfires before 10pm, and is extremely dog-friendly. Since we have a dog, we were very happy to be able to let him off his leash and enjoy himself.

Only issue is we expected there to be some beach towels for use, but we didn't see any. Other nice surprises more than made up for that, however.

Owner's Response: We really appreciate receiving these wonderful reviews and finding ways to improve our guests experience is very important to us. Since receiving this review, we have marked the outside of the outdoor storage drawer set with " beach towels" to make it easier for our guests to find the beach towels that we provide. Additionally, we are but a phone call or email away to get any questions answered or issues resolved.
