This beautiful, historic, Spanish style home is one of four ‘Spanish Sisters' that was built in 1929 by architect L.W. Miller. Our guest casita was designed with attention to detail and luxurious comfort. While new to VRBO, please see our many 5 star reviews on Air….

The casita is 0.5 miles from the east entrance to UCSC, 1.5 miles from the beach and 1 mile from downtown Santa Cruz.

You will have your own entrance, the casita is quiet, private, very comfortable and spacious with 1000+ sq ft of living space. Enjoy a peek of the ocean whilst luxuriating on your own secluded patio with a delicious glass of locally sourced wine in hand.

There are two 7 speed bicycles with baskets, helmets and locks for you to enjoy. You will have all of the comforts of home with luxury linens, amenities and toiletries. The kitchen is fully stocked and a simple breakfast, coffee & tea bar, spirits bar, welcome wine and a computer are all yours to enjoy.

You will have access to beach equipment including a boogie board, chairs, beach games, sun umbrella, backpack cooler and towels. The casita has Saltillo tile with many area rugs but you may want to bring house slippers or socks for your comfort.

The bed is made up euro-style with a Restoration Hardware feather duvet, feather pillows, luxury duvet cover and no top sheet. If you prefer a top sheet, there is one in the closet for you to use along with extra blankets etc. There is a hypoallergenic pillow in the closet if you prefer.

The bathroom is well stocked with every hair care/styling product you could possibly need for all hair types. You will find plenty of face/body care and other sundries should you need them. There is a Dyson hairdryer with diffusers for straight or curly hair, flat iron and curling iron for your use as well. Simply bring your own personal comb/brush and viola!

** 𝑷𝑳𝑬𝑨𝑺𝑬 𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒆 that your casita is for up to two guests only. The bedroom has an extraordinarily comfortable queen size, pillow top bed with luxurious linens and pillows.

** 𝑫𝒖𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒇𝒓𝒂𝒈𝒊𝒍𝒆 𝒏𝒂𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆 of the decor as well as a gas burning fireplace serving as your heater, crawling children through age 12 are discouraged for safety reasons.

** 𝑷𝑳𝑬𝑨𝑺𝑬 𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒆 that your casita is partially below our home. While we do not have children, dogs, nor wear shoes in the house when we have friends/family visit you may be aware of us as from time to time. Please know that you will have ultimate privacy during your stay. Sound does 𝑵𝑶𝑻 travel up from the casita. Again, feel free to peruse our 300+ 5 star reviews on similar vacation rental listings such as Air… for more information around our guest’s comfort and happiness.

The county's stunning beaches are ideal for various activities, whether it's surfing, sunbathing, or enjoying leisurely walks along the shore, with the Pacific Ocean providing a breathtaking backdrop.

Nestled within these landscapes are the majestic redwood forests, offering serene and awe-inspiring hiking/biking trails through towering trees. These trails range in difficulty, catering to outdoor enthusiasts of all levels and providing unique views of the area's wildlife and natural splendor. Adding to the allure, Santa Cruz County is part of California's celebrated wine country. Local wineries welcome visitors to explore and taste their offerings, set amidst picturesque vineyards.

The region is also known for its vibrant community and an array of fun activities. From local markets and festivals to cultural events, there's a rich tapestry of experiences that reflect the unique character of Santa Cruz County.

Our little casita was perfect. Our hostesses had everything you would ever need. She thought of every special detail with chocolates on your pillow and a nice bottle of wine etc. Would highly recommend this gem with 5+ stars.
