Oceanview Bungalow With Hot Tub - Walk To Beach - Pet Friendly

This Beach Bungalow was pleasantly remodeled and provides a spacious and relaxing retreat for your Santa Cruz getaway. 2 Bedrooms with king size beds and 2 bathrooms. Savor breakfast and complimentary Keurig coffee on the deck overlooking majestic Monterey Bay Views. Sunbath on the deck and BBQ lunch or spend your day on Seacliff State beach with public bathrooms. Only a five minute walk down the Beach Gate trail. Go exploring to the surrounding beach side towns, restaurants and antique shops.. The chef's kitchen provides all the necessary equipment to prepare a gourmet meal, or take advantage of the built-in outdoor gas BBQ. If you don't feel like cooking the bungalow is within walking distance of great local restaurants, and a short drive to the resort towns of Capitola and Santa Cruz.

Beautiful spot!
We all loved our stay! The house was perfect for the 6 of us (4 adults, 3 yr old & a 16 month old). It’s an easy walk down the trail to the beach, the front deck was a welcome sunny spot for afternoon chats and the back yard and hot tub were a welcomed and lovely bonus at the end of the day. The hosts were easily reached, check in and out were simple. The perfect beach getaway! We highly recommend it!

Great views and easy beach access!
The house was totally nice and very clean. We are a family of 4 with 2 college aged kids. We also brought our dog and it was a Perfect setup. Great location right above Seacliff beach and walking distance to shops and food. Backyard jacuzzi with outdoor shower was a nice plus! Highly recommend!

Relaxing and convenient beach stay
My family (two teens, my husband, dog and I) had a great stay at the Beach Bungalow in Aptos. Property is super cute and clean. Close to restaurants, cafes and shops. Quick walk to the Beach. Water in the bathroom shower took a LONG time to get hot, but the hot tub was amazing and had a nice outdoor shower.

Awesome stay in Aptos
Great communication with owner prior to our stay. Cottage looks even better in person. Very clean and spacious, hear the waves breaking from the front deck. Short quick walk to beach and town. Three tv’s, plenty of towels, TP, cleaning products and spices if you choose to cook, although owner had great restaurant recommendations. Would definitely stay again. 😀

Very clean and a great location!
I stayed here with 5 other girlfriends and it was fabulous. The front deck was our main hangout area with great views, we even saw whale spouts! It's a nice quiet street with easy access to the beach and delicious Mexican food and ice cream down the street. The hot tub and back patio were also lovely and the beds were comfortable. It was a great affordable getaway accommodation for us! The only reason it's not 5 star is the shower heads were low and weak.

Fun at the Beach
We had a great time enjoying out getaway from the heat The accommodations were perfect for us and our senior dog Our dog was able to walk up the 5 steps on the porch and we took her out through the back patio 2 steps. Sea glass hunting was its finest with the appearance of rock piles on Seacliff Beach. The neighborhood is quiet and we felt very safe. We hope to stay again in the future

Lovely Place
The place was nice and cozy and had a lovely beach casual feel to it. The front deck with ocean view was a perfect spot to hangout with a small group and barbecue. Me, my husband, our 4 month old daughter and my parents stayed and we all loved it. We’d love to come back sometime. We brought a Pack n Play for our 4 month old to sleep in, which fit in front of the dresser by the French doors. It worked nicely for us as we did not need to use the dresser. The back yard is also very nice and inviting. Sid was easy to communicate with and provided all the info we needed for a wonderful stay.

Perfect!
We loved this place! While the ocean view is partially obscured by the houses across the street you can hear the waves crashing and see from Moss Landing to Capitola. We were in town for my sister's wedding and had our two dogs and another couple traveling with us. The weather was the perfect Indian Summer expected in this area in the Fall! We had a lovely walk down the trail/steps to the beach with our dogs...if you are up to it this is a definite MUST! We had 8 for dinner one night and found the kitchen nicely stocked with everything we needed for the meal's preparation (with the exception of maybe olive oil) and the BBQ on the patio was perfect! I am also a fan of stoves with gas cook tops and open kitchen/livingroom floor plans and this place just felt like home the minute we walked in the front door! The front deck was MUCH nicer that the photos depict and was just perfect for our morning coffee (so nice to have coffee and Keurig maker provided). With the lovely weather we also found ourselves enjoying our evening cocktails and dinners out on the front deck! The beds and pillows were VERY comfortable (which I have found not always to be the case with VRBO rentals). The photos don't do the living room justice either as we found the seating to be ample and quite comfortable! The back yard was perfect for our dogs, and while surrounded closely by neighbors on all sides, feels secluded with the beautiful landscaping. The bamboo just needs to grow a bit taller to block the one deck that looks down into the back yard (we were fortunate that no one was ever on that deck so we didn't feel any intrusion when we were in the back yard). We enjoyed the jacuzzi in the morning as well and having the outdoor shower right next to it was quite convenient. We would absolutely recommend this lovely home and will definitely stay here again!

I’ve stayed at many vacation rentals, and this is one of the best. It’s one of the best because of the details. It’s well kept, and well appointed. And as a cherry on top, you can walk to the beach in 5-7 minutes. Highly recommended.
