Steps to the ocean (4 houses down), Seabright beach (2 blocks) and the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. Come enjoy this historic house on E Cliff, there are even partial ocean views from the balcony & laughter from the boardwalk can be heard!

The Space:
- Comfortably sleeps up to 5 adults
- 2 bedrooms
- 2 bathrooms
- 2 reserved parking spaces in the garage (this is strictly enforced, as the parking area is shared with other units). There is parking on the street, but keep in mind an open spot is hard to come by during the busy months.

Note:
- No gatherings or parties allowed (strictly enforced)
- The exterior of this home is monitored by 24/7 surveillance recording devices for safety.

- Smart TVs with streaming capabilities (no local channels or cable).

- The wall heaters are temporarily out of order, we have placed multiple space heaters in the home that do a great job of warming up the space!

The town's lively downtown area is dotted with eclectic shops, art galleries, and diverse dining options.

Nice little place
Nice small rental. Very clean and new style. Really close to go see the ocean but you cant really get down to the sand easily. Close walk to the boardwalk.

Wonderful Vacation Spot for Kids
My kiddos and I had a wonderful stay at this property. The property was clean and the instructions were easy to follow. It is walking distance to Verve, Betty's Burgers, Engfer Pizza Works, Tramonti, SeaBreeze Cafe and La Posta, just to name a few of our favorite eating spots. It is also walking distance to the Beach Boardwalk and Ocean View Park. Great spot for traveling with older children (8-12+). Already planning our next visit.

Comfortable stay in a great location
My family of 4 (including a 5 and 7 year old) had a great stay at the Surf House. The property is new, clean, comfortable, and stocked with everything you need. Lots of windows that really make the space feel open and bright. We loved that each room had its own HVAC unit so you could set each thermostat to your own preferred temperature. The location was great, walkable to the Boardwalk (where we spent a lot of our time), the beach, and a great assortment of restaurants and some shops. If our kids were a little older, we probably could have walked downtown too. Anything else was a short drive away. (Do heed the advice about parking. We were able to fit an SUV in the garage, but we were carefully threading that needle each time we pulled in and out). Communication with the management team was excellent. They were prompt and responsive to any of our emails and questions. We can't wait to stay at the Surf House again!
