About this house rental

Romantic Retreat: This fantastically located, atmospheric guest house was custom designed by the owner. This intimate home is ideal for two and perhaps a well behaved canine! Take a hop and a skip down the street to the cliffs of Pleasure Point, where you can surf yourself or view the surfers down below while you walk. After your stroll, you can rinse off in the outdoor shower before you soak in the bubbling cedar wood hot tub. Enjoy the privacy, the curling leaves of the pepper tree, and the lovely music of the wind chimes. Swing in a hammock as you cool off. There is a small hot tub deck and a small outdoor area in front of the house near the garden with bubbling fountain.

The bungalow boasts Spanish tile floors, a romantic sleeping loft with sky lights, a custom built desk and bookshelf, atmospheric lighting on dimmers, many books of poetry and about spirituality. Please note that you cannot stand in the loft, which most people very cosy. The feeling of the house is peaceful and the neighborhood quiet. We have several DVDs, many of them romantic comedies, as well as instant Netflix. We also provide Direct tv so that you can watch your favorite channels.

You can walk to nearby 41st Ave. to great cafes and restaurants, or drive to picturesque Capitola Village for unique stores and boutiques.

The house and location are great for people wanting a peaceful atmosphere. Great feeling house for reading, meditating, writing and contemplation, or spending quality time with that special someone. It is wonderful to walk out the door and be able to stroll along the beach during minus tide times, or to explore beaches nearby. It is a short drive to picturesque Capitola Village, and Santa Cruz has great hiking trails as well as even more awesome beaches.

I can't say enough about how wonderful this stay was. The host was available and attentive, the accomodations were clean and comfortable, the beach and cliffs are right down the road, great coffee shop and dining a couple blocks away, and the hot tub is fantastic! I highly recommend the romantic retreat for a cooule!

We were visiting Santa Cruz to attend a graduation. Our stay was very nice. We especially loved the hot tub, walking to the beach and coffee (Verve) in the morning. Excellent location and hosts.

My wife and I loved this cozy little place while we visited the area. It was clean, the hot tub was great for 2, and close to the beach. It felt very private and the parking was great as we were road-tripping through the area and didn’t feel worried about leaving stuff in the car. We would stay here again.
