Girls Weekend Success
This was our second time renting Crystal‘s fantastic house for our girls weekend. This year we were nine women and we stayed for three nights. We enjoyed the hot tub and the backyard between rain showers. The living space was very comfortable inside! And the sleeping arrangements were very comfortable as well! We just can’t say enough about how wonderful this place is and how easy it is to work with Crystal!

A little piece of heaven in Santa Cruz
We just completed a fabulous stay at Crystal's home. The place is incredibly spacious and well though out. Everything was labeled and the little touches like the bathrobes and checkin snacks were a nice surprise. Crystal was an absolute pleasure to communicate with and made everything smooth and easy. We will be back!

Incredible house
The house was absolutely perfect! We stayed with two other families and the big room was ideal for the kids! The outdoor area was stunning and a great space for the kids to run around.

Family Gathering
Great location, preheated hot tub and hotel type bathrobes, and a well stocked kitchen for our big family. There were plenty of games and outdoor equipment for kids to ride/use as well as a beautiful backyard for them to run around in. Ez entry and communication with the owners made it a smooth landing for our trip from South Orange County. We will book again!

Beautiful home with all the amenities
We had a high school basketball tournament in San Jose, and our team stayed at this house for two nights. The four bedrooms were able to hold 10 high school girls and the coaches. The carpets in the largest bedrooms have enough cushion for sleeping bags, and the beds are all comfortable. The cleanliness and amenities at this property are wonderful.

We stayed here with three families (12 people) and would absolutely stay here again! The house was spacious and clean, and the backyard was perfect for the kids. We grilled, made s’mores, went in the hot tub, and played catch on the lawn. Just 15 minutes to Santa Cruz boardwalk, too.

Awesome host and place
Crystal was very nice and thorough with her explanation of checking in. Check in was a breeze. The house was much more spacious than I imagine. Houses usually look bigger in the pictures but not this house. It is huge and roomy with plenty of place to sit inside and outside the house. Plenty of parking as well. Overall, I will definitely book this place again.

About the host

Hosted by Crystal

Host profile image
I have lived in Santa Cruz all of my life. I am married with two kids. We love to travel the world but I have to say Santa Cruz has a special place in our heart. Santa Cruz has something for everyone. I have been running vacation rentals now for over 14 years and continue to I love meeting new people from all over the world and help them make their time here special and memorable.

Why they chose this property

This house is great for those who are trying to have privacy and space for their entire group but also wanting to be close to all the fun things Santa Cruz has to offer. This house is located in Soquel which is centrally located to great beaches like Capitola Beach, Rio Del Mar, and Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. This property allows families and friends to come together and be under one roof to spending quality time together.

What makes this property unique

This 4000 square foot house is located on 1 acre lot. The back yard has an oversized cement patio space which is great for entertaining as well as over 1500 square feet of artificial lawn for the kids to play and run around, not to mention a full size horseshoe pit. The inside is just as amazing. The downstairs is an open floor plan that includes a beautiful high-end kitchen, great spaces for dining/entertaining, as well as a space for relaxing on the couch in front of the TV/media center.
