Santa Cruz townhome Rental Property Information

This oceanfront townhouse sits on the 26th Avenue Beach, between the Capitola and Santa Cruz piers, just west of Pleasure Point. The stage is set for your picturesque vacation with the dramatic ocean view from the 'Ship's Bridge' room. This second-floor room, overlooking the point, creates a sense of being on the ocean at the helm of a ship. The proximity to the ocean, combined with 41 feet of almost continuous glass, provides a powerful, restful feeling for your vacation. The View is situated on a point which sets the home farther out towards the ocean than any of the million-dollar homes on either side; so you have a complete 180-degree panoramic view of the ocean. The view is breathtaking and will command your attention -- during the day when the sun reflects off the water, and in the evening when the moon's reflection is captured in the silver lining curl of the waves. Every room, except the bathrooms, has an ocean view.

Even while cooking or washing the dishes, you can enjoy the ocean's entertainment, from the peacefulness of the breaking waves to the plethora of wildlife such as sea otters, porpoises, and birds. During the summer, don't miss the Wednesday night sailboat races, where all the boats cruise by, flying their spinnakers. There are accommodations for up to ten guests. Located upstairs is the master bedroom suite, that also has access to the balcony through a sliding glass door. It has a king-size bed which faces the west, with a view of the Santa Cruz wharf and lighthouse. If you're awake as sunrise begins, you'll be awed by the spectacular changes that take place as the world becomes light. The master bathroom features two sinks and a sunken tub, as well as a huge skylight. Downstairs are two bedrooms. One has a king-size bed and a sliding glass door to a patio. The other bedroom has a queen-size bed and a corner window overlooking the ocean.

The den has a bunk with the a double lower bed and a twin upper bed, as well as the queen-size sofa bed. It also has its own TV and stereo. There are two full bathrooms downstairs. One has a tub/shower while the other has a stall shower with a seat. The laundry includes a large capacity washer and dryer in the bathroom at the bottom of the stairs from the main floor. The upstairs living room is set just back from the 'Ship's Bridge' room, and has two views of the ocean. One is through the Bridge, and another is through the double sliding glass front door. The living room has a large padded sofa and a love seat where each side is a recliner. It's nearly impossible to lean all the way back without falling asleep to the sounds of the ocean. The 'Pirates Den,' the downstairs living area, is located under the 'Ship's Bridge' room and also boasts a full view of the ocean. There is a bunk bed, which sleeps two to three children depending upon their size and friendliness.

There are also a TV and stereo in this room. This is a great room for kids of all ages! Almost everyone who stays in this home is amazed at how well equipped we keep the kitchen. It's probably because we both like to cook. Many of our guests return each year for another week. We hope that you'll decide to return as well. The huge dining table will comfortably seat your group, with plenty of room for heaping platters of food. The dining area is located on one side of the bridge room with a cozy couch and love seat on the opposite side for relaxing while overlooking the ocean. Additional seating is located beyond the sliding glass door on the balcony complete with its own picnic table, lounge chairs, and barbecue. The hot tub is from Dimension One and has five seating locations with various jet configurations to massage different parts of your body. There are two loungers in the tub. The spa overlooks the ocean. There is a two-car garage plus one parking space by the front stairs.

Golf Information: Additional cars must be parked outside the fence by the street.
