Summary: Great property in a great location with a great host. Can’t really do better in Pleasure Point.

Summary: This is our second year staying at the Point Cottage and it did not disappoint! The cottage has an easy and comfortable layout which made our stay peaceful and relaxing. I loved that there are dressers to unpack your stuff and truly settle in. The kitchen has everything we needed and the entire place was clean and nicely decorated.We brought our dog with us and we enjoyed walking him to the dog friendly shops on 41st. The beaches were beautiful and we got to experience the most amazing tide pools just blocks from the cottage. We even got to meet Rippin’ Rosie, the surfing dog AND Santa! Such a treat!I hope we can make a yearly trip to stay at the Point Cottage. It’s a perfect spot in an amazing location. Can’t recommend enough!

Summary: The kitchen was perfect for our meal prep needs. Our dog had a wonderful time in the front yard. There was plenty of room for his dog bed inside and toys. The side yard was perfect for wetsuits and surfboards. Perfect location and space for relaxing and spending time together. Look forward to staying again!

Summary: We had a lovely stay at the cottage. The patio was nicer than pictured and we spent a lot of time hanging out outside. The cottage itself was very cozy and had everything we needed, including Tommy Bahama beach chairs for our whole family, a beach umbrella and a cooler. The cottage was toddler friendly and our kiddo had fun playing on the patio and sleeping in her own little twin bed. There are two reserved parking spots and street parking is pretty doable for extra vehicles.Location is ideal, especially if you’re surfing the Point. Added bonus, there is storage in a locked side yard for surfboards.

Summary: We LOVED it! First, if you're hesitant to stay here due to it being pet friendly, don't fear...the place is so clean you'll never know! The house is quite spacious, decorated beautifully, kitchen stocked and appliances top notch. My favorite place to sit was in the front porch area. It's great for people & puppy watching, yet private enough where people don't bother you. It's close to the little Pleasure Point town center which has nice stores, places to eat, and a convenience store for anything you need. A 2 minute walk to the end of the street takes you to the most beautiful ocean view where you can watch surfers or take stroll along the walkway with the ocean sounds. Our property managers were so helpful from the moment we booked to when we checked in and after. I wish we stayed longer and will definitely be returning!

Summary: We went to Santa Cruz for the first time to celebrate my husband's birthday. We could not have picked a better location. The Pleasant Point Cottage is walkable to the ocean, coffee shops, and restaurants and well within driving distance to other beautiful destinations.

Summary: My husband and I came for a short little get away and it was instantly easy to relax and enjoy the space. Very clean and tastefully done. We also were glad we could bring our dog with us. A couple things we would have liked was a regular coffee maker and basic condiments on hand. Otherwise a well-stocked kitchen. Thanks!

Summary: Laid back space in great location with easy access to the beach, food and coffee shops. The owners were easy to communicate with, set clear expectations and followed through with the couple requests we had that made our stay exceptional. If you are looking for a place to stay in Santa Cruz and/or Capitola, I highly recommend this space.

Summary: Very likable location in the area close to ocean and great walking views!
