Check in was super smooth and Winnie gave us all the information we needed well in advance! The place is awesome and perfect for a small family. The beach gear was a huge plus and the location could not be beat! Would recommend for anyone staying in Aptos! We’ll definitely be back ourselves

Amazing Getaway Steps to the Beach

Couldn’t have asked for a better stay! The hosts were top notch, the location was awesome and the beach house was cozy and comfortable! Bonus, games, books, beach gear, etc the place was fully stocked with extra touches by the hosts! I’d highly recommend!

Great location, responsive host

Winie was such a gracious and helpful host! We brought our two dogs to visit my wife's family in Aptos, and had a great stay. The space is lovely and in an absolutely fantastic location just a short walk from the beach in Rio. Despite being so close to the beach (as well as Pixie's Deli and Venus), the neighborhood itself is very quiet at night. We're so happy to know that we have somewhere to stay the next time we want to bring our dogs to Aptos!

Close to beach, good food nearby

This location is very close (0.2miles) from the beach and a couple restaurants (we recommend Venus, which has a dog friendly patio). We were able to drive around town to a couple other places as well. The property was clean and exactly as described. The property owner checked in with us to make sure everything was going alright and we didn't need anything. Overall a very peaceful and fun experience. We would recommend this place to others.

Our family of four stayed here for the weekend in mid-August. The mild temperatures were a welcome respite from the Sacramento heat! The house was clean, well stocked, and tastefully decorated. Our kids slept on the fold-out in the living room and the small bed in the loft just fine. The wi-fi was solid, which is nice because we had spotty reception in town. The town is right on the beach, and the house is a 3-minute walk to a couple restaurants and the beach. Aptos is very small, cute and quiet, and only 15 minutes from Santa Cruz. We would stay here again and highly recommend it for small families with older children due to the loft and stairs.

Cozy comfort with easy access to beach and food.

Clean and comfortable with a bonus loft! Winnie has thought of everything in the well stocked kitchen and even a bed and chew toy for the dog to enjoy! We felt so welcome here! The beds were comfortable , bathroom gorgeous, and fireplace heaters a cozy touch! The house is tucked into an amazingly quiet street next to a busy beach park. You can plan to cook or not, as there’s a nice restaurant, coffee and a convenience store nearby. No need to take the car anywhere! We took long walks in both directions down the beach and found nearly empty beaches. The water and waves are beautiful at Rio Del Mar! Sunsets a bonus! We would love to return to this spot - it’s a real find!
