I was in Aptos for 7 nights (Sunday afternoon through Sunday morning), and enjoyed staying here. I appreciated having a fully functional kitchen and stable wifi, which made it easy to meet my work needs (half days in US/Eastern mornings) while allowing me to maximize my visiting time with elderly relatives in the area. Great location, if a little difficult to find the first time.

We had a fantastic stay! Arriving in the evening, we were warmly welcomed by the host, who went above and beyond to provide clear directions, making our check-in seamless. The location is perfect—central and convenient for exploring the area. The outdoor space was a highlight, offering a comfortable and quiet spot ideal for my virtual business meeting. The cozy kitchen was well-equipped with a great selection of teas, coffee, and pantry basics, which added a thoughtful touch to our stay. We truly loved every moment and can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!

Super stay, lovely host in Aptos

Julie was a wonderful host for this charming place that’s much more than a room with a separate kitchen nook. Minutes away from the beach, coffee, restaurants and more. Quiets as well!

Charming is right! Julie's studio is delightful and made the perfect base for my exploration of Santa Cruz County and Monterey Bay. The location is Heavenly, with resident hummingbirds and butterflies and views out over the water, and everything I could have wanted was provided, down to a caraffe of filtered water in the fridge. Julie is an extremely giving and generous host and her love of the area is infectious. I have nothing but good things to say, I definitely recommend staying here if you have the chance!

The place was more spacious than expected from the ad. There is a separate kitchen, which had everything we needed, and a generous supply of food items. The location was perfectly situated with just a short drive to beaches and the gorgeous Nisene Marks Forest. Shopping and ample restaurants are nearby. The family lives upstairs and there was hardly any noticeable noise. We had all the privacy we needed. Host was very helpful and communicative. Highly recommend!

A peaceful place to stay with a thoughtful hostess

Julie was so kind and paid attention to every single detail. She checked in with us to suggest places we would enjoy going to and see that we had everything we needed. It was such a relaxing and luxurious stay. The studio is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. I appreciated that there was a nice guestbook in the room with detailed instructions on check-in/check-out, amenities, and info about local spots to check out and how far they are from the studio.This place is a total gem and we would definitely stay here again.

Week Long Stay

Julie’s place was just what we needed for a short term place in Aptos! Full kitchen with all the utensils and cookware. She made sure we had condiments, milk, coffee and fresh parsley prior to our arrival which was very helpful! We couldn’t recommend Julie’s space enough! The daily greetings from the puppo were a plus! :)

Cozy Room in Quiet Neighborhood

I was very happy to have found this property. It was convenient to Capitola where I had a project to complete and also to outdoor activities I wanted to do in the Santa Cruz-Captiola-Soquel-Aptos area: hiking in Nisene Marks State Park and other parks, and walks along the Santa Cruz & Soquel cove beaches. Comfortable accommodations, responsive host, well-equipped kitchen, thoughtful amenities, excellent communication, and a relaxing atmosphere. :)
