This is one of the best stays I’ve ever experienced! The house is really wonderful and the location is perfect. You have everything you need to feel right at home, and even more. The place is stocked with anything you could possibly need or want to make your stay super enjoyable. The host is very responsive and the check in and checkout instructions were very clear. I’ll definitely be back! I can’t say enough good things about the host or the home.

To start with, Lisa was a fantastic host. She answered all questions promptly, she was friendly and helpful. The home was gorgeous and very well appointed. The beds were comfortable as well. There was everything there we could've needed for our stay from board games to beach towels & beach gear, she thought of everything. Though it didn't apply to us, there were even things provided to make the stay comfortable for families with infants and small children. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a getaway to the coast with family and friends. We were all very pleased!

This place was amazing! We made memories to last forever. Lisa at Bay Stays was the best host we’ve ever had. She responded almost immediately which was really appreciative. So polite and patient. This trip was very important. I’m raising my nephew (13) since he lost both parents recently. Coming from Texas, Santa Cruz is a place full of beautiful memories for him being raised there his first 8 years of life growing up. Thank you to the owners and Bay Stays for opening your home to us and allowing us to have this experience.

I had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful home during my visit to Santa Cruz. I must say, it was quite an experience that exceeded my expectations in every way. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed and made to feel right at home.
The house was tastefully furnished, beautifully decorated, and clean. Every amenity I could have wished for was provided, from a fully equipped kitchen to plush bedding and a cozy living area. My family enjoyed the time during the visit.
Thank you for creating such a memorable and delightful stay!
