Holiday rentals with a patio in Rio del Mar

This was a very nice apartment in a quiet, well-maintained complex. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had the basics we needed. I would definitely stay here again!

I felt right at home. It was nice to get away for my daughter’s graduation from UCSC. The drive to the graduation wasn’t bad at all. I loved being near the water and was able to walk to the cliff side for a beautiful sunset view. I’ll definitely stay here again.

Beautiful newly decorated unit. Very clean many nice details

We stayed at the apartment while our house was getting remodeled. The location is great—walking distance to shops and restaurants. The bed was comfortable, and the patio was a great addition. The first-floor location and the large trees make the apartment cooler, but also a little dark. Overall, we had a good stay, and Cosme has been very responsive and flexible with our change of plans!

Great communication from airbnb host. I stay here quite frequently, always very clean. Parking always available, washer and dryer available. Internet available. Definitely recommend. 5 stars

Lawrence is an amazing host! The place was as described, so no complaints in either categories during my stay! Host is super fast to reply and absolutely happy to accommodate any one off request which has made my trip so comfortable. Thank you for the hospitality, Lawrence! More than happy to stay in the unit again I. The future! Thanks! -Jan

Cute and clean in-law apartment located in a quaint and quiet neighborhood with walking distance to local hot spots. The host was accommodating and easy to communicate with. She responded quickly when questions arose. I would recommend this place for a great stay in Santa Cruz!

Well lite, Door entrance, easy access along with detailed, easy to follow instructions for entering. Comfortable, safe surroundings- Unit is comfortable, bathroom super clean- comfortable bed. This is my second visit and host as responsive as the first visit. Thank you, Linda

As mentioned by others, the place is super comfortable, has a lot of amenities and is super close to the boardwalk and the downtown area. However, what really stood out to us was the host’s hospitality. They were super accommodating when we mentioned we’d be getting to Santa Cruz a little early and if we could use the bikes to go cruise around in the meantime. We only stayed for one night, but were able to enjoy a full day of fun because of that. We rode to Brommer park, played pickleball, went back to check in, headed out to eat, walked around and then went back to enjoy the spa and ping pong table. The whole house was spacious and the beds were super comfortable. Definitely recommend David’s place.

We were impressed by how clean the house was. It was a great location to walk to some restaurants and the coast. We parked one van street side and one van in the driveway as it was really tight to get out of the car on one area of the drive. There were chairs, bikes, and beach towels available. We didn’t get a chance to use the hot tub or fire pit. Wish we had more time there. We had one issue but Veronica was quick to reply and resolve it. We would stay again!

Kylie’s place was a great and comfortable stay. I look forward to staying there again

Omg, Anton’s place was just perfect! We could never get enough of his beautiful home and the incredible view! Wow! Everyday, I would just sit outside and stare at it! It was wonderful being so close to nature! During our stay, we saw deer, turkey, cows right in our backyard! Amazing! It is so close to nature and yet, the location is so central and is very close to everything! It’s like a little paradise in the heart of the city! And the house was so complete, we couldn’t have asked for anything more! There was even a newly installed jacuzzi that Anton would let us use! Anton is a very generous and caring host! And he was always just a call away! My husband told me we should always stay at Anton’s when we are in San Jose😊 we love the place!

We were amazed at how peaceful and retreat-like Chris's place was... the full panel of windows looking out onto magnificent redwoods (pretty sure) was a delight. The neighborhood was quiet, super easy to park in front, easy access with coded entry. Fancy shower with 3 choices (rain, hand held etc), controls for temp in each room so me and my hubby could at times be at our very different temp preferences. My husband's favorite part was going out on the deck with his morning coffee, facing a forested canyon, and having time to write and think. One other important note... although we felt "away and peaceful", we were MUCH closer to everything than we thought. Just 10 min to beach, 15 to downtown or UCSC campus, and 20-25 to Henry Cowell State Redwoods. It is an ideal location, and a really great price, considering you would pay the same for a nicer hotel, without the lovely view, private deck, kitchen, etc. We will be back! ps, Chris was very responsive to my questions too!

It was a great location and a great house. Real homey feeling and the backyard was awesome! Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful location and beautiful home. Nice kitchen, living room, very spacious. The private parking spot was a fantastic bonus so close to the village.

Fabulous place. Would highly recommend to everyone. Dominique provides everything you could need and is always on hand to answer questions. The place is gorgeous and perfectly located. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Santa Cruz!

I had a wonderful stay! The place was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The hosts were incredibly kind and responsive, making sure I had everything I needed for a comfortable visit. You can really tell they care about their guests and take pride in providing a great experience. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-managed place to stay. Thank you for everything!

This was a fantastic place to stay!! The only odd aspect was an 8:00 pm curfew. Otherwise, it was very clean, well managed and comfortable. The view is amazing and the walk to the beach is 💯

Our favorite part was the walk to the expansive beach. The resort is very nice, and the condo was great.

We had a wonderful stay at this condo. It’s absolutely perfect and has everything you could possibly need. We were especially delighted to find chopsticks, which totally made our day since we were planning to have ramen and thought we’d have to use forks! The view from the condo is stunning, like something out of a movie, and it was such a treat to have easy access to the beach. Watching the sunset was one of the highlights of our trip. The host was very responsive and provided clear, helpful instructions for everything, from check-in and check-out to using the washer. The check-in process with the gate attendant was smooth and made us feel extra secure. Everything was super clean and thoughtfully prepared. We stayed at several Airbnbs along Route 1, and this one was undoubtedly the best. Highly recommend!

Great condo with an excellent view! Looking forward to visiting again soon!

Nice and clean airbnb. It was an amazing stay by the beach. Highly recommend.

David’s place was absolutely perfect. The views are amazing, the place is beautiful and well equipped, the walk to the beach is so pretty, hanging out at the beach was so fun, and everything about the seascape area was adorable. We came up to celebrate our son’s graduation and staying at David’s place was like icing on the cake. Our stay couldn’t have been better.

The location of the condo was superb. The few minute walk to the beach was so convenient and the view was breathtaking. Everything was clean inside and the parking garage was directly around the corner. I would come here again.
