Bed and breakfast holiday rentals in Santa Cruz County

Delia’s place is beautiful and perfect for a retreat, her garden is so peaceful and private. I felt right at home and did not want to leave. I stayed the whole time and remade my plans because I found the silence I was looking for. My kitties were welcome and they also loved the stay. Thank you so much Delia.

Shari’s sea otter cottage was a wonderful way for my family and I to spend our Spring Break. From the moment we walked in, it felt like home (especially the plate of homemade cookies my 8 year old immediately devoured!). In all seriousness, the house is wonderful. From the hot tub and a short walk to the beach, we will definitely come back. Thanks again!

Super peaceful stay. The space was very cozy. We would absolutely recommend this spot to anyone who loves trains and or redwoods. We also got to say hello to some very friendly dogs and a very sweet cat.

Absolutely lovely! The hosts were welcoming and the room was clean with everything we could have needed. It was a short walk to the boardwalk, the wharf, a bowling alley, and the 'casino'. The garden is beautiful and I loved learning about the history of the house. Adriana was very cute with the breakfast and making sure we were comfortable. I love that it is an actual BnB with the opportunity to chat with fellow travelers! I would love to visit again.

Adriana and Constantin were great hosts. Adriana went out of her way to ensure we had everything we needed and we’re constantly fed with snacks. Breakfast was great! I stayed at this location for the Ironman and it was close to the pier and depot park. Everything was walkable. I would recommend for this place for future athletes or just a nice B&B getaway!

Adriana was the perfect hostess! This property is an easy walk to the Santa Cruz Wharf. My son completes the half triathlon yesterday. We had a great stay.

I was possibly the worst guest ever- booking last minute not communicating properly then turning up four hours early. All my own fault. Eden and Craig took it all in their stride, welcomed me and were full of useful information and recommendations. They describe the place accurately- it’s beautiful and hand crafted- i loved it- the location is magical. if you are looking for hotel style accommodation in a place that looks like everywhere else then you are better off booking a holiday inn or similar. I have used Airbnb for a decade across 20 countries now. This stay embodied the magic of Airbnb. If you want to stay with a creative and hospitable people for an unforgettable few nights in stunning romantic surroundings - then this is for you. It fed my soul. I’ll never forget it. I can’t offer higher praise. Thank you. 🙏

Cliff house is a cozy, peaceful place to be. We came for our son's graduation and stayed a week, and Adriana and Constantine were lovely, kind hosts, with many stories to tell. Breakfast, conversation, beautiful garden and porch for relaxing, and a fantastic location. We hope to stay there again.

This is an excellent find. This was clearly a BnB before AirBnB's were a thing. Location was secluded, but close to a main road/fwy. Beautiful gardens and grounds. Peaceful music playing inside and outside the facility. Wonderful room with oversized tub in the Morning Glory suite. Very responsive hosts. And served actual breakfast (! which can be a rarity), that was a tasty, carefully prepared mix of protein and vegetables and/or sweets in delightful combinations. This came with an assortment of teas and coffee. Very highly recommend this place-definitely want to come back sometime!

Amazing B&B! The breakfast was absolutely delicious and the room was perfectly clean/tidy. We really loved our stay and miss petting Chanko the pig already! Would absolutely recommend staying here, the location was super easy to find and convenient for exploring Santa Cruz and Capitola.

Our stay at Sand Rick Farm was exactly what we were looking for in a quiet anniversary vacation. It rained the entire time we there but that really was not a problem because of the ease that Jens place gave us. We walked around the property in the rain, enjoyed the sun room surrounded by foliage, had delicious breakfasts at the communal table, and my favorite part, lavished in the tub. We had two amazing meals nearby following Jen’s recommendations, Shadowbrook restaurant with a fun way to get there and Persephone nearby. We also loved the nearby rec going to the Niesen Redwood Forest which was so enchanting-even in drizzling rain! This is a thoughtfully run place that I would recommend to anyone celebrating something or looking for a beautiful venue to be wed. I hope to be back again!

Sand rock farm was the perfect getaway! So beautiful and peaceful ~ we woke up early to watch the sunrise and got to listen to the birds start their day. The property is gorgeous and the room was so sweet. The breakfast was delicious and the chef was incredibly kind and warm. Jen had some great recommendations when we went out to town - she was incredibly sweet and thoughtful. Definitely will be coming back!
