Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Santa Cruz

This was the second time we stayed in this location, and the space and amenities are luxurious, everything is pristine, and the location is unbeatable (surf was high over the weekend and we enjoyed the sound of crashing waves in the back yard). Logistics and all the other factors are well-oiled as well (key pad entry makes life so easy). I hope we’ll be able to come stay again!

We had a great time staying at Beshoy's place in Marina. The house was clean and looked exactly like in the pictures. Beshoy was very responsive and answered all our questions very promptly.

Julia's place feels like home away from home. I had 6 family guests over to celebrate a family milestone. It was wonderful to have these memories created at Julia's place. The home is spacious. The kitchen was well organized and stocked. The backyard is beautiful. And above all Julia was very responsive. I needed a late check-out, Julia provided clear instructions on how this can be done and everything went smoothly. Best of wishes to her and all the future guests who want to call this place, home away from home.

Sarah’s cottage was perfect for the two of us. Super clean and comfy accommodations with everything we needed for the long weekend. We enjoyed relaxing in the cute backyard to breathe in the fresh ocean air while sipping a glass of wine, or two. Short walk to the harbor and other stores made it easy for us to grab the few items we forgot back home. The chai tea and electric kettle were great surprises to warm us up each morning. We highly recommend Sarah’s cottage and we thank Sarah for providing us with a great place to have a relaxing weekend.

I always choose to stay at Emrehans when I need a place near San Jose. Very beautiful, clean home/yard, great location. Emrehan communicates well and has been very accommodating to me. Very good price for the stay. Would recommend.

Very spacious. Had great time with family

Liz’s place was exactly as described and a lovely stay. We enjoyed walking to the beach every morning and eating out on the deck. Appreciate all the shelving and storage space.

We were 2 adults with 2 teens and a dog. Loved that this home was pet friendly. The house had everything we needed, really loved all the space and light upstairs and view of ocean and sitting on the balcony having our morning coffee and lunch and just chilling and taking in all the beach and nature vibes. House is just as pictured. Really appreciated having 3 full bathrooms for all our family too.

Everything was great! The unit had everything you could possibly need for a trip (stocked bathroom, stocked kitchen, tons of extra towels and blankets). The neighborhood was also very quiet, which was great because we're light sleepers. I would definitely recommend this spot and would stay again.

It was a lovely stay! Everything went smoothly and all amenities were ready for use and also easy to use. The property is beautiful and close to lots of things to do while being surrounded by nature. The hosts were responsive and helpful, easy to work with. I was not expecting how close the neighbors would be, but that really didn't impact how nice of a time we had at all. A sweet pup came by a few times and that was really fun. Overall a fantastic time!

a very nice apartment in a new and quiet area! We used the barbecue area and had a great time! Whenever we are in the area, we will rent again

Feng’s home was lovely and very spacious! We had a group of 8 guests staying and it could accommodate a larger group very well! Thank you for a lovely accommodation, Feng!

Maria and David are phenomenal hosts! The accommodations were absolutely perfect for my pup and I! You can truly tell that so much thought and care was put into the cabana and it is so lovely and cozy. I highly recommend!!

We went to San Jose on business trip and rented this place out. It exceeded our expectations, everything was great. We arrived at the area couple of hours early and the host was kind enough to let us check in early. I would highly recommend everyone to stay here. I will definitely be back soon.

Serene is the perfect word to describe this property. It was refreshing and quiet. We would love to come back

We loved our stay here. The outdoor space was incredible! Allison was very pleasant and responsive. We definitely recommend this home.

Vic and his team were incredibly responsive and attentive to all my questions. They went above and beyond by proactively reaching out and not only providing what we needed but exceeding our expectations. As first-time travelers with a newborn, we were impressed with the thoughtful extras they offered, including a travel crib, toys, bouncer, and high chair. The level of care and service made it truly worth every penny. Highly recommend!

Such kind hosts and a cute place. A new mattress would have better for these old bones, even a blow up one, but I was a sweet spot! Thank you!!

Location was very quiet and peaceful. The room is clean and well organized. The hospitality of host was great. If I have a next chance, I want to stay again.

This guest suite was perfect, checking in and out was smooth and easy and our time there was very comfortable and private. Exceeded our expectations and made our trip to San Jose so much better!

April and her team are great! I’d love to stay here again!

Ms. Jane was a great host. The space was a perfect size and had a personal entrance for guest. Also Ms. Jane communicated with and responded with in the hour of our message. The location was ideal for us. We had easy access to Santa Cuz, San Fran, Monterey and Big Sur. We would recommend our own family and friends.

Had a wonderful stay! Janet’s home was very peaceful and relaxing. Literally had anything we could need during our stay. She also let us check out at 1 so we could go on one last adventure without being in a rush! I would definitely recommend her place, & stay there again sometime!!

Very warm and accommodating hosts. They made our stay very pleasant. I appreciated the cleanliness and comfortable beds.
