Absolutely Fabulous!
1. First things first, Teresa and Jule’s home was immaculate. Loved all of the art and the loft for the kids. Our daughter lived on the bean bag. 2. The home is so close to the beach you can hear and smell it. It’s amazing place to walk the dogs early in the morning. The kids loved it and we spent a lot of time just beachcombing and taking in the scenery. 3. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly. We met some truly wonderful people. Aptos is also set easy to navigate and you can get everything you need. Santa Cruz is just a short ride away! 4. Teresa and Jules are warm and welcoming. We had no issues getting in touch with them and they truly take pride in this home. The only thing to keep in mind is home entrance is on the second floor. We loved staying here and will be back!! Thank you Teresa and Jules for a wonderful get away!

Perfect!
Once I found this place, I immediately booked it for me and my two granddaughters for their spring break. It was exactly what we were looking for and was so pleased it matched the description perfectly. Walking distance to the beach was close enough for the 4 year old. Two restaurants also within walking distance and a small market! The home was beautifully decorated, had enough games and toys to keep everyone busy. The loft area will win over kids of all ages. Would definitely book again!
