Description:Make yourself at home in a private detached unit studio in centrally located bright, sunny Santa Cruz Banana Belt. A charming escape destination right in the middle of Santa Cruz. Quickly accessed from the main highway running through town. A mere 5 minutes from beaches, (closest to Seabright Beach), surfing, Boardwalk, Yacht Harbor, Municipal Wharf, West Cliff Drive, Downtown shopping. Walking distance to organic foods market, fine dining, bus stops, banks/ATM, groceries, post office, coffee shops, gym, theater, etc.. 10 minute drive to State Parks, and Santa Cruz's own Mystery Spot. Queen size bed, plus twin sleeper couch for kids/additional guests. Bathroom with shower. fresh towels, kitchenette with dishes and utensils, oven/stove, microwave, coffeemaker (we provide the coffee), refrigerator/freezer. Washer/dryer for laundry. HDTV. Private patio inside own fenced yard with lush mini black bamboo forest. Own designated private off-street parking space. Please note: **** THERE IS NO WIFI, INTERNET, OR CABLE TV ****(just making sure everybody saw that)! If this is a critical component of your vacation, then my apartment probably isn't the one to choose. But among the endless local spots here in town that provide it, The Bagelry, at 1636 Seabright Ave. - approx. 3 minutes drive from the studio - offers free wifi. Helpful hint: read my Guidebook for a few more free wifi spots. Subject to increased nightly price on certain high demand dates, and seasonal rate changes - check listing calendar as varying rates are always posted in advance. At this time, I'm sorry to report that I can no longer allow pets to stay at my rental. :( REGARDING DIRECTIONS TO MY RENTAL, PLEASE READ One of the best features of my studio is that it is a separate, detached, and very private unit from the main house on the property, with its own separate private parking space, fenced yard, and it's own, separate entrance. For these reasons, I give booked guests SIMPLE, exact directions on how to reach the studio, and I meet them there to check in. The studio has the same address as the front house, but is at the rear of the property and is accessed by an alley which runs parallel the full length of Pacheco Ave.. I always provide exact directions via email after bookings, SO PLEASE FOLLOW THEM AND MEET ME THERE, NOT AT THE MAIN HOUSE, (simply because if I am awaiting your arrival at your actual destination, I will not hear you knocking on the door of a different house). Again, if you overlook what's described here and just follow your GPS, you will end up at the wrong place. Thanks and happy travels!

Description:Come experience a peaceful and quiet get-a-way above the fog line in the Aptos mountains with a million dollar view! The cottage overlooks an old apple orchard that is surrounded by majestic redwood trees. Relax on a large private deck overlooking the peaceful valley and soak in the sunshine. Lay around by the pool or swim in a beautiful setting. Take a walk along the quiet country road. Whatever you choose to do during your stay, there is something about this peaceful little haven that will sooth your senses. Apple Orchard Cottage is located 5 miles from the historic and quaint little town of Aptos, CA. It is a 15 minute drive from Aptos Village of which 2 miles wind through a lush canopy of trees on a paved, one lane private road. It is 15 minutes from town and the beach. Aptos has great restaurants, a theater, shopping, coffee shops, Safeway and CVS as well as a natural food store. Aptos is centrally located to Santa Cruz and Monterey. The cottage is single level and has close and easy access from parking. The Apple Orchard Cottage, also referred to lovingly as “The Granny Unit”, shares property with our home but has plenty of privacy. Amenities: Kitchen (full and functional): Gas stove/oven, microwave refrigerator- full size coffee pot and coffee bean grinder toaster. The kitchen is also stocked with an assortment of basic condiments—olive oil, vinegar, sugar, salt 100% cotton 500 thread count sheets full mattress encasement from “Protect A Bed” the ultimate in bedbug and dust mite protection technology. The comforter is either in a cotton duvet cover (or has a cotton sheet over the top) which is washed after each guest. Pillows are double cased too. Bathroom: Large tiled shower, soap, shampoo and conditioner hair dryer Living room: Sofa love seat and day bed with trundle. 30 HD Flat Screen TV with DVD player. TV may come in sporadically but cannot be counted on. Deck-Private: The deck wraps around the front and side of the cottage and has a stunning view. There is a table and chairs under a canopy that allows filtered sun. Also 2 Zero Gravity lounge chairs to relax in. Smoking is NOT permitted INSIDE the cottage however, it is allowed OUTSIDE on the deck, away from the cottage windows. The swimming pool on premises is available for use. The water temperature varies throughout the year as it is SUN HEATED ONLY. It reaches 80 degrees in the summer as it has full sun exposure all day! In the off seasons or when there is no sun, it can be chilly and enjoyed by polar bears. Maybe someday we will have it heated year round. The pool is a shared area but is not used very often, so don't be surprised if you seem to have it all to yourself! This is paradise for the person who loves wildlife, as in nature not partying. Deer abound. Bobcats are frequently seen wondering the property. Wild turkeys come and go. Bunnies frolic around the property most the day. Birds are abundant. Swallows arrive in April, leave in July. About 10 hummingbirds live here year round. We have a quiet and friendly dog named Riley that wanders the property, but he will not be able to get into your private area. We cherish the quiet and solitude. The Apple Orchard Cottage is truly a rare and peaceful get-away from the hustle and bustle of life. The Cottage is in a country and rural setting but has all amenities needed for comfort, relaxation and enjoyment. Your hosts are near enough should you need anything, yet far enough to ensure your privacy. Pets are allowed by special permission. They must be trained, housebroken, no fleas and not allowed on the furniture or left in the cottage alone. Cell phone service is sporadic at best with all services but Verizon. Verizon works great most (98%) of the time. There is no land line phone in the cottage. Wi-Fi wireless can be accessed from the cottage and sometimes from the pool area. The Wi-Fi service accommodates BASIC internet usage only, and is NOT intended for streaming, gaming or any other high bandwidth usage. As an added value to our Cottage Guests, we are providing at no additional cost to you...drum roll please....2 all day guest passes to the Monterey Bay Aquarium! You can go all day or just drop in for a couple hours. The aquarium is about a 45 minute drive south on Highway 1. Just let us know if you would like to use the passes and for what day(s) and they will be provided. Enjoy!

Description:Welcome to Beach Nutz, our elegantly funky and fun vacation home in the very special Rio del Mar beach community, part of the delightful old town of Aptos. To discover Rio del Mar is to discover something that seems as if it could only exist in fiction or a movie - Big Fish? Pleasantville? Yellow Submarine? -bits of these come to mind but there is something sublime about Rio del Mar. It 's easy, everything you need: beach, esplanade, best coffee shop, excellent restaurant, great deli/lunch place all less than 150 paces. Excellent bird and people watching. It has charm but not that dripping-cutsey-congested-kind we 're more mid-twentieth century retro. Yet there 's a feeling of timelessness bestowed by the ancient giant palms along the esplanade, and cyprus all around the cliffs. And we 're relaxed, friendly, and full of character(s). The busiest season is summer Californians have been escaping the heat here for years-over 150, the history is rich and so are the sights, but when it 's time for sunset you 'll want to retreat to the quiet and peaceful charm of Rio del Mar and to the roof garden atop Beach Nutz for a 360 degree view of sun dropping behind Capitola, and twilight blanketing all of our cliffs, canyon, beach and surf, flats and creek, and have a last evening look south to Carmel and north to Pleasure Point and Santa Cruz.
