Wonderful Santa Cruz Getaway
We spent a month at West Cliff Hideaway. The location is fantastic - 2 blocks from the ocean in a lovely neighborhood. We were able to walk to the Pier and Boardwalk from our front door every day. Seeing the waves and surfers never grew old. The host, Robin lives in the main house and was always available for anything we needed. We rarely saw her so we always felt like we had privacy. The apartment is above a large garage behind the house and is accessed by a private entrance and a flight of stairs. Very comfortable and a fully stocked kitchen made for a perfect stay. Thank you Robin for sharing your home in such a beautiful location!

Warm and inviting rental in a fantastic location!
A definite winnner and a rental to which we’re looking forward to returning. Cozy without being cramped, and in a perfect location on the West Side, easy walk to Natural Bridges.

Our family of three had a great stay at West Cliff Hideaway! Just the right size - comfortable, nicely appointed and close to West Cliff Drive and all of the sites of Santa Cruz. Bonus was getting to know the terrific owners! We highly recommend this rental.

Relaxing Getaway
This is a beautiful location that is a perfect setup as a home away from home. The location is amazing and very close to so many beautiful walks and time to unwind and relax near the water. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and having a full kitchen at our use. Great place for a small family to visit and we would definitely return to this location!

Very nice time!
I had a great time staying at West Cliff Hideaway. The unit was clean and well-maintained, easy walking distance to the ocean. Parking was easy and there was a New Leaf (kind of a local Whole Foods) nearby where there were lots of good grocery options. It's a great launching station for adventures around the coast.

Loved this place!
If you are looking for a comfortable, clean, peaceful, well equipped, well organized apartment close to the ocean, good restaurants and shopping in the quiet part of Santa Cruz, look no further - you have found it. Our family of four, including two young adult children, was very happy with Robin's "hideaway" during our recent four night stay. Highly recommended!!

Awesome family getaway
We had a great time in Santa Cruz thanks to Robin and Bill's hospitality and clean and comfortable place. It is close to the beach in a lovely neighborhood. It's small but fully loaded with everything you need as a couple or small family. My family and I enjoyed walking to the beach and the boardwalk is a short drive away. We hope to come back and enjoy it again in the future.

Fantastic Host, Property and Location
Our business reserved this property for 3 months for a visiting scientist and they raved about Robin and her property. She was communicative, attentive, and a terrific host that went above and beyond. We will definitely reserve this spot again for long-term stays or business visits. Thanks Robin!

What a wonderful accommodation. It is very cozy and welcoming. Everything that you need for cooking or going to the beach is there. I love having the barbecue to grill our steaks. There were lots of bath towels too! Just a wonderful place.

Great Location and Host
This property was very comfortable and exactly as advertised. Robin was very helpful and accommodating. The location is superb. You can hear the crashing of the waves and the barking of the seals from the ocean a few blocked away. We walked and biked everywhere and found the Westside wineries and coffee shops great.

West Cliff Hideaway
Great vacation rental! West Cliff Hideaway is an excellent place to stay for a week. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, yet just a couple blocks from the ocean and West Cliff Drive. Many restaurants and winery tasting rooms are close by. The apartment is charming with all the little extras that make such a difference. I'd certainly recommend it highly.

Close to everything and entirely accommodating.
Our family came here on our spring break to enjoy sunshine and the outdoors. It was the perfect place because of its proximity to the ocean, Wilder Ranch, Natural Bridges State Beach, UCSC arboretum, and Seymour Marine Discovery Center. We even spent a day at the Monterrey Aquarium. The accommodations were also amazing. Clean, comfortable and filled with everything we needed. A home away from home for our small family of 3.

Lovely home in perfect location
Loved to stay at Robin’s property. The flat is spotlessly clean in a quiet neighbourhood. It’s equipped with all you need for your vacation. Robin is a very kind and helpful host. I would recommend to stay at this little gem of a place to any of my friends and would rent it again myself any time. Thank you, Robin, for having us!

Wonderful Coastal Home
A wonderful weekend getaway in Santa Cruz. The location is just a short walk to beautiful coast to watch surfers. The kids loved playing in the ocean and visiting the beach boardwalk. All the reviews are exactly as we found property- quiet, clean, comfortable. There really is no detail that owner has left out in thinking of guests visiting the area. Thanks!

The Perfect Hideaway
This was a wonderful place for us. We are a retired couple and being able to walk 2 blocks to the beautiful Santa Cruz Beach was a huge plus. Restaurants, groceries and shops are within easy driving distance. As for the hideaway....it is absolutely perfect! The little touches Robin provides truly helps to make it feel like your home away from home. We highly recommend this getaway!
