Vacation rentals in Mount Madonna

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cozy cottage. An added bonus not mentioned in the description is the fabulous shower. For a small house, the size, cleanliness, and unlimited hot water of the shower is terrific!

Every detail of this home was incredibly well thought out. There’s truly nothing you’ll need, it’s fully stocked with everything from games for the kids to all the cooking utensils you could want, and the beds are extremely comfortable. The patio and entry garden are absolutely stunning. The decor is perfect; every little detail was considered, and it really shows. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish- what a treat. I’m going to go home and redecorate with a Hawaii theme 😏

Clean and spacious place. Quirky but perfect for us. But if a drive to anyplace except the slough and beach.

Very peaceful and secluded stay. Felt clean and vibrant in the home. Will definitely plan to stay again in the future.

Our stay here was amazing. The view was awesome, location was perfect and it was the perfect place to stay with two little ones. The beds and furniture were all so comfy and the backyard was a great spot to hang out. Being right on the beach was so relaxing, and hearing the waves at night was priceless. We’ll definitely be back.

We really enjoyed our stay here—the house is just as beautiful as the photos and in a great location, super close to the beach. It had everything we needed and felt really cozy. They even provided a baby gate, which was a thoughtful touch. A few things to note for future guests: the interior doors only lock from the outside, so our kiddo could still open them even when “locked.” The curtains weren’t blackout at all, so it stayed pretty bright inside. The gate to the backyard would blow open on windy days, but there were bricks available to help keep it closed. There was also construction two doors down that started around 7:40 a.m. every day, and we did notice some hair on the bathroom ceiling, which was a bit strange. But overall, we had a great time and definitely plan to come back! The home is lovely, in a fantastic spot, and made for a great getaway.

The beach was amazing, especially being able to walk out the door and only take a few steps to get there. The snack shop is limited but had some staples so it was definitely nice to bring some easy meals and we cooked most of them there. My had some basics there that made cooking easier (salt, oil, etc). Our two teenagers enjoyed having their own full bed. Stay here - great deal for a clean space.

I had a good communication with Casey before and during our stay. There were a few things that my group wanted to know and she responded with minimal wait time. The driveway up to the house was steep and curvy which the host explained very well. But not a problem driving up since we arrived with the sun is still up. I don't remember seeing any lights on the driveway which might be a problem driving up at night. Beautiful scenery around the wrap around deck. The house was very spacious for our group of 5 couples. A tray with snacks, coffee and wine awaited us in the kitchen, as well as bottled water in the fridge. I would definitely stay here again and also recommend this house to friends or family if they are in the area. On a side note: it would've been nice if they had some type of games (billiards, ping pong, foosball or arcade games inside the 2 car garage.

Nikki and Ron are incredible hosts with the perfect Santa Cruz cottage! They go above and beyond to ensure that guests are comfortable. This is by far the cleanest Airbnb we have ever stayed in - every room and surface both inside and outside was spotless. We loved the serenity of the cottage, the fenced backyard with lots of very comfortable seating, and that everything we could possibly think of needing in a kitchen or a rental home is provided. Well appointed cottage and comfortable bed & linens & couches. Another bonus is the massive grass + fenced park just a 2 minute walk away for the dogs to run around. We would love to stay here again!
