A Perfect Stay
We loved our stay. The cottage was literally steps to W. Cliff Drive with its trail along the ocean cliffs on the Westside of Santa Cruz. It was easy to see why the owner had won awards for restoration of the Carriage House. It was both beautiful and so thoughtfully done. Every day we noticed new details that were thematic, considerate or just pretty. Those little "surprises" were themselves a pleasure. Everything from the "horse" theme to the detail of the hardware chosen to the beach glass appearance of the sconces to the fact that every pan or utensil I wanted for the cooking I did I was able to find. It was really perfect.One last thought. The bed was so comfortable. The older I get the more leery I am of sleeping anywhere other than my own bed. I slept VERY well at the cottage. I'm sure the sounds of the ocean enhanced that great mattress.

Best Host Ever!
She was so amazing! We were there for a race of mine and had forgotten some things and she was so quick to offer help. It was so sweet and helped reduce my stress so I could focus on the race. Perfect location and space. So cute and comfy bed, which was much needed! I could go on but I think I’ve made my point. If I come back to do this race again, I will definitely want to stay here.

Magical Stay in Historic Carriage House
My husband & I & our dog, Lottie, just returned from a wonderful four night stay at this wonderful cottage. It is a cozy nest. This was the perfect place for a romantic get-away. Khristina has lovingly converted an old carriage house on her historic property into a guest cottage. I love to cook! The kitchen is fantastic with a gorgeous vintage style gas stove/oven. To fit the style of her cottage, she has an amazing Smeg retro-style refrigerator. There were plenty of cooking supplies/utensils. Khristina is a warm, kind wonderful host! She is so friendly & knows so much about her neighborhood. She even brought us an unexpected bottle of amazing wine. I was an enologist/assistant winemaker before I retired & I know how special this wine was...plus we drank it & it was outstanding. I highly recommend this amazing property. Yay!

Just dreamy
The perfect place to get away from it all. The location on West Cliff Drive is amazing, with all the scenery, wildlife, and people watching you could ever want. But the Carriage House itself feels entirely serene and quiet. On the second floor, you can get a peep of the bay and the wharf, birdwatch, appreciate the tree tops, and just barely hear the sea lions barking. The furnishings are comfortable and beautiful. And the bathroom omg the bathroom. My husband and I are now discussing how we can refurbish our bathroom to be more like this one. We hope to be back soon!

Santa Cruz Getaway
My husband and I stole away an extended weekend to celebrate our Anniversary. This beautiful, relaxing, and stunning carriage house is located north of the boardwalk and south of the surf museum and surfers coves. We spent the entire time walking leisurely along the promenade, loving every moment, preparing food from the sweet open kitchen. The place is so cute with outstanding details that felt so completely home and personal. We cannot wait to return ASAP.

Santa Cruz Gem
My wife and I enjoyed a fantastic four night stay with our little dog as part of our 20 year wedding anniversary. The Carriage House is tastefully decorated, well appointed, cozy and comfortable. A modern vintage look and feel. We appreciated all those touches in such an ideal and convenient location. Great neighborhood, walk to beaches, surfing and wharf views and a short drive to other interests. A keen ear can hear the surf and call of the sealions. Santa Cruz is very dog friendly, he thoroughly enjoyed himself, going everywhere we went. We hope to return to continue our adventures. Thanks for everything. Best, John & Andrea

A Fabulous Hidden Gem!
Khristina's carriage house is a perfect place to stay if you're looking for relaxed quiet elegance in an intimate setting. It's ideal location makes walking to the beach, Boardwalk, downtown Santa Cruz or just strolling along West Cliff Dr perfect any time of year. Khristina is a wonderful host and makes you feel like family the moment you arrive. My wife and I are already planning our next visit... it's just that good!

The carriage house is in a great location in a nice neighborhood. It's an ideal place for walking to the wharf or along West Cliff Drive. Khristina is very responsive and pleasant. The carriage house is just as it looks in the photos, very comfortable and charming. I had a very nice vacation here.

Delightful
Our stay in the carriage house was all we hoped it would be and more. It was beautifully restored with great attention to detail. The room was open, bright, airy and a delight to be in. It is a 30 second to the ocean. Khristina was welcoming and gave us history on the carriage house that was really interesting. We loved everything about our stay here and look forward to coming back!!

Inviting Respite
This well hidden carriage house was restored beautifully. We so enjoyed our stay! The kitchen was well stocked and functional, but it still had an historic look. For a restoration, the bathroom was exquisite. The bed was super comfortable. We had been in a recent car accident, so this was very important for our old-age aches and pains. We loved our walks with our dog over looking the ocean. We so loved that our elder dog was welcomed. Khristina connected well with us and is an amazing host. We hope to return.

Great Stay In A Beautiful Place
This was the ideal location for a quiet yet fun weekend getaway. The space is very well maintained and paced with beautiful details. When we were ready to head out and enjoy Santa Cruz, it was a very short walk to the boardwalk, a short drive to downtown SC. The hosts were friendly, and very responsive. I’d love to stay for another weekend, and I would recommend the same to my friends!

Terry and Kevin's excellent vacation!
Our week at the carriage house was dreamy, almost beyond words...but seeing that this a review, I'll do my best. The grounds are jaw dropping, and when we opened the door to our abode we jumped for joy. My husband and I really really care about where we stay...we're not "dump your suitcase and hit the streets" folks. The carriage house exceeded our expectations in every way. So very peaceful and comfortable, and don't get me started about the wondrous plank floors! The amenities were thoughtful and welcomed, and starting my day with a cup of great coffee on the balcony, with the wharf in view, has spoiled me for some time to come. The bathroom was spacious and spotless and lovely, the fireplace upped the cozy factor, and the bed was just right. (The sliding barn door is a nice touch, offering privacy and napping options!) The kitchen was just right too...good if you want to cook up a storm or just keep it simple. (Cute mugs, bowls, and plates too, if that's your thing...charming!) We hung out around the dining table a lot, visiting with family and playing cribbage! And the upholstered arm chairs are something I am seriously coveting! Seriously though, I tend to read reviews from people I don't know, with a grain of salt. That said, we have traveled for a living and have traveled a lot. This carriage house is a no brainer choice. I would, hands down recommend staying here, especially for a couple looking for a romantic and relaxing getaway in Santa Cruz. Sincerely, Terry and Kevin
