Boardwalk View Villa In Santa Cruz

Welcome to “Boardwalk View Villa” in Santa Cruz! The Beach Hill area is the oldest neighborhood in Santa Cruz. Located across from the historic Cliff Crest Inn (built in 1887) – this neighborhood was once called “Cottage-City” in the early 1900’s, and is truly THE HEART of Santa Cruz! 

“Boardwalk View Villa” features a panoramic view of the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk and the Municipal Wharf. This is a spacious and bright two bedroom, two bathroom townhome, located on the corner of Cliff and 3rd Street(s). “Boardwalk View Villa” has an open kitchen and dining room (great room), with adjacent living room with fireplace and wall-mounted flat panel TV, with WiFi, fully modernized kitchen appliances, and updated décor. Just a 5 minute stroll down the street takes you to the San Lorenzo river path – where you will find yourself in downtown Santa Cruz – where eclectic boutiques and personalities meet a wide variety of restaurants, cafes and happening nightlife.

“Boardwalk View Villa” features two large updated bedrooms, updated and well lit bathrooms, soaring ceilings and modernized appliances and functional and efficient kitchen – well equipped for a home cooked meal with dining room seating for 6. This particular vacation rental property is well-suited for a single family traveling together and can comfortably accommodate up to 4 persons. In addition to the single car garage, one additional off-street parking spot comes with your reservation, as well as full laundry facilities, an upstairs balcony with patio seating, and an attractive interior courtyard space.

From “Boardwalk View Villa”, you can walk two flat blocks to Main Beach – one of the most popular family beaches in the San Francisco Bay Area. Here, is where the historic Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk  is located, and is the oldest amusement beach theme park in California. The Giant Dipper  – named a National Historic Landmark in 1987, was awarded a “Golden Ticket Award”  as one of the Top 25 Wood Coasters in the world. Beginning in mid-June and lasting through the Summer, free Friday night concerts are held at the Boardwalk – and the music can be heard throughout the neighborhood. A fun and festive way to kick off your weekend – pack a picnic and relax at the beach while listening to live music.

The Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf  is just a short, flat stroll away – and there, you can enjoy fresh local seafood, shop for souvenirs, or just take in the sights and sounds of barking sea lions and diving pelicans! To the left of the Wharf is the Main Beach and Boardwalk – a colorful site that is constantly in motion with lights and activity. To the right of the Wharf is Cowell's Beach  - one of the best surf spots in Northern California.

Bike rentals are nearby and trails abound to take you in every direction alongside the water’s edge, or up into the mountains. You can rent a beach cruiser and visit the nearby Surfing Museum on West Cliff, a paved path that winds for miles along the ocean, and find out why local residents have consistently voted it the Best Outdoor Promenade, Best Bike Ride, Best Jogging Trail and Best Roller Blading Ride in Santa Cruz.

Ride your cruiser to Natural Bridges State Park. Here, view thousands of butterflies in fragrant eucalyptus trees. Continue on your ride to part of UC Santa Cruz’s campus and visit the Seymour Marine Discovery Center and its 87 foot blue whale skeleton.

Play a round of golf at well-renowned Pasatiempo Golf Course – voted #11 by Golf Magazine’s “Top 100 Courses You Can Play” (just a 5 minute drive away!). Neighboring Capitola is just to the South, and the Monterey Peninsula is less than an hour’s drive away. Catch a ride on the Roaring Camp steam engine that leaves daily from the Boardwalk and travels up through the redwoods for an incredible family-friendly scenic tour. Walk down to the Museum of Natural History, and sit on the deck of Aldo’s Harbor Restaurant for dinner as you watch the boats drift in and out of the Harbor. Endless exploration and relaxation opportunities exist here, and we welcome you and your family to experience the heart of Santa Cruz at the “Boardwalk View Villa”!
