Allegra Villa Alla Spiaggia - See & Hear Ocean - Luxurious
This luxury second-floor Santa Cruz beach rental located a few houses from the beach exudes Mediterranean charm and offers panoramic ocean views of Monterey Bay. It was selected to appear on the show Sweet Retreats, which airs nationally on the ABC Live Well Network. A spacious living room, dining room and kitchen open onto an expansive rear deck. During your days, a short walk, without crossing any streets, leads to the top of a wood, railed stairway to the beach, and an outdoor shower awaits you upon your return. Spend a romantic evening listening to the waves crashing on the beach or drown them out with the surround sound state-of-the-art home theatre system for DVDs.
Three bedrooms and two baths offer comfortable sleeping in beds for up to seven guests. The master bedroom, which also opens onto the rear deck, includes a gas fireplace, an HDTV, a Blu-ray player and Apple TV. A large walk-in closet provides ample storage for all your travel apparel. Enjoy the wonders of the natural world with stone floors in both bathrooms, granite countertops throughout, and three radiant skylights.
This remodeled Santa Cruz beach house has insulated walls and double-pane windows, which will allow you to sleep peacefully even if the kids are still awake. So that you don’t lose touch with the outside world, high-speed wireless fiber internet and video streaming are provided. Finally, a high-efficiency washer and dryer will ensure that your clothes come home just as clean as they were when you arrived.
Our vacation home is packed with everything you will need to enjoy your escape, including: five beds; hypoallergenic comforter for each bed; two complete baths with granite countertops and stone floors and walls; a 55 inch 1080P LCD TV and 5 speaker in-ceiling surround sound in living room; a 40 inch 1080P LCD TV in master bedroom; Blu-ray Players for each TV, allowing for viewing both Blu-ray Discs and DVDs; Apple TV for each TV; beautiful gas fireplaces in both living room and master bedroom; a smartphone connection to the speakers in living room; a fully stocked kitchen that includes a refrigerator, a dual fuel range, a dishwasher and a microwave; and a dining room that accommodate six people at a table and three at a bar.
We are located 40 minutes south of the San Jose Airport and 1.5 hours south of the San Francisco Airport and 30 minutes north of Carmel and Monterey. The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk is about a 10 minute drive; ride the historic Big Dipper and enjoy a great family outing. The Santa Cruz harbor is just over a mile to the west, where you can check out the lighthouse and some nice restaurants. Pleasure Point, where you can experience some of the best surfing in the United States, is only a short mile away. Capitola is less than 3 miles to the east; take a walk down the pier or cruise around the local shops.
Unfortunately, there is no access to garage and no indoor storage for bicycles.
We look forward to your escape to our relaxing and beautiful Santa Cruz vacation rental beach house on Monterey Bay.

This property was perfect for our group of 5. It has a wonderful open floor plan and a great view of the ocean. It is equidistant to both the Santa Cruz Boardwalk and Capitola. We would definitely stay here again!
We always look forward to our stay every year. The view is so beautiful, the beach is so close, and the house is comfortable, with all the amenities you need. Can't wait for next year!
We’ve stayed at many properties through VRBO and this was one of our favorites. The house is very clean and the views are amazing with the sound of the ocean. We had the opportunity to meet Ed the owner and he was very personable and kind. Hope to come back in the future.
We look forward to staying here every year. The views are wonderful, and the property has everything you need. The icing on the cake is the short walk to the beach and nearby amenities.
This property was gorgeous and a great location. The home is very well-maintained with excellent finishings. There was an amazing ocean view. We had a great time and would definitely stay again!
nice views and sounds of ocean, very convenient location, comfortable accommodations, wonderful to have outside shower and faucet with warm water to wash off morning walk sand
We enjoyed our stay! The house was beautiful. The view and the sound of the ocean was amazing! My family of 6 had plenty of room, the beds were very comfortable. Had great communication with our host Ed.
I’ve stayed at several places in Santa Cruz. This one is the best by far. Excellent location and the owner really takes care of this property. Everything works and the fixtures are all high-end.
We had an excellent week. Great Ocean and Beach views from the Balcony and living room. The host was very accommodating and communicative. Took long walks on the beach and relaxed on the balcony to the sounds of the ocean. Hope to stay again soon.
We really enjoyed our stay here. The layout was perfect for our family, with rooms the kids loved, and a lovely master bedroom. The views from the back deck were stunning - we spent a lot of time relaxing there. Walking to the beach was a breeze, as was getting to Capitola, the Boardwalk, restaurants, etc. Best of all - everyone slept really well, and definitely better than we have anywhere outside our own home.
Allegra Villa Alla Spiaggia is aptly titled. It is a happy place at the beach. Three good friends spent a few days at the place... listening to the waves from the living room while we reconnected. In addition to the dining area and living room which look out to the beach, the villa has a well-equipped kitchen, and comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms. The owner is easy to work with and was kind and prompt in his replies.
We were absolutely thrilled with the Villa experience! Perfect location and view spectacular! We saw whales 🐋 from the balcony!!! Very clean and located perfectly for seeing everything we wanted to see and do! Recommend 100%! Thank you Ed!
Villa Alegria is a great rental! Nice amenities, kitchen very well stocked, main living area and lovely deck with a view of the beach. Hearing the ocean waves is very special! Bring your own beach gear and towels though. Owner is responsive to our requests. This is our second year here, and we’ll be back!
The property was well set up for grandparents, our daughter and spouse and two grandchildren. The kitchen has everything one might need/ want. The living and dining room spaces are easy to use and flexible for our group. The view is great and we had a big storm to watch! The bedrooms and bathrooms were a good size and set with all the important things we wanted. Lots of attention to detail to make your stay feel 5 star.
Beautiful beach home with all the little luxuries!
Our family stayed here while visiting friends who are local to Santa Cruz. We come from a landlocked state, so waking up each morning and looking at the ocean was amazing. You could hear the waves from the patio and we loved how comfortable, clean, and well cared for.the home is. The owner had great communication and clearly takes pride in the home and the customer service. We made several meals in the kitchen and had everything we needed- the unit is well appointed with quality appliances, technology, furniture, and decor.
It was a huge and happy surprise to walk in for the first time to a beautiful view of the ocean. We didn't know it was that good. Our family came from various parts of California to spend Thanksgiving here and enjoyed every aspect of being in the house. It has a unique design. The kitchen is well stocked. It's centrally located. And very clean. Well worth it.
This was a great place to stay. Close to all, especially walks to the beach and even to the Farmer’s Market one day. The house was roomy- great kitchen!!! Bedrooms ample size- and the master bedroom really spacious. Ed, the host, was very timely with all communication. Perhaps a few more throw blankets and extra stock of bathroom towels would have been nice. Although there is a washer and dryer in the house. Also a recommendation for more kitchen knives - we cooked a lot of our meals there. Overall, a wonderful stay!! Nice quiet neighborhood.
This house is amazing, with beautiful hardwood floors, a fully stocked kitchen, where we cooked almost every day and lacked for no kitchen tools, good-sized bedrooms, an impressive master suite, and a beautiful 2nd story view of the Pacific ocean. From this convenient location, we were able to walk on the uncrowded beach (even on Memorial Day weekend!) multiple times a day and travel to 3 separate state parks to see the redwood forest and further views of the ocean. Wildlife has included sea lions, sea otters, seals, marmots and innumerable varieties of birds. The homeowner and property manager is experienced, professional, straightforward and very responsive. 5 stars is a rating well-earned for both the details of the stay and the overall visit.
