  Lovely area, clean unit. Bedrooms are facing the street which is very busy and noisy. Great property management company; excellent customer service, easy to work with, very responsive.

  This was our (approximately) 8th year with Cheshire Rio rental properties. That in itself expresses our satisfaction with them.

  Robert L from Salt Lake City, Utah recommends this vacation rental

  Our location was excellent. We experienced two very negative events associated with the unit and the location. We could not get the hot water in the shower in the rear bathroom to work. Not associated with our unit but with the location was many nights were kept awake by loud parties and unsupervised teenagers in the parking lot below our unit. Parties were on going until 1 and 2 am many nights . This was so disturbing that the sheriffs were called at least twice.

  Georgia S from Citrus Heights, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Loved my stay for 3 weeks! Listening to ocean 24/7 was relaxing and cool breeze was needed. The beds were very comfortable. Having the washer and dryer was helpful. The elevator and not having stairs made it very accessible and easy.

  Property condition:

  a guest from Gainesville, FL recommends this vacation rental

  Cozy 2 bedroom with 4 sliding glass doors. An end unit, windows wrap around the corner providing panoramic views of Monterrey Bay. The doors open onto a nice balcony that also wraps around the corner and includes 3 chairs and small electric grill. 4th floor unit in building situated a couple of hundred feet above the beach. Nicely furnished, well equipped kitchen, good quality linens and, at least in January, good street parking. Gas log fireplace was especially appreciated given lack of heating in main room and strong winds rattling and leaking through the patio doors at night. Garage is included with unit with elevator provided. Unit is convenient to everywhere in Santa Cruz area. One mile from Hiway 1, 15-minute drive into SC. Simple walk downhill to the beach and beachside café and deli.
  
  Real Estate company was reasonable to deal with and their rental agreement is not onerous. We had two issues when arriving: no heat in main room and busted towel rack in one bathroom. They responded promptly with space heaters as temps were in 40s at night and promised to have someone come by to check heat and repair towel rack. No one ever arrived. Each room has its own thermostat. They function more as an on/off switch. Couldn’t ever get them to regulate temp very well.
  
  All in all a comfortable, well cared for unit in a beautiful location. We would stay here again and recommend to friends.
