O’Neal Vacation Rentals was founded by a local husband-and-wife team who shared a passion for hospitality, entrepreneurship, and the beautiful coastal towns of Santa Cruz County. What began as a dream to build something of our own has grown into a thriving, community-minded business built on integrity, care, and connection.

As a family-run company, we’re proud to bring our strengths together — attention to detail, local knowledge, and a deep love for our community — to support Santa Cruz’s vibrant tourism industry. Our mission is simple: to create meaningful guest experiences while helping local homeowners succeed in the short-term rental market.

We’ve built a passionate team of hospitality professionals who share our commitment to excellence. Together, we work every day to deliver exceptional guest stays and to showcase the charm, diversity, and natural beauty of our coastal towns.

At OVR, inclusion and accessibility are at the heart of what we do. We manage a wide range of properties, from luxury ocean-view retreats to cozy, budget-friendly surf shacks, all owned by clients who trust us to care for their homes as if they were our own. No matter the budget or the reason for your visit, we believe everyone deserves to feel welcome and at home here on the Central Coast.

Whether you’re visiting for a family vacation, a surf getaway, or a peaceful coastal retreat, we’re honored to help you experience the best of Santa Cruz, one stay at a time.

O’Neal Vacation Rentals is primarily focused on Short-Term Rentals, however, we occasionally manage Medium-Term Rentals (30-90 day stays) and operate under the supervison of our broker of record: DRE# 01990355
