Carla's guest cottage is my new "happy place"!

My boyfriend and I spent a lovely and relaxing weekend as guests and just loved the space. The cottage was much bigger than we anticipated and was a wonderful, well-furnished space that was very clean and cozy.

We were lucky and also met Carla's husband, baby and dog during our stay. Once we were in the cottage area though, it was so quiet we couldn't hear a thing from the main house.

Their property is landscaped beautifully and we felt like we were entering a little enchanted garden the moment we walked down the lighted bamboo path leading to the cottage. Enjoying a quiet evening soak in the hot-tub under the avocado tree bathed in moonlight was the perfect way to end the day!

I think I said "This owl shower curtain is so adorable, I love it!" every time I walked into the bathroom.

We hope to stay again on our next trip to Santa Cruz and enjoy the outdoor deck if it is a little warmer.

Thank you again Carla!
