We loved our stay at Elizabeth's bungalow. it is much better than the pictures on Airbnb. The kitchen has everything you for a long-term stay. The neighborhood is very safe. Restaurants grocery stores, beaches are less than 10 minutes drive. Me, my husband and our baby had a fantastic stay. Santa Cruz is amazing. We fell in love with this city. Elizabeth is very responsive and a great host. Don't think twice, if you're planning to visit California for a long-term stay, Santa Cruz would be a great choice and Elizabeth's place would be an excellent choice.
