This was my husband and my first trip using AirBNB and we LOVED IT! We had a great trip to Santa Cruz and a relaxing time staying at Carla's garden cottage.

The cottage is recently remodeled with great decor. Stocked with a good selection of books and games. Beautiful orchard-like garden. Short to moderate walk to downtown and the beach. Everything delivered as promised; we couldn't have asked for a more positive experience.

Carla is an attentive and responsive host. She was out of town the weekend we stayed over, but she was well in touch via email / text and arranged for a friend to meet us and answer any questions we may have had during our stay.
