This is the perfect Santa Cruz location. The day after I arrived, being a huge Starbucks white chocolate mocha lover, I decided to walk my Jack Russell terrier with Siri is my guide to the Starbucks location on E. Cliff Dr. It was a beautiful walk taking me all along the shoreline and through and estuary type of area. It was the most beautiful walk. We stopped at a couple of the beaches on the way back to watch the surfers catch their waves. We did this walk every day. It’s 3 miles but with the extra walks along the beach it turned into a 4 mile walk. Perfect.
Your host Annie is a beautiful soul and very eager to make your stay 100%. She’s very relaxed and always available to help if you need it.
The cottage is very quaint, a couple staying would be great but I think children would be a bit much. Although the place is small, personally I never felt closed in. The hot tub is very clean and with the lighting provided outside it’s like a magical paradise.
I got a migraine the night before I was scheduled to leave and Ani was awesome and allowing me to stay another day as there is no way I could drive home. Would I stay in this Airbnb again? Heck yeah I would. Annie + cottage + hot tub + proximity to the beach=heaven. I felt terrible that due to my headache I was on able to finish writing in her guestbook. I hope when I come visit to say hello that I am able to finish my review in the guestbook. Thank you Annie!
