Mary’s spot was perfect for a reunion with two dear friends I hadn’t seen for several years. The location is perfect - just a few blocks away from the beach and the Aptos beach is lovely- spacious and not crowded. It’s also a short 10 minute drive from lovely redwoods. Mary gave excellent dining recommendations and was very responsive. We really enjoyed the relaxed feel of the home and the kitchen, living room and outside overlook were great for hanging out and catching up. Bonus for us was the third bedroom was in a small, detached cottage in the back with it’s own bathroom and small kitchen. One of our group really appreciated the space for meditation and journaling before joining us for the day.
