My family stayed for two nights on a weekend in June. The location could not have been more perfect for a beach getaway! The cottage is a 5-10 minute walk from the beach. Having boogie boards for the kids and beach chairs for the adults was so nice. We loved that the beach at Seacliff is not as crowded as some other areas around Santa Cruz and Capitola. There is a Marianne's ice cream, pizza, and Mexican food restaurant within walking distance of the cottage too. Safeway is just a short drive away.
While the location is probably the best part about this cottage, I also loved how the place was decorated. Really everything we needed was available from kitchen utensils to board games. There isn't any air conditioning, but it cooled off nicely in the evening and the fans did a good job of moving the cooler air through the house.
