We loved Liz's studio in Aptos. It's exactly as pictured with much charm and comfort. The patio extends the living space and is very private. The studio is only a few blocks to the beach which is very pretty and not too crowded. There was everything we needed for a nice getaway from San Francisco. 5 mins to Capitola and 10 mins to Santa Cruz. We'll definitely come back and so happy we chose to stay at Liz's Studio .
