Loved Erika and Blake's cottage. Once we learned our way around, we realized how close we were to everything; 5 minute walk to the ocean and Asilomar State Park with lots of walking paths; 5-10 drive to the aquarium, good food, etc. Quiet, secluded small cottage in their large, beautiful, flowery back yard. Saw many other hotels/places to stay and knew we had found the best place. Great hosts, great breakfasts. Loved the whole experience. Highly recommend.
