This is the second time we have stayed at Erika and Blake's cottage and again, we were not disappointed. The cottage is located in back of the main house, with a large courtyard in which one can enjoy a happy hour drink! The cottage is cozy and comfortable; the kitchen is fully equipped...we even ate dinner in a few times. The beach is a 5 minute walk; the Fishwife restaurant is a mere 10 minute walk. The passes to the Monterey Aquarium is a lovely perk as is the breakfast each morning. We will continue to return to this lovely abode. We highly recommend the place to everyone; a much better alternative to a motel room!
