    Beautiful 1 Bedroom cottage behind owners main residence. Private entrance, plenty of amenities such as kitchen equipment ie: coffee, blender,microvave etc... Beautifully arranged as in furniture and access to blankets, towels, pillows. Actually more than enough for the two of us. Overall so very comfortable and cozy. We will be back for sure. The hosts were very gracious and welcoming and checked in with us to ensure we had all we needed.

    We were such a short walk from the waves and very comfortable. We loved it and want to stay again!

    The East Cliff Beach Cottage was absolutely perfect for our 3 night stay in Santa Cruz. Easy check-in, clean, comfortable and well appointed. A for bathroom amenities- super soft towels and high quality supplies (soap, shampoo, etc.). It’s private, secure, and spacious feeling for a condensed footprint. We will happily return!
