Summary: We had a lovely stay at this charming Santa Cruz cottage. Nestled at the end of a quiet street, it felt peaceful yet centrally located. While the listing highlighted walkability, the main road nearby had little shoulder and no close crosswalks. Once across, we enjoyed a nice harbor walk, but we mostly drove since everything was nearby.The cottage is adorable, with succulents and a vibrant fuchsia bush by the door. The outdoor shower wasn’t used due to the season, but the private, clean hot tub was a highlight—we soaked twice a day! Inside, the bungalow has a cozy beachy charm, with original oak floors and a propane stove resembling a fireplace. We used the coffee pot and kettle but ate out at the many great restaurants. The bed was comfortable, and the space felt welcoming.A couple of things could be improved: the towels were thin and small, and a cozy throw blanket would have been nice for reading. The owners were very responsive to small maintenance needs. Overall, our stay was relaxing, quiet, and delightful. We loved coming back to this sweet cottage after exploring and would happily stay again!
