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!
