What an ideal place to stay! It's right off the highway, yet the place seems to be in some sort of soundproof vacuum due to masterful construction, and the woods are right there and lead to the beach! It is very private, as it has an entry code and I didn't see or hear anyone on the property the entire weekend. There is a convenient parking lot just outside the door. It is well-appointed with lots of granite counter space and is complete with coffee and a tea selection, as well as a refrigerator and all the tools to fry your own eggs. There was an abundance of pillows, towels, paper towels, toilet paper, natural soaps... It is about half a mile from a Natural Foods store and near several wonderful restaurants. And the pillow-top bed was heavenly. I was certainly impressed and may just revolve my Santa Cruz vacations around the availability of this gem.
