What a wonderful setting and a wonderful host. Kimlin could not have been more accommodating. Her place is close to downtown and in walking distance of numerous shopping options as well as various fine restaurants and Santa Cruz's famous "Buttery". It is in the back of her house overlooking a luscious and quiet garden. The unit is well-equipped, comfortable, and cozy. Our need for privacy was well respected and yet our gracious host was available when needed. This little refuge is ideal for a couple on an extended vacation in the Monterey Bay area or for a long weekend at the beach and boardwalk. If you're a Warriors fan you'll feel especially welcome.
