This home may be a little off the beaten path, but don't discount it! Connie and Frank's place will truly give you a wonderfully unique experience of Santa Cruz. The house, the room, and the view are all GORGEOUS! Every possible amenity was available, from extra (and extra fluffy) towels to breakfast snacks to expert guidance on where to eat and drink in the area.
One piece of advice - try to time your arrival before nightfall so you can more easily navigate up the hill to their place - the road twists and turns a bit!
