We love the Chaminade!

Chaminade is one of the nicest properties that I have ever been to. It is situated on a bluff in Santa Cruz, and their two restaraunts have lovely panoramic views of the Monterey Bay. When weather permits you can even sit outside and eat while enjoying the view. The sleeping rooms are in small two-story buildings that give the property a quiet personalized feel. The rooms have super comfortable beds with down comforters and the bathrooms are stocked with Aveda bath products. There is tons to do at the resort itself, there is a full service spa, a heated pool and jacuzzi, hiking trails, a game room, a library, and an executive fitness center. All the staff is extremely helpful and friendly, they made you feel very welcomed. The property itself is located in a quiet area away from the main city, and you get the forrest feel so you can breathe clean crisp air. This is a hot spot for conferences and weddings, and I can see why with the beautiful setting. We love the Chaminade resort and spend tons of time there. Needless to say, it is a great place to relax and unwind from daily life.
