The resort was a great experience overall! Although on the surface the resort looks a little aged and dated, the insides are quite modern and clean. The weather was fairly cold, which I heard is a standard experience with visiting Santa Cruz. The beach is quite close by with a lot of different atttactions to take part in (the boardwalk comes to mind), and there are nice short and easy hiking trails within walking distance of the resort.
