Seacliff Inn Aptos, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
Excellent stay. Great service. Only area that needed a little TLC was the exterior hallways which had lots of cob webs.

Chaminade Resort & Spa
Food was superb. The employees were so attentive and very serviceable. This was a business stay so didn’t get the chance to enjoy the amenities. Did manage to squeeze in a hike the shortest trail of the 3 they offer. Breathtaking views especially after rainy day.
