Experience Santa Cruz—Safely
As of June 12, 2020, Chaminade Resort & Spa will be ready to welcome all travelers far and wide back to the Santa Cruz Mountains. Here, you can breathe easy—and not just because of the salty sea air blowing in off Monterey Bay. You'll be at ease because we're doing everything we can to ensure your return to Santa Cruz is as safe as possible.
We've used our time away to reimagine what it really means to "Be The Difference," as our mantra goes. In light of COVID-19, we've intensified our commitment to cleanliness and revised everything from check-in to check-out to ensure you can enjoy all the beloved Chaminade experiences safely.
