Fogarty Institute For Innovation Tours

This was a very clean room and they had just done improvements on the location and the room. Only thing that was bad was our room did not have shampoo or conditioner and per other guests asking at the front office they did not have any either. The one gentleman was told at 0715 am that he would have to wait til 0900 to get shampoo. I walked the couple blocks down the road and bought some at the gas station.

Short walk to Boardwalk great views

This is a great property offering wooded trails and spa. I used neither on my first visit to the resort. Our king room had separate living room with mini bar/fridge. The patio option is not private. Open to the strip of rooms on your sides. Small 2 seat slab facing slatted wood separator. Early check in was requested by me and three times (phone calls to insure availability) was promised by reception but was not available when we all arrived leaving us with few free options for shade and relaxation. Granted it was a super hot sunny afternoon which can be rare in sc. The situation was handled very well by the management and we really enjoyed our suite. Pool bar is +! More suitable for families imo.also you can hear the people above feet and muffled talk/music In the 1000 block and you are across from pool and separated by parallel parking and drive. Out of 5 star I would award 3.4 * which is high for Santa Cruz stays.😉
