La Bahia Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are beautiful! Staff super attentive, food was excellent! Location can't be beat! Can't wait to return!"

Seaside Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

Hotel Solares

8/10 Good

"Room is clean"

Hampton Inn Santa Cruz West, CA

8/10 Good

"The room was nice but the road noise was very loud. Check in was kind of annoying in that my vehicle license plate number was required to get a parking pass so that meant walking out once to get my plate number then a second time to put the pass in my car. The breakfast was ok too but cold cereal and yogurts would have been a nice addition."

Seaway Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Room was great. I wish they would clean up the lobby. They use it as a storage space. Extra chairs, refrigerators, lamp shades, and the tv is never on. Can’t sit there and relax. Three days I went there in morning there was no coffee made or hot water for tea. Looks like counter space for snacks but it is cluttered. I love this little hotel but the lobby space has never been finished. 😞"

Casablanca On The Beach

"Have stayed multiple times here! Always clean and great location. Walking distance to the pier and boardwalk."
