Top Lighthouse Point Park Hotel Reviews

Carousel Beach Inn

8/10 Good

"Very close to boardwalk, didnt like the fact there was mold in the bathroom shower"

Hyatt Place Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay at, very clean and very convenient"

Ocean Pacific Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient location to the beach!"

Bay Front Inn Santa Cruz

8/10 Good

"The property was fairly clean and our room was ready at the check-in time though there is a $35 charge to check in an hour ahead. Location is a short walk to the pier and boardwalk."

Riverside Inn & Suites Santa Cruz

8/10 Good

"A great value and an awesome location’"

Hotel Solares

10/10 Excellent

"I would recommend this stay"

Surf City Inn and Suites

8/10 Good

"Not the best area, but not terrible for the price, and the pool and hot tub are open until 10pm which is nice. Seemed like a lot of "street business" was being conducted around the property and of course the usual fighting/screaming couples was ever present. Also, the sink in the bathroom was clogged and wouldn't drain properly due to who knows what was dumped down it previously, so I had to clear that myself which was a little disgusting"

Dream Inn Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay"

Hotel Paradox, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"My biggest question would be why on earth are the towels grey…? They don’t look clean even if they are, but also they don’t look like the color is intentionally chosen… they’re pale grey and look as though they just don’t get washed properly."
