La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Santa Cruz

8/10 Good

"It was clean and quiet!"

La Bahia Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Gorgeous property with amazing views. Very relaxing and wonderful amenities. I highly recommend this property."

Surf City Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"A great stay, loved that the 2nd bed had its own room and tv. Bathroom was spacious. The water was hot, the fridge worked. They even have a mini golf there along side a patio where you Can relax. The only downside was you Can tell some guests live there as they were working on their cars and hanging out in groups in the rooms"

Hotel Paradox, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"We love The Paradox! It’s our staycation spot. The pool is great, the food is good, and the rooms are amazing and clean. Staff are very helpful, especially Blossom and Jay!! Jay is always so helpful!"

The Aqua Pacific Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was nice and clean with what felt like high-quality bedding. Shower was nice, they had very unique lighting, which was cool. We unfortunately had a bad neighbor, slamming doors and fighting all night, but it was not the hotel’s fault. All hardwood floors, which is a must."

Casablanca On The Beach

8/10 Good

"This place all around was beautiful, the location is great. My only complaint was that our coffee maker was missing a piece and I let the front office know about it and instead of getting a new piece or new coffee maker they told me oh well nothing they can do about it. They have a coffee bar from 8-10am but we have a baby so our mornings start at 5am so not having a coffee maker in the room sucked."

Seaside Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"Very Clean room, helpful staff. Many shops near by and a 15 minute walk to the boardwalk ."

Bella Notte, a ZenStay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Communication is great, Everything went smoothly."
