Courtyard by Marriott Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel, great location (short walk to the boardwalk). Also good onsite restaurant."

Bella Notte, a ZenStay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, quiet location. Walkable to breakfast joints and Deke's Market/Deli. Comfortable bed. Love the kitchenette. High ceilings so the room temperature stayed on the cool side. The Panasonic microwave/oven was high performance and allowed us many options for reheating some foods like our Hawaiian rice and crisp up our chicken katsu and leftover pizza. Perfect idea! The bathroom is also high ceiling and didn't get steamy from the shower; there's a window to open if that became a problem. Love the rainshower head, but we could have used more water pressue than the gentle rainfall it gave. We felt the room was too cool for us when we arrived but had a hard time figuring out the controls on the thermostat and ended up turning it off. The room never got stuffy even though we did that. We also had a small problem of ants crawling up from behind the bathroom sink one night after returning from our outing and contacted the staff right away. Great communication! They made plans immediately to come and cleaned out the problem area the very next day. Would recommend this hotel to anyone and everyone."

Riverside Inn & Suites Santa Cruz

8/10 Good

"Good service at affordable price, staff very friendly."

Casablanca On The Beach

8/10 Good

"Weds a good update of the property. Security gates on the property were all broken and taped so homeless individuals were sleeping inside the property gates at night. Great view however from the sun deck and they gave us blankets for sit with our fire pit at night."

Beautiful Craftsman Style Home

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely home that fit all our needs. Large outdoor space and fantastic dining room to accommodate our family. Great location near the beach and harbor."

Harbor House A, overlooking Santa Cruz Harbor

10/10 Excellent

"I had a perfect 11 night stay in this unit while in Santa Cruz for work. It was a perfect fit for me, a minute walk to the beach, restaurants in walking distance, and I did enjoy the sounds of the sea lions in the background.The hosts were very easy to communicate with. I needed additional towels and they were dropped off the next day. My girlfriend came out for one of the weekends and it was plenty of room for us, especially since we were out most of the time exploring the area."
