Marea Sol Hotel

8/10 Good

"A+ access to the beach/boardwalk."

Hyatt Place Santa Cruz

8/10 Good

"Parking fee of $23 per day wasn’t disclosed neither mentioned upon check in. Initially inquired about the parking system, the only reply I received from their front desk staff is “vallet only” and no fee was mentioned. The only time i realized it was on my check out. As a part of the customer service, i believe ALL possible charges must be disclosed…"

"Very comfy beds Hot water Full kitchen Very clean Nice TV channels Very close to beach access Cute lil' breakfast"

Luxury Ocean View w/ Hot Tub - Walk to Yacht Harbor, Beach & Dining

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay. The house was beautiful and comfortable, obviously well maintained, with much thought that went into it's design. It was lovely to enjoy the ocean view from the second floor from the kitchen and dining area as well as the comfortable living room area. The upstairs had an indoor/outdoor feel to it with the balcony doors open. The hosts also really thought of everything needed to make the house comfortable. The kitchen was probably the most well stocked of any house we've ever rented, the towels and bedding were of very high quality, there was beach equipment in the garage that we could use, a ping pong table, working hot tub, and even a firepit outside. And on top of all that, a fantastic location walking distance to the beach and a block away from the Sunday farmer's market. The hosts were incredibly kind and went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and having a nice time. I couldn't recommend more highly."

Blacks Beach Retreat,Wi-Fi, near Harbor & Steps to Twin Lakes Beach!

10/10 Excellent

"Will not be disappointed with your stay. Place was comfortable, great location. Adequate parking and great accessibility to venture out to explore Santa Cruz. We are already planning next trip…"

The Eastman House steps to the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Beautifully decorated home, very clean and had all the amenities you would expect. Large backyard but we did not use it. Great location close to the beach and walkable restaurants. On Sunday there was a fairly large farmers market just a block away from the house. Easy communication with hosts, and would definitely stay again!"
