Top Younger Beach Hotel Reviews

West Cliff Getaway

8/10 Good

"This was a clean and well-stocked house in a wonderful location just off West Cliff Drive. Short walk to Natural Bridges Beach."

La Bahia Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is highly recommended."

Marea Sol Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, extremely clean and well maintained, and great staff. The only thing I’d change is utilizing the common room off the lobby and serving breakfast, or at least coffee."

Mission Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was probably my least favorite. The eggs were cold and of course they didn’t have any flavor and I thought that they had hot oatmeal cereal, but on closer examination, it wasn’t that I think it was potatoes or something. Not appetizing at all. But I grabbed an orange, an apple and some yogurt and a stick of cheese and that was fine. Whatever"

Seaside Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Me and my family decided to have a last minute beach visit we had no idea we were going to want to stay the night and once we figured we would I called everywhere (it was 7pm) and only this hotel answered there was always someone to help at the desk and it was fast and easy to book and it was a great price and me and my family would definitely recommend my only complaint would be you can hear the trash people early in the morning but everything else was just what we wanted"

Ocean Pacific Lodge

8/10 Good

"Pretty convenient location and a decent price compared with the astronomical price of many other options. Adequate parking and walkable distance to the downtown and plenty of dining options. I would stay again but would make sure my room was not immediately adjacent to the ice machine ( foot traffic of people getting ice) and the pool ( kids birthday parties etc not great if you’re trying to rest). Air conditioning was a bit loud tbh at least in my room - but on the plus side their wasn’t any drama at night or noise and I think they keep a close eye on the place- it’s a motor court arrangement with rooms facing out so could be vulnerable to randoms wandering through but there was no problem."

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Santa Cruz, CA

8/10 Good

"Breakfast is excellent. Beds are bit firm for my task. Didn't try pool or hot tub. Staff very friendly and professional. Parking is easy."

Sunny, Modern Cottage w/ Stunning Views, Steps from Beach & Natural Bridges

10/10 Excellent

"It was very clean and comfortable. Walking distance to Natural Bridges, great for sunsets. Better than we had expected. Wonderful hosts."

Mitchell's Cove Beach House

10/10 Excellent

"Mitchells Cove Beach House was perfect in every way. I liked the large family room where we enjoyed relaxing on the sofa and two comfortable chairs. There is a sliding door with access to the backyard. Easy in and out for the dogs. The kitchen had lots of counter space and was bright and nicely laid out next to the dining area and long table. I especially liked the home's layout. One of the bedrooms has it's own bath. The second bathroom was very nice with a bathtub/shower and long counter. Quiet neighborhood, walking distance to a beach. I felt comfortable staying here and would choose this home if I were to come back."
