Top Santa Cruz Main Beach Hotel Reviews
Marea Sol Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Everything was perfect"
Hotel Paradox, Autograph Collection
8/10 Good
"Reception service was nice. Lobby and restaurant had lovely aesthetics. Room was modern and clean. Restaurant service was unorganized and slow. Food menu was decent though. Pool area was inviting but definitely need to change their pool chairs. The material makes them look super dirty. Yuk."
Casablanca On The Beach
10/10 Excellent
"This renovated property is across the street from the beach and a block from the Santa Cruz pier. It is blocks from the train that takes you to the redwoods. It couldn’t be any better of a location. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend for a visit."
Aqua Breeze Inn
8/10 Good
"Very nice room and very close to Boardwalk"

Torch Lite Inn
10/10 Excellent
"Above all else, staff was amazing. The rooms were clean and cozy. The inn is super close to the boardwalk which is nice. We had a lovely stay there and even made friends with a neighborhood cat named Honey (the sweetest). Definitely recommend and will be back."
Surf City Inn and Suites
10/10 Excellent
"The pool, hot tub and deck area were great for relaxing, walking distance to downtown shops and rest as well as the boardwalk. Trader Joe’s and CVS near by for all the at once needs"
Carousel Beach Inn
10/10 Excellent
"We decided to extend our stay at the last minute and needed a hotel. So glad this one was available for my family of 4. The room was clean, it was so close to the boardwalk and the kids loved watching the rides from the balcony! Breakfast is also included which is a huge win for my early risers. We can’t wait to come back!"
