Beautiful !
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Dream Inn. Kind of Retro, but also stylishly modern with everything we needed right there. Great little beach below, wonderful restaurant, the perfect location to stay at the beach and relax.

Best in Santa Cruz
Great hotel - pleasant and helpful staff, lovely rooms and great location. Definitely worth paying extra for the Tower suite if staying longer than one night!
Traveller's tip on dining
Avoid the wharf for food! The hotels recommended restaurants appear sound - we ate at Hawgs and Tiki and both were very good
