Tucked away at the edge of a forest, yet just a few miles from all the action in Santa Cruz.

Friendly motel steps from the boardwalk. It's like having a roller coaster and ice cream right in your room.

Pacific Avenue locale drops ya smack dab between downtown and the boardwalk (both within strolling distance!).

Historic status as one of Cali's first seaside condo resorts dating back to the '20s.

Less than 2 miles from the boardwalk. Meander at your own pace, preferably with an ice cream in hand.

Retro-chic reno’d rooms blend yesteryear’s flair with a mod sense of style.

The outdoor pool takes vacay vibes to new heights.

So close to the Beach Boardwalk you can practically feel the pull of the taffy.

Ideal perch steps from local shops and restaurants – plus the beach right outside your door.

Downtown (and all the local hotspots) is only a 10-min walk away (read: stressful city parking is a non-problem).

Just a 2-min stroll from the Rio Del Mar beach.

Classic motel-style digs updated with sophisticated modern beachy décor – mins from the boardwalk, downtown & Mystery Spot(!).

Tons of options at the complimentary hot breakfast — the only tough choice we like being faced with before noon.

Perched right(!) on(!) the Beach Boardwalk, steps from all the theme park rides, food stands and live bands.

Throws in a free breakfast, on the house.

Modern interiors rock a fear-no-color palette and sea-themed artwork. For surfers, Pleasure Point and Lighthouse Point beckon.

Contemporary, comfy and casual, for when you don’t want your room to feel overdressed.

A former rail depot beloved by locals, each room is inspired by a destination known for welcoming travelers.
