Santa Cruz was surf central California long before the Beach Boys sang about it. The Surfing Museum in the Mark Abbott Memorial Lighthouse tells stories of those who have braved some of the world’s best waves.
Overlooking the ocean rollers are the Coconut Grove Ballroom and Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk - the oldest amusement park in the state of CA, and the last original one on the West Coast. Its historic carousel, rollercoasters and rides are a colourful backdrop to Cowell’s Beach, best viewed from the Sky Glider cable cars.
Jutting into Monterey Bay is the wharf where sea lions bask and pelicans decide on their next meal. Seafood restaurants are abundant here and the bars provide lively nightlife. Pacific Avenue is the main shopping area and one street away is the Museum of Art & History.
Unsurprisingly for a surfer hotspot, the city has a liberal outlook and is known for political activism - a far cry from the era when the Santa Cruz Mission was established. The mission is now a state park alongside Natural Bridges Beach and the Big Basin Redwoods in forested hills behind the city, home to the gravity-defying Mystery Spot.
Booking.com’s Santa Cruz accommodation includes pet-friendly motels, hotels with hot tubs and cheap inns near UCSC.

I believe the hotel is a nice location to stay, they might consider getting better maintanance, and cleaning help, some one that can speak english, to better help the guest. Jessica, was very polite, and tried to help as much as possible. There were just a lot of little things, they could have been prevented, especially when you pay the high price charged there. When booking, I thought I was booking direct with the property, never knew bookings, com, jumped in to the equasion. So when I asked if they honored AAA, or AARP discounts, they said no because our room was booked by a third party. Also asked for room with 2 queens, was told they were sold out, which forced us to book 2 seperate rooms, after arriveing, found out they had suites for four people. I think this was a money thing, for bookings.com

It was quiet and wasn't too crowded . Beaches and restrooms were clean.wheather wasn't all that warm and it did rain hour or so after we got to the beach pretty heavy we had to leave in a rush. All in all, kids were very happy with trip they can't wait to return for their summer trip.

The location was the best!
The location was the best! The stairs are a lot of work if you have issues. I can't believe the Boardwalk is closed on fridays! If you are planning a friday night adventure at the boardwalk you will need to find something else to do.

Santa Cruz gets sleazy fast (a lot of justly disaffected youth manifesting the consequences of a tattered social fabric & like), but the near-perfect climate year-round, the surrounding (2nd or 3rd growth, but still....) redwoods, challenging cols (lots of category 2s & 1s), vast fields of agriculture (it is delightful to cycle through the fields on what amount to ruelles; these areas are intensely redolent of earth, manure & whatever is being cultivated, plus it makes one appreciate just how back-breaking is the labor that goes into producing one's strawberries & artichokes & like) & vegan eating options (especially the bakeries) make any visit worthwhile, especially if you're from an area that does not have that year-round ideal climate. I recommend cycling up SkyLine or HighLand or Empire Grade or getting out in the fields toward MonteRey. Country roads are nearly uniformly narrow, but traffic is mostly light (minus HighWay 9) & drivers generally courteous (again, minus HighWay 9). Santa Cruz even has the mark of any good location -- a nearby Grocery Outlet -- which, due to its location on the edge of town (it may actually be in Soquel), is easy to integrate into the end of a ride for some yummy and cheap vegan delights =)

A small treasure and throw-back to a different era: the Boardwalk on the beach, opened in 1907, with a roller coaster and carousel from near that time frame, the tradition & history of the surfing venue, the old (but renovated) motels along the beachfront, and the labyrinth of mid-century housing, some refreshed, some not, make this a worthwhile visit! There are lovely walks along the pier, where sea lions sun themselves, along the coast, where surfers wait for the perfect wave, and along the trails city streets, festive with many cultures represented.
I thought the rooms and the hotel was super cute and unique and a great value for what you pay! I didn’t get to try out the pool but the tub in the room was big enough to feel like a jacquzzi! it felt like a little bed and breakfast without the breakfast but easy access to everything Santa Cruz offers walking distance away~
Wonderful hotel! Candace at the front desk was friendly and welcoming. I loved the room she assigned us. I was traveling with my pitbull Daisy and appreciated being welcomed so warmly. Casablanca Inn will be our go to whenever we or anyone we know comes to Santa Cruz.
Every member of the staff that I encountered were nice and helpful. The breakfast is pretty standard hot hotel breakfast. I loved the location as it was close enough to anything in Santa Cruz but not in a busy party area. A great pizza place right across the street.
This cute little boutique hotel is a wonderful little gem. Rooms cozy with fireplace and hot coffee/latte available in the lobby along with lovely banana bread. A short walk to the shops and restaurants downtown. I would definitely stay again.
I liked the room, it was big compared to other hotels in Santa Cruz. It had a great view of the beach. The staff was nice and friendly. We were able to get in our room a few hours early. It has a nice pool. We will be coming back soon.
Lots of upgrades. Staff very friendly. I had forgotten something in my hotel room and she did not hesitate to get it back to me. This where I will be staying whenever I go to Santa Cruz. Walking distance to Boardwalk and Wharf.
Great hotel! The nicest, cleanest, and most modern one we’ve seen in Santa Cruz. A quick drive to the pier. The staff was nice and incredible too. I would come here again and again.
Its a nice motel.
Fantastic location directly across the road from Santa Cruz boardwalk and amusements..
The room had a balcony, fridge and microwave.
Ample complimentary parking.
The breakfast was delicious and the portions were perfect! I love how retro and special the hotel itself feels! It is my favorite hotel and the best in Santa Cruz!
