Top Cowell's Beach Hotel Reviews
Carousel Beach Inn
10/10 Excellent
"N"
Casablanca On The Beach
10/10 Excellent
"Excellent location, close to everything. The room had a great view of the beach and bed was comfortable. My only complaint is that we were not informed the outdoor area outside our room (the entire deck) was private to another guest’s room. While staff was polite informing us we were essentially trespassing on our neighbors personal space, it was an uncomfortable situation that could have been avoided if there were signs or it had been made clear beforehand."
La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Santa Cruz
10/10 Excellent
"Great location, easy to access the beach and boardwalk."
Beach Street Inn and Suites
8/10 Good
"Location is fantastic , we were literally right on the seafront. The staff were lovely and friendly. The rooms are okay, they are a decent size, but really could do with a full refresh, bamboo blinds etc let a lot of light in, the beds were okay, the shower water pressure was pretty low. Nice feature to be able to cast to the TV from your devices .Its a great location, so if your main aim is to be close to the pier / boardwalk and downtown, this is great, but its not going to win any awards for room comfort. I would say its a 2 star room in a 4/5 star location"
Seaside Inn & Suites
8/10 Good
"Clean and good"
Riverside Inn & Suites Santa Cruz
10/10 Excellent
"The aRiverside Inn was a nice place to stay. If I’m ever in Santa Cruz again, I’ll try to stay there."
Hotel Paradox, Autograph Collection
10/10 Excellent
"This, in my humble opinion, is the best place to stay in Santa Cruz. It’s DIRECTLY in the middle of town—it’s easy to get anywhere from the hotel. The property is adorable. The pool is great. The bar is open late and the food is good. The rooms are updated and super cute. Whenever friends come to see our daughter at UCSC, I always recommend it. We love it ."
Beachview Inn
10/10 Excellent
"This is our second year staying here. It’s so close to the beach and boardwalk. Practically across the street. Very friendly staff. Clean nice rooms. Will stay here again next year."
Courtyard by Marriott Santa Cruz
10/10 Excellent
"We were impressed by the room; it was very clean and cozy. The hotel is located near the ocean, within walking distance. We were very pleased."
