Top Red White and Blue Beach Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"Pool in pics looks way bigger then the actual and not enough lounge chairs"

Ocean Pacific Lodge

8/10 Good

"Pretty convenient location and a decent price compared with the astronomical price of many other options. Adequate parking and walkable distance to the downtown and plenty of dining options. I would stay again but would make sure my room was not immediately adjacent to the ice machine ( foot traffic of people getting ice) and the pool ( kids birthday parties etc not great if you’re trying to rest). Air conditioning was a bit loud tbh at least in my room - but on the plus side their wasn’t any drama at night or noise and I think they keep a close eye on the place- it’s a motor court arrangement with rooms facing out so could be vulnerable to randoms wandering through but there was no problem."

Riverside Inn & Suites Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice staff, clean room, affordable. Will come again."
