Fit in a stroll along the water's edge and soak in the views at Santa Cruz Harbor. The blue sea and gently bobbing boats make an excellent photo opportunity.

To visit this place for ships to anchor, find your way to Eastside Santa Cruz. You'll find plenty of other things to see and do in the area, including Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, University of California, Santa Cruz, and Natural Bridges State Park.

7.2/10 Good! (918 reviews)
The rooms were clean and spacious, although I had to place the microwave on the floor to be able to plug it in. This wouldn’t be accessible to someone who can’t lift, bend over, get back up, and so on. Same for the coffee machine, although I didn’t use that. I feel that this should have been communicated to some extent. My stay was otherwise very nice and I enjoyed the breakfast!

8/10 Very Good! (1,003 reviews)
Perfect spot to stay and be close to the boardwalk. You could hear the fun happening during park hours and when the park closed, it was quiet. Great place to stay. We will definitely come back.
