Visited Santa Cruz many times and this was the best place so far. Great view and outside area to relax. Walked out to dinner and around town. It was fresh and clean, though a little small, but it's an older property so it's expected. Breakfast provided each day was very convenient. The staff was friendly and helpful. Great place to...

We stay here often as it is our favorite spot in Santa Cruz. The gardens are lovely and it is in just the best location. Its easy to park, and walk along the cliff, or down to the boardwalk. I love waking up to the seals in the bay. The rooms are very basic, but very comfortable also. It feels... More

We just stayed at the Sea and Sand Inn February 10 & 11 and we loved our stay here! We booked it due to the great Trip Advisor reviews we read. We traveled with our 5-year old daughter and the Inn was very cute and nicely kept. The grounds of the property were immaculate and it sits atop a huge... More

We stayed here for 3 nights and appreciated the nicely appointed king room with spa and fireplace and the motel's fabulous location. Overlooking the water, the motel is within walking distance of restaurants, including those on the boardwalk and wharf. From our room, we could see the bay, wharf, and boardwalk, surfers, sailboats, and sunsets. We enjoyed the complimentary wine... More

We enjoyed a 2 day stay at this property and found it to be a great spot to base at to get out and explore the Monterey Bay area. The room was clean and comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. The Wine and Cheese offering in the evening is a nice touch and we would happily recommend this... More

After reading all the reviews on TripAdvisor, we zeroed in on a stay at the Sea & Sand Inn. We were not disappointed! A darling inn, right on the cliff, with absolutely spectacular views! We were lucky enough to have landed in the deluxe spa room (king bed, spa, & fireplace!) and it was worth every penny. We opened up... More

All I can say is the rave reviews that convinced us to choose this delightful retreat from ordinary reality were amply justified. The location is spectacular, nestled on a cliff between the funky and historic Santa Cruz Boardwalk/Beach and a gorgeous walk along the ocean, featuring numerous dolphin sightings. The rooms are smallish but beautifully appointed. A nice breakfast buffet... More

My wife & I have been coming to Santa Cruz for many years, always thinking the Dream Inn was the bomb. Well, to our pleasant surprise, the bomb is next door...the Sea & Sand Inn is the awesome (and half the price of the Dream Inn). The rooms are clean and spacious, each has a spectacular view of the ocean,... More
