The first stop of our honeymoon was the Sea & Sand Inn. This was the first time I had ever checked into a hotel without my parents so I honestly had no idea what to expect. Check in was incredibly fast and easy. The staff was super nice and easy to work with. After a minor complication with a broken blind in our room we got an upgrade to room 111, I love room 111. Breakfast was delicious, the fruit was fresh and the coffee was good. My only complaint the entire time was the lack of A/C, which, as a hefty fella, seemed significant. However, the view. Locationally we couldn't have picked a better hotel for the price. It's a short walk to everything. Santa Cruz is a beauty and I would return to the Sea & Sand Inn everytime.
I love this Inn!!!! 6 star i would say.
Had a great time.
The room very clean, bathroom extremely clean.
This has been my 4th time staying and I will stay again.
Oh customer service was excellent.
Thank you Sea and Sand Inn!!!!!
First of all it had an amazing view. It's why I stayed there. Complimentary wine Happy hour was great. Free breakfast meet my expectations. Clean. Friendly 24 hour front desk.
Nice hotel and great location, within walking to pier and restaraunts. Only drawback is the idiot motor cycles and loud cars on street. Clean and comfortable though
Great oceanfront location with beautiful views. Rooms are understated but clean and bright. Service is good but not great.
The view and location are the best parts of Sea and Sand Inn. The room was one of the CLEANEST of any hotel I've stayed in for at least a decade. The staff is very gracious and friendly. For the price, a number of amenities are missing: robes, feather pillows, high-quality linens. The large in-room tub was interesting. I may stay again, but only if a lower rate ($390) is available.
The Sea and Sand Inn has been our traditional family go to for many years. We've celebrated birthdays, graduations, and more. The rooms have upgraded over the years, the morning breakfast and wine and cheese in the afternoon never disappoint. The staff is friendly and caring. And the views are phenomenal. We'll be back for years to come.
Dirty sheets with pubic hair and sand! Beware!!! Also Not as pictured. More like a old motel. When I told the front desk about the sheets she said "well the housekeeper said she changed them so she did". Um what? Pubic hairs and sand in the bed! Over $200 an night? I didn't sleep a wink because I had the creeps so bad. Also did I mention the.l noise and severely clogged sink? You can hear EVERYTHING in rooms next door! No coffee or tea in rooms, old amenities. Poor quality food. Stains on carpet.
Right on the water and near everything Loved it here. Rooms are small but cute and comfy. Fireplace on the wall is a really nice touch. Peaceful in spite of local trafficParking is tight but staff will help if you can't find a spot. Would stay here again. Great value for the area.
Our favorite place to stay while in Santa Cruz. Rooms are spacious and clean, and the grounds offer excellent views of the Boardwalk, wharf and Monterey Bay.
The seasonal goodies in the quaint sitting room are an added bonus: tea and cookies or wine and chocolates, depending on season.
Beautiful views, friendly staff, lovely rooms and well kept grounds. Parking was difficult, bathroom a bit dirty but nothing that would prevent a return visit.
