Great hotel. Expensive but great location. Excellent pool.

Location was great! The pool and beach were perfect! Food poolside was good. Easy walk to the boardwalk. Clean hotel ad fun surf decor!!!

Great location. Super kid friendly. Warm hot tub. Taco bar for lunch. Easy beach access and easy walking to boardwalk. Kids had a blast! Ages 3 & 6.

Dream Inn has been perfect for our quick get aways. The location on the beach is awesome! Awesome service by the reservations staff and front desk. Parking fee is a bit steep though.

The location and views are great. However, the room needs lots of updates, specially in the bathroom ( grout on the floor/corners coming apart, gray/black grout in the bathroom, scratches and wholes in the cabinets). It was also very noisy, you could hear everything from the rooms next to us and people walking in the hallways. The pool was nice but needs a good clean. There is a lot of buildup around the pool, specially in the jacuzzi. We didn’t stay long. The worst part was the hostess at the restaurant. She was very rude and condescending. Even though the restaurant had many open seats, she asked if we would leave by 11am “because a lot of people like to camp out and stay long.” What kind of welcome is that?! Food was ok, but we didn’t return during our stay. Overall great location, but the amenities and our room need updates to be at the high-end level that is advertised as.

I loved the ocean view and the heated pool. The pool music was a little loud as I could hear it from my room.

Good view

we have been coming to the Dream Inn for over 6 years. The room was clean but the bed was very uncomfortable and our room was on the corner just above the pool in the tower, The light shined in the room all night long and we could hear the elevator. I don't normally complain but I paid a lot of money for the room as well as upgraded the room when they are all the same. There were not extra amenities added to the room and we had to pay.

great location , easy walk to the wharf and boardwalk .

Excellent hotel! We loved the access to the beach and the pool area. The food was also delicious. Overall we had a great experience and plan to return!

This is my favorite hotel in Santa Cruz because it's right on the beach, the pool area has an awesome bar and jacuzzi, and the employees are all so friendly. This time my husband and I brought the kids and the looks on the kids' faces when they saw the view out the balcony of the room was priceless!

They charge

Great service, and very clean.

Great location on beach fun family vibe. Great service. Pool was great. Shower hard to turn on and soap was empty. Plumbing noises thru night.

This was a very nice place to stay. We will be returning here for our next stay in Santa Cruz. Amazing view of the ocean and boardwalk

It’s a nice property great for families however, the staff is very rude and not accommodatable

The staff at Dream Inn were professional and kind. We are low maintenance guests and we really enjoyed the hotel. Room service was excellent.

Amazing location! Friendly staff.

Location is perfect for a weekend at the beach!

Excelelnt Hotel with great service and View!!! Many amenties for resort fee!!
