Located in Santa Cruz, within 100 metres of Sunny Cove Beach and 4.3 km of Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Sunny Cove Motel provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool and free WiFi as well as free private parking for guests who drive. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. University Of California Santa Cruz is 7.7 km away and Pasatiempo Golf Club is 9.1 km from the motel. Sunny Cove is my favorite hotel in S.C. Its location and beach access 😎 are perfect. Across the street, you can find the best tamales, and Starbucks is just around the corner. It feels safe, and Jane is available to help at any moment.

This oceanfront hotel is located in Marina, California. The hotel offers views of the Pacific Ocean, a full-service spa, an on-site restaurant and in-room dining.

Located on-site at Sanctuary Beach Resort, Salt Wood restaurant delivers dishes that utilize the best seasonal local ingredients, highlighting remarkable produce and seafood, found throughout the Central California Coast and beyond. Sanctuary Beach Resort was and absolute highlight of our trip! The location is stunning, right on the beach with breathtaking ocean views and direct access to the sand. Our bungalow-style room was beautifully designed, spacious, and had a private balcony where we could relax and watch the waves. The resort’s peaceful atmosphere made it the perfect place to unwind. We loved the fire pits in the evening, creating a cozy and romantic setting. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed. The on-site restaurant served delicious meals with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. If you’re looking for a serene and luxurious escape along the California coast, Sanctuary Beach Resort is a must-visit!
