Location
This Santa Cruz hotel is near the entertainment district of Santa Cruz and a stone's throw from the Wide Main Sandy Beach. The Casablanca Santa Cruz offers location within 20 minutes' walk of the protected Lighthouse Field State Beach.

“In my opinion, this four-star beachfront inn certainly courts families with its Santa Cruz location and pet-friendly policies. The ocean views and balcony access, standard in many rooms, are the true highlights. I think the unique beach cottage style and Thai dining add some charm, but I'd consider construction next door.”
