“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.”
