Hidden gem that is ecologically designed beautifully decorated and small. Inner court yard with fire pits and couches make for an open air garden away from tourist areas. Downtown is central to all cool areas. Great whole bean coffee/latte/cocoa/tea bar in inner lounge free. 2:00on fresh backed snacks by coffee. Free Parking is right next door in camera monitored lot ( uncovered) full commercial kitchen available for all guests including huge fridge to store perishable items. Guest dinning area is so cute! Seaglass light fixtures Beach and wood accents. Friendly and attentive reception and greeting crew! the tall ceilings in the king rooms give a grand beach spacious feel to an already big room. The owner’s inspiration for the build and design are so eco friendly and sooo Santa Cruz vibe. Enjoy!

I booked last minute as I was just passing through and needed a night. The staff is so helpful, specifically Calvin. What a gem. The room was very clean and well appointed, and the ambiance and decor are so relaxing. I felt very safe in the property with rooms located inside a beautiful courtyard. Parking was next door in a lot and very convenient. Will definitely stay here again.

Location is the reason we tried this place out. Easy 2 blocks to Downtown and yet private feeling. Rooms were large and beds lux. Great free coffee cappuccino lattes and hot cocoa anytime with an afternoon sweet in lobby. We love this spot❣️
