We spent a night here while travelling highway 1 - we had high expectations and they were more than met. The Inn overlooks the beach on the quieter side of Santa Cruz - it's in a residential area and looks fairly ordinary from the outside, inside it's luxurious, renovated to a high spec, with a great deal of thought put... more

Our kids abandoned Duluth MN for the California coast, and now we are forced to visit Santa Cruz at least twice yearly. Usually my wife and I have stayed at the Best Western all suites inn which is, I think, the best hotel in Santa Cruz proper. This time, I thought we should splurge and try the Pleasure Point Inn.... more

We stayed in the Dolphin Room midweek in March for two nights & had the whole place to ourselves both nights. I loved the location and the room & would stay there again for a special occasion. The previous few reviewers described most of the great amenities but I'll add a few comments. The lights in the room were controlled... more

This was our first night in California. We arrived late, but the instructions for getting into the inn (which is very private) were easy and keys/instructions were left as promised. We stayed in the Pelican room (fantastic) that has a lovely jet tub, fireplace, hardwood floors. The view from the sky deck on top of the inn is fantastic.. plenty... more

This is a place that I will now set a standard by. It was most excellent. Tara ( who's now on maternity leave ) called to check on me. When we arrived everything was in order to do a self check-in. The room was perfect and spotless. The location was perfect, especially if you surf. Your right in the mist... more

We just got back from a quick trip to Santa Cruz to pick up our son from a summer program at the University. I found the Pleasure Point Inn on trip advisor. What a find! The Inn is located on a bluff overlooking the ocean (and a surfer beach). The views from the rooftop (with jacuzzi) are wonderful. We only... more

Nothing short of excellent… I’ve stayed at One & Only, Rosewood and Ritz Carlton Resorts and I have to say that I would have to put the Pleasure Point Inn in the same category as it relates to comfort, cleanliness, great staff and an awesome location. A great place to stay to feel like a “local”, will definitely recommend to... more

We had to reschedule our booking and pull it forward a couple of days due to bad weather in our previous location and the staff at the Pleasure Point Inn could not have been more helpful! As it turned out we had the place to ourselves for the night we stayed there and it made it so special, particularly because... more

A lovely friendly place to stay, with thoughtful features like a groovy fire, awesome jacuzzi tub, mini-terrace, large hot tub, great breakfasts, friendly staff (thank-you Jill!). The one-ways and odd name changes make finding your way around a little tricky, but we enjoyed our 2 nights here in Pelican very much. more
