I LOVE this hotel!! You can not beat the price of their rooms with ANY OTHER HOTEL. The staff is welcoming & friendly, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and you’re literally a 5 minute walk to the Boardwalk & sandy beaches. This is my favorite by far and I DO PLAN ON STAYING HERE AGAIN!

Friendly staff, Clean rooms, great location, well priced. This hotel is a stones throw from the Pier and Beach. 5 min walk. and a 2 minute drive to Downtown. Many Hotels in Santa Cruz that allow pets are not worth staying at, This hotel is always clean and is well kept. I also commend the cleaning staff.

Weekend get away

Its walking distance to the beach. The cafe kitty corner was very good. It was conveniently located to the pier and beach. Allows dogs for a fee. I could hear the couple next door arguing and yelling at their small child. And at 10am i could hear a vacuum above us…it was suitable.

A nice hotel by everything

The hotel had convenient placement from everything from the boardwalk to downtown. Nothing too crazy about the hotel. Clean and reasonably priced
Liam, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

A comfortable stay

I spent one night at the Ocean Pacific Lodge and found it to be very friendly and comfortable. It feels like a budget hotel with some nice amenities, like a coffee maker and a microwave and a refrigerator. The person at the front desk was lovely. The bed was adequate, the pillows were a little hard, the towels were soft and clean, the toiletries provided were very nice. I thought the price was excellent for what I got, and I would definitely stay here again.
