Beach access was almost like a private access point. So beautiful and easy. The foot washing station was thoughtful and perfect too! Love this hidden gem đź’• ##### Jane Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jean Claude Jul 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Incredible Stay! Incredible location…so close to the most beautiful beach, super friendly staff, amazing Italian restaurant within walking distance. Absolute gem of a place! ##### Jean Claude Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine Oct 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The location was great, right at the beach. We had the king room that allows dogs (room 16) but didn’t get much sleep. When people walked above it was very noisy, the bed was too soft and they would not allow dogs on the furniture, so our dog was constantly waking us up. Great resort, just recommend you avoid room 16 and it is not suitable for a dog if they are used to being on the furniture. ##### Christine Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Valerie Oct 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The small cove and Beach were lovely. The unit was clean and had a small kitchen no area to sit inside but there is was a table outside. Some rooms have access to a nice deck and yard. Our room was pet friendly and probably one of the smaller units. There were some bushes on the neighboring property that obstructed our direct view to the beach would be nice if they could negotiate those being trimmed for a better view. ![Photo is from an upper staircase](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/432be3e2-5e3c-41df-b4a5-325bfc1d222a-1761155833268.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Valerie Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gene May 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Location and friendly staff ##### Gene Stayed 6 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kenny Jul 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Amazing experience, the staff was amazing.

The little cottages are charming and mine had a small kitchenette. The room was spotless and comfortable. I liked hearing the water from the very close beach. Just walk down some stairs and a few feet down the street, and you're at a great little beach. I hope to visit again!!! Thank you ##### Quinn Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gerry Oct 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I wanted a room away from the hussle and bussle of most other Santa Cruz hotels and found Ocean Echo. What a find. Situated in a lovely, quiet neighborhood next to the beach. We stayed in the Captain's Quarters, which was more pricey than I'm usually willing to spend but it was worth it for the occasion and amenities. Spacious, clean, and very comfortable. We loved having our own private deck with great view of Sunny Cove Beach and sleeping peacefully with the sliding door open. Staff were friendly and helpful. Nice breakfast as well, which we enjoyed on our deck. Will be my go-to spot for future Santa Cruz stays. ##### Gerry Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eval Jul 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I liked that the property was within 2 minutes walk to a small and beautiful beach, was 7 minutes drive from Capitola where there are great dining options, shoppings, beaches and views. I liked the friendliness of the staff, the quiet environment, the easy parking, and the option of a continental breakfast. I highly recommend the place. ##### Eval Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Araceli Apr 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My husband and I loved our stay, it was so close to the beach, super cozy, clean, and they had everything you needed!

Found online and by accident, but has become one of our favorite places to look forward to visiting year after year. Private Beach, perfect location close to everything, pet-friendly rooms and great friendly service, can't ask for more. ##### marilyn Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura Jun 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort It’s was a very nice, clean, cute place! 2 min to walk to the beach!

Room 7 was tiny. The Queen bed was the smallest queen bed I’ve ever seen, and it was not comfy at all. ##### David Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### leticia Jan 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property was beautiful ##### leticia Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ivan Apr 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Right next to a small beach, dog friendly, clean, and great staff! ##### Ivan Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Amy Apr 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beachside Getaway This place was an excellent getaway location for my husband and I for a long weekend in Santa Cruz. The staff was so welcoming and accommodating, the room was beautiful with an incredible view, and the location can't be beat. If I had to complain about anything, the soundproofing wasn't super great and we had a neighbor that took showers at weird hours that we could hear loudly from our bed, but we had a fabulous time anyway. Would definitely recommend and stay again. ##### Amy Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ashley Jun 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Was a great little spot close to beach and restaurant.
