Dream Inn Santa Cruz
Great location, cute beach themed rooms. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The walls are really thin though.

Chaminade Resort & Spa
Rooms were nice; beds were a little too firm. The pools are nice; there wasn’t a bar open at the pool but they had a service option although it took an hour to be delivered. The hiking paths were a fun thing to do.

Great hotel to stay if you want to be close to the Boardwalk. Second time staying here and our girls loved it! Breakfast included is always good to have when you travel with kids.
