La Bahia Hotel and Spa

La Bahia Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful Hotel/Resort. Everything was clean, actually immaculate. The views were stunning and we loved sitting out on our balcony and listening to the ocean, birds, and even sea lions. The pool and pool staff were great. We were there Wednesday through Friday (in August), and the amount of small children increased as we got closer to the weekend. Take from that what you want. I did not get the chance to enjoy the spa maybe next time. The location was perfect, in between the wharf and the boardwalk. This was an amazing and relaxing stay and we plan to return."

"This renovated property is across the street from the beach and a block from the Santa Cruz pier. It is blocks from the train that takes you to the redwoods. It couldn’t be any better of a location. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend for a visit."
