Top Pacific Garden Mall Hotel Reviews

Marea Sol Hotel

8/10 Good

"Clean, cute, convenient, comfortable beds, flat pillows, and no luggage carts - which made it difficult for us traveling by motorcycle. We paid for a partial ocean view and to be fair you could see the ocean if went out on the balcony and looked real hard :)."

Seaside Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Love this place great location very clean . No weird smell and loved the room being inside the building made us feel safer"

Bay Front Inn Santa Cruz

8/10 Good

"The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well air-conditioned. Parking was difficult as expected from other reviews. I went into the office to check out, but there was no staff at the desk. I waited and even called the phone number, but got no answer. Otherwise, it’s a great location, and I highly recommend!"

The Aqua Pacific Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Peaceful, restful and the Jacuzzi tub made it all possible 😃"

La Bahia Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful"

Casablanca On The Beach

10/10 Excellent

"customer service"

Hotel Solares

10/10 Excellent

"Property was nice, clean, prefect for our one night stay exactly all we needed, the balcony was very cute touch to rooms. The secruity hold of 250$ was a bit much."

Riverside Inn & Suites Santa Cruz

8/10 Good

"Initially thought the hotel was too noisy, but then realized the windows were open. Ha! Packages of earplugs were placed on the nightstands which was a nice touch. Hotel is located on a well traveled intersection, so getting in & out of the parking lot was annoying. Overall, it’s another older Santa Cruz hotel in walking distance to the boardwalk and beach. It served our purpose for our quick weekend trip."
