Top hotels in Harvey West
Dream Inn Santa Cruz
AC is very loud. Staff would not accommodate either early check in nor late checkout. The room bathroom tile had missing sections of grout.

Seacliff Inn Aptos, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
The grounds were very nice. There was no need to charge $3 for bottled water and charge for Netflix. The room’s cost should easily have covered that.

La Bahia Hotel and Spa
The hotel is stunning. Beautiful rooms and fantastic staff. I will say I was not a fan of the breakfast or cocktails at Low Tide. I definitely recommend going outside the hotel for food. My favorite place for brunch in Santa Cruz is definitely Mad Yolk and for cocktails check out Cooper & Front!
