Top Mitchell Cove Beach Hotel Reviews

Marea Sol Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property across from the beach and a short walk to the boardwalk. The rooms are extremely clean and updated nicely. The rooftop deck is comfortable and quiet. There is a coffee shop onsite and amazing food steps away. One of the best stays we have had. We will be back."

La Bahia Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"AMAZING! Wonderful beautiful resort!!"

Beachview Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome property right in the heart of it all!"

Casablanca On The Beach

8/10 Good

"This place all around was beautiful, the location is great. My only complaint was that our coffee maker was missing a piece and I let the front office know about it and instead of getting a new piece or new coffee maker they told me oh well nothing they can do about it. They have a coffee bar from 8-10am but we have a baby so our mornings start at 5am so not having a coffee maker in the room sucked."

Seaside Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"Very Clean room, helpful staff. Many shops near by and a 15 minute walk to the boardwalk ."

Ocean Front/Family house Santa Cruz on West Cliff

10/10 Excellent

"Good"

Mitchell's Cove Beach House

10/10 Excellent

"Mitchells Cove Beach House was perfect in every way. I liked the large family room where we enjoyed relaxing on the sofa and two comfortable chairs. There is a sliding door with access to the backyard. Easy in and out for the dogs. The kitchen had lots of counter space and was bright and nicely laid out next to the dining area and long table. I especially liked the home's layout. One of the bedrooms has it's own bath. The second bathroom was very nice with a bathtub/shower and long counter. Quiet neighborhood, walking distance to a beach. I felt comfortable staying here and would choose this home if I were to come back."

Iconic West Cliff with Views!

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect house to stay in for a girls' weekend! My friends stayed with me to celebrate a milestone birthday and the house provided a great setting for hanging out, eating, and playing games. I love that there was plenty of seating in the living room and dining room and plenty of dishes in the kitchen. The house was very clean and had plenty of blankets for the beds."

Spacious Open Floor Plan

10/10 Excellent
