The Islander Motel
522 Ocean Street, Santa Cruz, CA 95060, United States of America – Great location - show map
The location was perfect for what I needed. The room was quiet and clean. Staff were extremely helpful.

Clean, no frills room. Perfect for a short stay where you will out and about most of the day.

Our room at The Islander Motel last night was quiet, super clean, and had a really nice bed. It may not have everything some of the newer hip hotels have (indoor pool, exercise facility, bar, etc.) but as far as comfort, quality, and attention to detail go it’s as good or better — it just costs quite a bit less.

was very clean...staff was great... great location from the beach and other sites in Santa cruz

I loved the separate rooms. Very clean. Coffee was very good.

Great location close to the boardwalk and beaches very nice clean rooms.

Easy access both from the highway and to downtown. Romm was clean.

really comfy beds. room was a bit small but doable. enjoyed staying here. my family will stay here again.

clean,no trouble getting extra towels, plenty of outlets, beds ok for hotel bed, parking easy.

I loved the furnished bathroom and clean environment. The amenities were functional and very much appreciated. The staff was exceptional; our hotel desk clerk did everything she could to make the check-in process smooth.
