The view , the kind hospitality , also how the beach was right off the road

Doe United States of America

The location was stunning! A short 1 minute walk from a secluded beach cove, with an overlook spot one street over. HIGHLY recommend.

Victory United States of America

Lovely cozy and comfy beach cottage! We loved everything about our stay! The private BBQ on our balcony was a great bonus! 🤩

Michiel South Africa

This property is in a great location, including easy access to the beach (you can see it from the patio). The property includes several shared outdoor areas and a bbq. We were in the Gull cottage- this cottage is suited well for a couple. Having a third person or child would make it tight for sleeping and getting around inside. The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating.

Christine United States of America

The cottages are adorable and very clean. The proximity to the beach is unreal and the staff was so kind and accommodating!

Terra United States of America

The staff were friendly and helpful Room was spotless and location was perfect for our needs. Love the beach at end of street

Paige United States of America

Very quiet and very clean. The kitchenette had everything that we needed, the oven is a little dated, but it works. The beach is a 2 minute walk, and it is very nice and secluded, even during covid. Location is great, in between Capitola and Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. Though we did go to the beach in Capitola, it was quite crowded. The secluded beach was definitely more comfortable in that aspect.

Kristen Japan

Excellent location, next to pretty beach. Room very clean, lots of outdoor seating. We will be back

Tomislav United States of America

The view was amazing and accessibility to beach was wonderful

Shawnra United States of America

The staff were very friendly. The location is perfect, in between Capitola and Santa Cruz and right off Sunny Cove Beach. The decor was great. This place is very charming.

One of our best sellers in Santa Cruz! Built in the early 1900s, Ocean Echo Inn & Beach Cottages is located on a quiet cul-de-sac that ends at Monterey Bay's unique Sunny Cove Beach. The inn's cul-de-sac location minimizes traffic and provides for a relaxing and safe beach stay. The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk is 10 minutes’ drive away.

The inn is centrally located between downtown Santa Cruz and Capitola. Roaring Camp Railroad, Henry Cowell Redwood Forest and University of California Santa Cruz are within 20 minutes' drive of Ocean Echo Inn & Beach Cottages. There are also many great wineries in nearby and Santa Cruz schedules great events throughout the year. Singer-songwriters Neil Diamond and John Denver frequented Ocean Echo Inn & Beach Cottages and wrote some of their most beloved songs here.

Ocean Echo Inn offers rooms in the main house. These rooms have flat-screen TVs, refrigerators, and microwaves. Cottages surrounding the house also offer fully-equipped kitchens. Select cottages have private patios and balconies with ocean views. BBQ facilities are available for guest use. Select cottages are friendly for small dogs (an additional fee applies).

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.2 for a two-person trip.
