The room was large, well furnished, and quiet and the owners were lovely people. Continental breakfast was excellent with pastries from Gayles, yogurt, fresh fruit, juices, Numi teas and good coffee.

“It's the little things....”

Reviewed 5 May 2013

We really liked this place. So often we pay a lot of money for coastal places and leave feeling that it wasn't worth it. This place was different. The room was very large, well decorated, and had a few extra little things that I appreciated. The bathroom floor was heated! How cool is that. There was mirrow that was magnified... More

“Nice boutique inn”

Reviewed 15 April 2013

We stayed at the Bella Notte for a quick weekend getaway. It's a charming little place. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I guess it was converted to a nice hotel from a former motel, but once in a room, 'motel' never crosses your mind. The room we stayed in (#3) was very spacious. The bathroom was luxurious, and...

We had a very short visit to Santa Cruz, and only spent about 10 hours at this hotel, but it was one of the most comfortable and joyous lodging experiences I have ever experienced. The bed was extremely comfortable and the bed linens felt absolutely wonderful. We thought we would wake up really early for a zip line adventure, but... More

Great location, beautiful rooms, very clean and very close to the beach. There are restaurants and a cafe within walking distance and it's less than 15 minutes from the boardwalk and downtown. Although it's on a major thoroughfare, the rooms were very quiet. We did have an issue with the room, but the management took care of it. They were... More
