We found this lovely spot just by chance. Our room-#17 has a great view of the pier and beach. It is a old fashioned wonderful room. I was told it was built in the early 1800's. Things are clean and they serve great coffee in the morning. Friendly nice staff. Lucky me.

We had made a reservation in advance for one night and ending up staying two nights. The Inn staff was very accommodating. The room was quaint with an ocean view and a community outdoor porch for relaxing. We ate all our meals in the bar.

After spending the day on the beach with our granddaughters age 6 and 3 we were just too tired to make the 3 hour drive home. So on the spur of the moment we decided to get a hotel and drove into the parking lot of Casablanca Inn & Bistro. What a delight. The staff was so friendly and helpful.... More

Really nice motel across the road from the pier in Santa Cruz.Kitchenette was perfectly set up to prepare the fresh swordfish that we bought from the pier fishmonger. Rockette salad and horseradish cream. Yum. Room was very well appointed, spacious and clean. Breakfast was laid out upstairs on the balcony - perfect!
