Find Beach Hotels in Santa Cruz

" family oriented place"

"We had a great experience definitely coming back next year! Such a wonderful hotel! Food service and cleanliness is 10/10"

"A+ hotel! My husband and I stayed at the Marriott Stellaris in November 2024, and again in July 2025 because of the hotel staff (and all of the amenities). The rooms are gorgeous, clean, and beds are comfortable. The staff, Rochelle, Jadon, Jackie, Niala, and Naomi all went above and beyond to make sure our stay was nothing short of exceptional! They could not do enough for us…and we appreciated all of their efforts. The friendliness, professionalism, and genuine care of those mentioned is what makes this hotel exceptional! This hotel is our favorite on the island (and we’ve stayed at a few others)…but we will only stay here from now on! There is NO REASON to “try” another hotel once you’ve stayed here! Truly exceptional! "

"Property was amazing although I did have to complain about room service not cleaning my room the first night and I had to sleep in a bed that I had accident spilled food in. Other than that food was amazing along with the service and the front desk made sure we didn’t have problems with room service again. So 100/10 would definitely recommend and have been recommending this resort to others."

"Very beautifull place. Would def be back again "

"Pristine beach"

"Great location and service for a family trip, easily walkable to restaurants and shops nearby Palm Beach. The rooms are pretty basic rooms that you would find at any Hyatt property, but you are more so paying for the amenities and location. "

"Nice room, shuttle service was convenient, beaches and pools were.bery nice, staff was nice as well"

"Great vacation! Beds comfortable, access to beach was amazing. Wish sitting area in rooms were more comfortable and modern. Overall staff was alway accommodating. Did bike tour and snorkeling with Zep and Steve had an amazing time. Love being up close to sea turtles. "
