Located on Cowell's beach, adjacent to the wharf and historic Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Dream Inn is ideal for exploring Santa Cruz and has views of Monterey Bay from every room.
Our beautifully appointed Santa Cruz hotel offers all the comforts you would expect from a Joie De Vivre hotel.
Joie De Vivre strives to have a positive impact on our community. Each of our hotels is dedicated to donating a minimum of $200 per guestroom per year to organizations in their communities. Examples of these donations include gift certificates for hotel stays or dinner for two at one of our restaurants, donating meeting space and food to a nonprofit for fundraising events or meetings, organizing an event to raise money for an organization, donating employee hours for time volunteered or cash donations.
As part of our philanthropic efforts at the Santa Cruz Dream Inn, we have partnered with Save Our Shores, a nonprofit organization promoting marine conservation through policy research, education and citizen involvement.
