If you want sleek and fancy, this is not for you. If you want warm, historic, and lovely, there’s no better place. I’ve been coming here for 20 years or more, and have always felt welcome and taken care of. Adriana and Constantin are Old World hosts in an increasingly cold world. And location could not be more perfect, between downtown and the beach.

Very interesting building with lots of history. Room was a good size and shower was really large. Breakfast was simple but good. Fresh fruits with scrambled eggs and toast or croissant. Fresh juice, coffee and tea. Really close to the boardwalk, well within walking distance. Would definitely recommend.

This bed and breakfast was a hidden gem. The owners Constantin and Adriana deserve all the praise they have gotten for setting up such a cozy bed and breakfast (with delicious breakfast included!) in such a prime location in Santa Cruz. We were just 2 blocks from the boardwalk, a few blocks to downtown, and there was free parking! I would stay here again and again

My wife and I loved this B&B. It’s a beautiful home with interesting decore. Breakfast was delicious and the owners/hosts were flexible about the time and also flexible on check out time. Being near the beach it’s cool in the evenings. The house doesn’t have air conditioning which is typically fine. It was very warm during our July visit but with the windows opened, the room cooled off nicely after sunset even though the (Apricot) room got afternoon sun. If I was choosing again, I would opt for a room on the first floor.

Staff was amazing, Adriana and Seth were very hospitable and super kind/very nice to talk to. Adriana explained some history with the artwork that is displayed around the home, Seth gave great recommendations for nearby things to do. Breakfast was really nice. Room was very clean and tidy. Very charming place to stay, I initially wanted a hotel but was very impressed by what the stay was like here. Would recommend for a nice weekend getaway to Santa Cruz.

This property is a delightful historic gem very close to the Santa Cruz boardwalk. The owners are kind and generous and the home was quiet and peaceful. Art decorates the walls, bright windows open to the beautiful green spaces outdoors. We would recommend anyone visit when they are in town.
