“The Mediterranean design stands out, especially given its proximity to Santa Cruz Beach and the Boardwalk; inside, the heated pool is a genuine draw. While some past renovations are evident, the personalized service from the owners seems to make up for it. It's a practical choice for families and those traveling with pets.”
