A Sixties mid-rise just off the boardwalk that got the full mid-century modern boutique treatment, bold colors and vintage geometry intact. The Dream Inn is a 165-room beachfront hotel that manages to feel like Santa Cruz distilled: sun-bleached, a little retro, and not trying too hard about any of it. The Michelin Guide has it among its selected hotels, which tracks for a place that finally gave this stretch of California coast the beach hotel it deserved.
