8/10 Very good

Ocean echo indeed
Inn nicely located within a stone's throw of the beach, and within walking distance of a few restaurants and shops. Its name reflects that one can hear the waves coming onto the shore.

Ivan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Ocean Echo is a delight in every way! The rooms are each so creatively designed with a cozy and welcoming feel. The staff is extremely helpful. I had to check in late my first night, but Gabby answered immediately when I called, providing clear directions for entry to my room. The gardens are beautiful and the proximity to the beach is a two minute walk!. All in all, Ocean Echo is an absolutely perfect choice for a getaway to the Santa Cruz area!

Cottage family love
Always love staying at cottages with my family. Short walk to a nice beach. Love the full kitchen and BBQ. Little noisy with the neighbors this trip. Thank you for the fan in the living space because it can get just a little warm Without it. We will be staying here again in the future.

Cozy, Comfy, Beachy
Cozy, comfy, clean, adorable inn steps from the beach. Great price for off-season, decent continental breakfast (please get better coffee though!) and a perfect little beach cove for surfers and dogs. We had a great time.

Very clean and convenient. We were just passing by, but if we have the chance, we will go back for a longer stay to enjoy the patio and ping-pong table.
