New Bed and Breakfast is a 'Pleasure'

Visitors to Santa Cruz, Calif., have an enticing new choice for upscale accommodations with the opening of the Pleasure Point Inn.

Overlooking the Monterey Bay, the Inn's beautiful surroundings combine with its distinctively modern, elegant and comfortable ambiance to create a rare find for travelers.

Owners Tom and Claire provide guests with unexpected amenities that cannot be found in most other accommodations. Hand-painted wall tiles in every bathroom, private patios, gas fireplaces, hardwood floors, down comforters and custom-made furnishings are among the special amenities in each guest room. Additionally, some rooms feature heated bathroom floor tiles and Jacuzzi bathtubs.

"Our concept was to combine the uniqueness and personalized service typically found in bed and breakfast inns with the modernity, privacy and prime location of upscale hotels," Claire said. "We created something new and I feel it will be ideal for pleasure and business travelers who want a hassle-free place to unwind."

In the mornings, guests can enjoy an expanded continental breakfast while viewing the ocean from the spacious dining room or the outdoor rooftop deck. Designated as a space for all guests, the rooftop deck features an eight-person hot tub, tables, chaise lounges and a heated gas lamp for all-day use.
