Out of Office: Get away to Santa Cruz's new La Bahia Hotel + Spa.

Rest + relax with VIP treatment.

Crowned with a historic bell tower, Santa Cruz's new La Bahia Hotel & Spa is a celebration of one of California’s most idyllic and storied coastal towns.

In the late 1800s, Santa Cruz became a go-to for those on holiday, ushering in a casino, Pleasure Pier (today's Boardwalk), and a burgeoning surf culture. Main Beach became home to California's first public saltwater bathhouses, including the iconic Dolphin Bathhouse and Neptune Baths—both inspiration for the spa at La Bahia Hotel.

The luxurious, newly opened resort blends this bygone era with eclectic design and a contemporary approach to hospitality—think unobstructed ocean views with a serene palette and Spanish patterns. The Spa at La Bahia redefines the area’s wellness offerings with a Moorish concept offering indoor and outdoor treatment rooms, a sauna overlooking Monterey Bay, two steam rooms, and a rooftop zen deck.

With its enviable location on Main Beach, the hotel is minutes away from some of California’s best attractions on land and water.
