Make your next event the soiree of your dreams by hosting at the Dream Inn Santa Cruz! With inspiring meeting spaces and easily accessible team building, the Dream Inn will have you sleeping easy while planning your next event.

Sun, surf, sleep, and meet! At Dream Inn Santa Cruz, a wetsuit is the only essential attire. Enjoy the tranquility of the waves during your general session, then grab a board and ride them until sunset! With breathtaking views like these, attendees will stay inspired and excited for the day’s events.

On that note, it is our pleasure to introduce the COVE, a brand new private meeting and dining space in the Dream Inn Santa Cruz’s Jack O’Neill Restaurant! Depending on your type of meeting, open the doors for sweeping views of the Monterey Bay or close them up for privacy. Plus, all-inclusive pricing is available! Your attendees will also enjoy getting a taste of the Monterey Bay. As a member of the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch Program, you can trust that all the delicious seafood offered at the Dream Inn is certified safe and sustainable. Meeting and eating right on the ocean is a Dream Inn specialty!

Looking to switch it up for your evening presentation? Just a thirty-second walk from the lobby of the Dream Inn Santa Cruz, you’ll find another one of our favorite ocean-side venues for screenings, presentations, and immersive experiences… the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary Exploration Center! Their presentation room is perfect for surround sound screenings, and has an exciting learning center that can offer an ocean view reception or meeting in their fully outfitted classroom!

Back at the Dream Inn, you’ll definitely spy groups hitting the waves for a surf lesson! Feeling inspired? Rally your team for a two hour surf lesson with Club Ed International Surf School, Camps, and Rentals. They’ll introduce surfing fundamentals, etiquette, safety, and riding techniques that are sure to leave your team feeling empowered on and off the waves! They offer private group sessions with a crew of four or more and larger group discounts are available upon request.

As the day comes to a close, take your team out on the town for an evening at Soif Wine Bar & Merchants. Located in downtown Santa Cruz, Soif Wine Bar is the perfect venue for a wine-centric customizable event. Host a private dinner in the wine shop, on their private balcony, or inside the restaurant for a full banquet! Your attendees will love the downtown scene and easy access from the Dream Inn.

Need we say more? It doesn’t get any dreamier than this!
