Compassion Flower Inn, Santa Cruz, California
The Compassion Flower Inn is located in eclectic downtown Santa Cruz in the heart of the thriving retail, restaurant, and entertainment district, only a short walk to beaches, the wharf, and the boardwalk. Guests love the convenience of walking around downtown or to the beach.
The inn is a beautifully restored 1860's Gothic Revival Victorian with four romantic guest rooms. The friendly owners, Andrea Tischler and Maria Mallek, took three years to restore and decorate the home. Maria, an artist who beautifully transforms whatever she touches, has delicately painted each room. All guests are treated to a visual fantasy of faux finishes, unique stencils, mosaic art, and beautiful period furnishings.
