Testimonials

We recently had our wedding reception here and we are SO happy with how things turned out. First of all, the property is beautiful and maintained well. When it came to wedding planning, Seema was there for us from start to finish. She helped coordinate food, music, decorations, etc. On the day of the event, Seema was so busy taking care of things and making sure everything was going according to schedule - she didn't even get to eat! That's how dedicated she was to making sure our special day was stress free - and it was. She is very easy to work with and we couldn't have picked a better person to help us with our special day. Thank you Seema!!

Seema,

Thank you so much again for making Brookes and Jonathan’s baby shower a success! They said it was an amazing party and they were so happy! I really thought it went beautifully too and the guests had fun as well. Thank you again for letting us use your venue for our special day! You were wonderful and we appreciate everything!

Sincerely,

- Kelly

Dear Janeen,

After a couple of weeks in my son’s family, I am now back in Switzerland. I would like to thank you once more for you warm welcome on June 8th when I spent one night at your charming Flora Vista Inn. It has been a nice experience. I appreciated very much your receptiveness in explaining thoroughly your organization.

Have a nice and successful summer.

With my best regards.

The Flora Vista Inn is a historic charmer! Innkeeper Seema warmly welcomed us to her family's Inn in the peaceful, bucolic countryside. The gathering room is inviting, as well as the kitchen where Seema prepared our delicious breakfast, which is included in the room package. Our room was a comfy, soft place for us to decompress. The bathroom was sparkling clean and the ample size jacuzzi is a relaxing respite. The garden was lovely with a bonus of a clay tennis court! We especially enjoyed Seema's sharing the Inn's history as it is an exact replica of Abraham Lincoln's Springfield home. We look forward to our return stay at the Inn next month!

My husband and I stayed at the lovely, peaceful very relaxed Flora Vista Inn last weekend. We had a truly wonderful experience. As soon as we began our drive Seema contacted us to see if we need anything special to make us comfortable. When we arrived Seema greeted us and showed us around the Inn, a feeling of tranquility comes over you at the Flora Vista Inn. It is so relaxing. We stayed in the Wisteria room a charming blue room with lovely views. Their are a family of adorable bunnies in the garden which are fun to watch. Their are several beaches close by and towels are provided. Breakfast is casual and may be taken inside or out. My husband loved the eggs perfectly scrambled with cheddar cheese. We both slept 2 hours longer than usual, this B&B is so relaxed and comfortable. We cannot wait to go back!

I can’t say enough nice things about Flora Vista; especially Seema & Janeen. They made our wedding seriously magical! From the beginning Janeen was so helpful. Her creative ideas helped to make our day special and perfect. Janeen & Seema are so knowledgeable and quick to help.

We rented Flora Vista’s Victorian home and spent a fabulous weekend with our bridal party and family. This was amazing. This was the best weekend of our lives.


I would highly recommend Flora Vista for weddings and any special event you can think of.

I will be back for an anniversary for sure!

I had a really hard time finding a venue that was unique and near the coast. I fell in LOVE with Flora Vista. This property is private and allowed me to create a memorable day for Bill and I.  

The views of the fields and flowers were the added bonus. We were less than a mile to the beach for photos. 

The house at Flora Vista was the perfect place to get ready. I had a sneak peek out the window of everything getting setup. The staff was amazing and were on top of everything. I never had to worry.

Bill and I did our first look on the second-floor balcony. Such a romantic spot. The property has some amazing places to take photographs.  

I would highly recommend Flora Vista to anyone for their wedding.

We had our Reception at Flora Vista and it truly was a dream come true. We did a Beach Wedding at Manresa State Beach. Our guests were shuttled between the beach and the venue.

The venue is so beautiful. They have two large fountains and beautiful views of flowers. Our guests 
said that this was one of the best weddings they had ever been to. Everyone at Flora Vista made it an incredible day.

Thank you to everyone at Flora Vista,

Flora Vista was the perfect size for our October wedding with 150 guests. I wanted everything to be outdoors - ceremony, cocktails, dinner, dancing - and this was the only place in Santa Cruz County where I could have it all at reasonable price.

We were able to bring in a licensed caterer of our choice. What a savings. Flora Vista made recommendations that helped us save.  

Janeen helped us put together a perfect plan for our ceremony, cocktail reception, dinner and dancing. The location itself is gorgeous to begin with, and with our tiny personal touches, we had magic. Everything ran smoothly, and our day was perfect thanks to the hard work of everyone at Flora Vista.

We will tell everyone to get married here.

We had our rehearsal dinner at Flora Vista, and wow, was it incredible!  From the start, I knew this was an incredible venue to host a rehearsal dinner, and Janeen was incredibly responsive and helpful, not to mention how naturally beautiful the entire venue is. Thank you so much for hosting us, we had the best night ever!

We celebrated my mother's 60th birthday at this gorgeous place and couldn't be happier!

At Flora Vista they let you bring in your caterer and music. We had a live band and set everything outside. We strung lights for the evening. It was just perfect.

The staff at Flora vista were very attentive to our requests. We danced the night away. 
I would totally recommend this place.

My mom was so happy!
