The Peacock Suite with balcony and view
($200 low season, $225 high season)

Richly decorated, spacious, plush oriental carpets and a sitting area with a leather wingback chair and ottoman - If that's your idea of the perfect Victorian B&B in the Santa Cruz - Monterey region of California's central coast, then this is your suite.

Your second floor suite features a Victorian inspired four-poster king bed, with antique dresser and closet space. You also have a private full bath with a Victorian claw-foot tub-and-shower, towel warmer and overhead pull-chain commode. Here's a bonus. You have a private hallway leading to an outdoor balcony. From there, view the fertile Pajaro Valley and surrounding hills.

Of course, hair dryer, cable and VCR are among many included amenities.
