"Hotel Bayview
This establishment sits on a portion of the Mexican Grant "Rancho de Aptos" conveyed to Rafael Castro by Jose Figueroa in 1833. The hotel was built in 1870 by Jose Arano, a French Basque who had married Castro's youngest daughter Maria de las Augustia. It was moved 150 feet west in 1953 and remains today the oldest hotel in Santa Cruz County.
Dedicated with tender loving care by Monterey Viejo Chapter, E Clampus Vitus. November 2, 1974" (
