Great location!

Great spot! Everything is as advertised, very clean also! Short walk from Capitola’s downtown amenities. When they say parking is limited… they mean it! Tough for multiple families with multiple vehicles, but worth it!

This is a great house for a group or family trip to Capitola! Everything was very clean, and it is truly steps from the beach and downtown Capitola! We had a wonderful experience.

You can't beat the location for attending the annual beach festival. Just steps from the beach and pier, right downtown. Enough beach chairs for our group of 6 adults. Both indoor and outdoor stairway to upstairs was nice.

Lovely little beach house

Lovely little beach house had everything you need. The only thing I would say is for larger groups like us we were sick. It was a little cramped. The rooms are very small and it could use some new beds. The beds are very uncomfortable, but overall a cute little place

Great location but needs TLC

Location…. 10/10. House is in dire need of upgrades. The furniture is falling apart and taped together (and could be seen in photos provided in albums at the home dated 1998) , pillows and duvets stained, cramped closets and living spaces, kitchen counter peeling off. Communication was good. When I sent photos of stains, the did purchase 3 new bed duvets. When I told them a door was hanging on by 1 hinge, they sent a handyman within 24 hrs.

Worked out perfect

We came for a 16 year old birthday celebration and had kids, teens and adults in the house. The house was perfect for our 8 people (we didn't use the additional pull-out couch). Lots of stairs but the house has a built in child gate. House was clean and had everything extra you could need. Lots of beach towels, a couple of beach chairs, and games for the kids. Teens took the room upstairs with full bed and single bed. Kids and adults downstairs. Bathrooms had shampoo/conditioner and body wash for us to use. Location is wonderful. Nice beach in front of complex. Restaurants and shops are a very short distance so we could just come back to the house whenever we needed anything. Parking is a nightmare so keep that in mind when deciding how many cars you need to bring. The city website for parking is confusing. Make sure you pay attention. Everyone in my party was happy with our stay and we'd recommend staying here.
