We loved staying here! Can’t beat the location. Condo was clean, fully stocked with all necessities, pet friendly. Loved that it was pet friendly! There were several codes to remember to get into the garage, garage door gate and house but this did make us feel safer. Check in and out was super easy and Nancy was easy to communicate with. Will most definitely stay here again.

Capitola Condo

It is a great place to stay. The view is really nice and the condo is cozy and has everything a family needs for a fun stay- 30 second walk to the beach, and the new wharf. The only draw back is the amount of traffic- cars coming in and out to let off kayaks starting early in the AM and going all day.

Great condo with beach view!

We were visiting from San Francisco, looking for a little beachfront condo to spend spring break, and did we hit the jackpot. This place is in a fantastic location, just steps from Capitola Beach. It's also nicely furnished and well stocked. We will definitely be staying here again.

Best location in Capitola Village!

My favorite vacation stay ever! I spent 32 days and loved every minute. Comfortable beds, great living space and the best balcony and view. Short walk to everything the village has to offer, right at the wharf and beach! I have already booked another stay!

This place was perfect. The location couldn’t be better—you’re literally 20 steps from the sand, and the views are absolutely breathtaking. We found ourselves not wanting to leave, just soaking it all in. The space was spotless and super comfortable. The beds were dreamy, and the heating worked perfectly when the temps dipped at night. A peaceful, cozy, beachside escape. We’d come back in a heartbeat.
