Summary:

Capitola Seaside Studio ~Enjoy panoramic ocean views from your cozy retreat!



The Space:

Welcome to Capitola Seaside Studio, your personal sanctuary nestled in the heart of Capitola, California's oldest seaside resort town. Situated directly across from the main beach, our third-floor studio offers an unparalleled panoramic view of the ocean, Capitola wharf, and the mesmerizing beachfront.



The beachy vibe of our studio effortlessly blends with its clean, simple decor, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and relaxation. Wake up in the plush comfort of a queen-sized bed, and let the first sight of the morning be the sun-kissed waves playing against the shoreline. Savor a cup of coffee on the balcony as you absorb the spectacle of a vibrant beach town awakening to the day.



The studio boasts a fully equipped kitchen complete with an oven, stove, microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker, and a cozy dining table, ideal for whipping up a quick breakfast or a leisurely meal while enjoying the beach view.



Please note that parking is limited to one car. However, with the condo's central location, you'll find that many of Capitola Village's attractions and amenities are within walking distance, making it convenient to explore the area on foot.



Maximum occupancy of two, strictly enforced.  Shared coin-operated laundry room.  There are 2 beach chairs and a beach umbrella provided.



Capitola, reminiscent of a Mediterranean village, is a picturesque, quaint, and vibrant destination year-round. Spend your days exploring the eclectic mix of boutiques, wine-tasting rooms, galleries, and surf shops, or take a relaxing stroll along the beach. Embrace the opportunity for adventure and learn to surf, paddleboard, or rent a boat to explore the bay.



'Capitola Seaside Studio' is not just a vacation rental; it's an experience, a retreat where the rhythm of the ocean enhances the tranquility of your stay. Book your escape today to this seaside haven, where the beach is your front yard and relaxation is a way of life.

Location location location, it doesn't get any better than this. We were worried about the bed ( being a Murphy bed ),but it was very comfortable and the pillows were perfect. The parking ended up being great, but we could see how that could end up being a problem if it was fully booked.the elevator was great, just wished we would have known about it before we unloaded the car. Overall we were very happy

Excellent location by the beach - it was nice to listen to the surf at night. Walking distance to several nice restaurants and bars. I was a little concerned about the parking when we booked the property, but it turns out that I shouldn't have been as we had no problems during out stay. Great place for a weekend beach getaway!

Had a last minute Family matter to attend and this location worked perfectly for our situation plus it’s been awhile since we have been to the coast. It was relaxing hearing the ocean waves watching the surfers show up at 4 in the morning, lol clean & comfortable cottage. Hope to rebook someday soon.

Great Views and super fun location.

We had a wonderful stay at the property. It is a perfect location to visit Capitola. We spent the evenings just sitting on the two patios and watching the city go by as the sun set in the background. I would highly recommend the property to anyone. We have stayed at many places in Capitola and this was by far our favorite. You could not be more in the heart of everything than here.
