Cute cottage in walkable neighborhood

This place exceeded our expectations. The cottage itself was full of vintage, beachy charm and the location was really convenient. Everything you could want/ need in the village was a short walk away.

Parking was a nightmare over the weekend. The heater didn’t work, luckily there was a space heater in the closet. Cute cottage, close to beach but packed in with a lot of small vacation rentals. Area is a bit noisy.

Spring break 2025!

We had a great experience!! The short walk to the beach, shops, mini mart, made this a wonderful location. We were able to bring our pups which makes this a perfect family vacation. The property manager was very involved and communicated quickly if we had a question. Definitely recommended!!

Nice location but needs to be cleaned better.

Quaint property in a very busy location. Enjoyed the closeness to downtown Capitola but there is drunken foot traffic late at night. Parking is definitely difficult and/or expensive. House was very cozy and comfortable.

Great location and cute cottage

Walking distance to everything in Capitola. Cottage was clean and check in easy. There is not a lot of privacy. The one bedroom had a shade and curtains. The futon is not very comfortable, but everything else was amazing! Fully stocked kitchen. Would stay here again!

Sweet cottage in perfect location

We absolutely loved staying at this cozy spot right in the heart of Capitola Village. It had everything we needed and fit our family of 3 + a pup perfectly. The host was super responsive and all went smoothly. The only drawback is that the hot water smells a bit when you first turn it on. Not sure how you would fix that though. We plan to stay here again!

This is a great spot for 2 people, but the apartment, it is a 2 apartment house with a shared wall, is a bit small for 4 people. The listing says there is a bedroom, but it is really a small porch area that was converted into a bed area. The location is awesome, but the parking situation is pretty challenging, especially if you have 2 cars.

Charming bungalow in a perfect location

Great location where you can walk to everything. Very charming property, just the right size for a couple and dog. Fair pet policy that made it easy to bring our dog along for a last minute weekend getaway. Parking lot across the street has plenty of spots but no overnight parking so we kept our eyes peeled for a street spot, once we got one we didn’t touch the car for the rest of the weekend. It’s an older property so minor things like sticky doors/windows and an old fashioned oven might not be everyone’s cup of tea but I thought it added to the charm!

Perfect for our small group

We had 3 people for just a 2 night stay and found this the perfect location. The sleeping area is just the converted living space, so it has the feel of a big sleepover party. Would have been too cramped for more people or if we were spending more time just hanging out at the house, but for us it was perfect. We loved being walking distance to the village shops in Capitola. There is a lovely river walk path that goes down to the village and the beach. We enjoyed the local restaurants, arcade, and shopping, plus walking along the beach. This spot is also easy driving distance into Santa Cruz and other neighborhoods. The lack of a dedicated parking spot was occasionally inconvenient, but wouldn't deter us from booking again. Overall this is a great location for a small group who plans to be out and about most of the day.

Just about perfect

Very happy with everything. I would consider doing it again in the near future. There were some small items that need attention but nothing that would make me not want to return again. It might bother some but not me. Door to bathroom stick a little; kitchen faucet did not swing but had hose so no problem. Easy fix. Worth the money.

Great beach getaway.

Conveniently located near the river and close to the village and beach. Flexible arrangement of sleeping options. Dog friendly. Clean and well appointed. Had everything we needed, except for a second working fan to cool the inside in the afternoon. I would certainly stay there again.
