Location and Ease for a perfect get-away!!

we were traveling from Boston for a winter holiday with our 16-year-old twins. Capitola was the perfect location for us to enjoy California at its most relaxed and fun! The cottage has everything you need for your stay. But the gym of this cottage is location. Three minute walk to downtown Capitola means you can run in to town for coffee, wine tasting, shopping or a sandy walk on the beach… The community is welcoming and engaging. Will be back. That’s for sure.

Great Capitola cottage!

We loved staying at this place. Cozy, comfortable, so close to Capitola Village shops, restaurants and beach. Nice, quiet neighborhood. Well stocked kitchen and bathroom. It took us some time to figure out the parking situation because the parking spot adjacent to the property was taken most of the weekend. But the nearby public lot next to the police station was fine for all day and overnight parking. We just had to remember to feed the meter between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. We did not use the small upstairs loft, so the place was perfect for the two of us. My only comment would be that I would have liked screens on a window or two so we could enjoy some airflow without letting bugs in. Overall though, a great place to stay!

Charming beach bungalow

This was a very pretty and clean little bungalow. The renovations are nice and have smartly retained many charms of a vintage beach house making it a cheerful and happy place for me and my mom. We were comfortable sleeping in the bed and on the fold-out couch. The upper loft seemed very warm and took a fair amount of coordination to get in and out of so, nobody tried sleeping there but kids might get a kick out of it. The shower is nicely lit, clean and powerful, I really loved that part. Check-in was easy and communication was good. The town is thriving and we had great food and fun shopping. We found parking just a few blocks from the bungalow, two times, after looking for only about 5-10 minutes. The little town can get crowded sometimes but is very special in all the charm it has to offer. Overall we are very pleased with our stay.

A Charming Escape in Capitola Village

Nestled in the heart of Capitola Village, this bungalow is a true gem! From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted with warmth and charm. The location couldn't be more perfect, just steps away from the picturesque river walk and all the vibrant attractions of the village. The bungalow itself is simply delightful. Thoughtfully decorated with a beachy vibe, it instantly puts you in vacation mode. The cozy living space invites relaxation, whether you're lounging with a book or enjoying a movie night with loved ones. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need to whip up a delicious meal, and the dining area is ideal for enjoying leisurely breakfasts before heading out to explore. One of the highlights of our stay was the proximity to the river walk. Morning strolls along the water's edge were incredibly peaceful, offering a serene start to the day. And with the beach just a short walk away, we were spoiled for choice when it came to outdoor activities. The comfort of the bungalow extended to the bedrooms, where we found restful nights' sleep on cozy beds. Waking up refreshed and ready to seize the day was easy in such a tranquil environment. The host was fantastic, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a memorable stay. Their attention to detail and hospitality truly enhanced our experience. Overall, our stay at this bungalow exceeded all expectations. Thank you!

Very small

Though the place was just as pictured the pictures were deceiving. The square footage must be no bigger than 400 square feet. When it said it slept 6 I just imagined a larger area that this. The lost felt like attic space and no one was able to sleep there. You couldn’t stand up or even kneel in the space. There were three of us and one ended up having to get a hotel. It was clean and no major other than it felt like a Barbie house.

Small

The house is small but cute. There were mouse dropping in the loft and down stairs open room. The couch bed was usable. Could feel every spring. House is very affordable but isn’t kept up well. Talking with property manager was a waste of time. Just really didn’t care at all. Won’t stay here again

Perfect location

This is a cute property walking distance to town, so very convenient. We loved the back patio and the decor. It was stocked with all the necessary amenities. If you are traveling as a couple or small family, I would say this place is perfect. We were a couple and family of three (5 yo kid), so sleeping arrangements were not ideal - mainly because my husband and i didn’t want to climb into the loft - LOL. With the pullout couch it worked fine.

Great getaway

We enjoyed the proximity of the village and quiet of being on other side of village. The r couch bed away needs a new mattress you could feel the coils so the 16 year old slept on floor. The plants and home are cozy and close enough for us to walk everywhere.

Capitola River walk

The place was small but worked for us. Location was great, close to beach and river, shops and restaurants. We parked out truck and unloaded our bikes and we went everywhere on the bikes...store, Boardwalk, restaurants, beaches. Back porch was great for storing the four bikes. Walkway into place had beautiful plants. Placed was great, my grandson sleep up in the loft area and I sleep on the hide-a-bed (which was not comfortable at all). My son and daughter-in-law sleep on the bed in there room and I tried it one afternoon while everyone was out to the beach was very comfortable bed. Thank you for sharing your place with us for our get-a-away.
