The check in was simple and my code worked perfectly every time. It was clean and cutely decorated. It was close the everything. I parked my car one time for all three days and didn't have to use it at all. The owners responded immediately to questions that I had. The beach is literally 10 steps away from the front door and the steps to the wharf weren't much further than that. I would stay here again over and over.

Such a relaxing weekend with our family of 5. The bunk bed room was perfect for all the kids. We loved waking up early to walk the beach and watch the sun rise. Also, sitting out front and listening to the waves at night. So quiet during those times. We had friendly neighbors during our stay and zero complaints for the whole weekend. Personally, I like a more soft pillow top mattress and softer pillows (I brought mine), but the beds were fine and we all slept great after a day of playing at the beach and walking around the shops. Location is perfection!

Our stay at this beach house was truly special. Being right on the beachfront made for an unforgettable experience, and the home had everything we could possibly need. From beach chairs and an umbrella for relaxing by the water to an electric vacuum for quick tidying, every detail was thoughtfully considered. The kitchen was also exceptionally well stocked, with everything needed for cooking and even baking.The host was wonderful to work with. Communication was excellent from start to finish and when we had a small mishap during our stay, they were incredibly gracious and understanding, which made me feel completely at ease.One of the highlights was meeting the host’s niece on the beach. It was clear that this family takes great pride in their home and genuinely cares about their guests’ experience.The only thing to note is that parking can feel a little challenging at first, especially if you’re bringing more than one vehicle. However, once I got the rhythm of it, it almost became a game and was manageable.I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, well equipped beachfront getaway in Capitola.

About the host

Host profile image
My family and I have been so fortunate to have had this turquoise gem in our family for more that 80 years!

Why they chose this property

One of the things that makes this space special is to be just footsteps from the sand. Whether it’s having a cup of coffee and listening to the ocean wave, watching your kids play in the sand or having a glass of wine as the sun goes down, listening to the music from across the way in the village.

What makes this property unique

One of the things I love about our space is that you can park your car for the week or weekend and never leave. Just a short walk over the little bridge and you’re in the village for a delicious dinner at a variety of restaurants, fun shopping, and of course, a scoop of ice ice cream from our favorite ice cream shops.

The family, friendly beach offers, boogie boarding, surf lessons for the beginners, walked out on the pier and endless hours in the sun playing in the ocean waves.
