We have just returned from our trip to California where we spent 4 nights at Dan’s place. I can safely say we had an absolutely fantastic time there and in Capitola generally. Having been on the move quiet a lot for the previous week and a bit it was so nice to chill out and the condo and Capitola were perfect.
The condo itself is well furnished, clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The parking was brilliant saving any hassles in that department, especially as we didn’t leave the Capitola area for three days meaning the car stayed were it was. The condo is a five minute walk to the beach and numerous restaurants (Paradise Beach Grille and Avenue Cafe recommended by us). On one day we went to the Santa Cruz Boardwalk which was a ten / fifteen minute drive.
The internet did drop out for a day - I suspect because of all forest fire initiated power cuts - which wasn’t an issue for us but Dan still got it sorted in quick time.
Kayaking with sea otters in the kelp field off Capitola beach was a great high light of the stay.
