If you are looking for a peaceful place this is it. The ability to eat breakfast or dinner on a porch in nature was a huge plus. Also waking up with the huge skylight staring into the trees was nice.
We originally found Jay’s place looking for Santa Cruz (which is a quick drive) but discovered Capitola while we were there. Great location between the two.
Not in the hustle of any tourist traps, but close enough to enjoy them if you want!
