I've stayed at the beach house 1-2 times a year for the past 4 years. I probably could branch out and see other parts of the world but this beautiful house keeps pulling me back. With the ocean view and the sound of the ocean at night and the choice of two well-appointed balconies, the front one with the ocean and the back one with the privacy and gorgeous whimsical landscaping and potted succulents. We enjoyed sitting around the little fires on both balconies on this visit. I love the eclectic decor, the cozy bedding and comfortable beds. We walk or take the available bikes down to Capitola often but If you want to stay in for dinner, everything you could need to cook a meal is there for you except the groceries. Don't bother packing beach chairs etc if you're planning a day at the beach, (great for limited car space) it's all there for you to use. I love that three of the bedrooms have their own bathrooms with 2 luxurious robes in each. And the hot tub is always warm and ready. The only bad part is having to leave.
