My family of 4 really enjoyed our stay in this beach cottage. It was our first time in Capitola and we really enjoyed this quaint little beach town. The location was perfect since you are close enough to hear the waves and walk to the beach, but isolated enough to not hear the crowds and cars. We also drove to Santa Cruz and Monterey during our stay. Parking can be a challenge during peak hours or days, but even if you park a little further away, it’s a short distance to walk. The cottage is VERY clean with updated furniture. The sofa bed is an American Leather sleeper and SUPER comfy! The kitchen was well supplied and there were plenty of towels and linens. James was a great host - very responsive and accommodating prior and during our stay. Thank you James! I would definitely stay here again!
