Great location!!! Near shops, food and the beach!! Parking wasn’t great. The garage is really small and very difficult to get into because it’s in an alley. Parking on the street isn’t great either but there are spots if you are lucky. Home was very clean and nice!! Just as listed. Had a great time

My wife and two daughters (2 and 6) came here the first weekend of June 2026. It was our first stay as a family near the beach. The property really exceeded my expectations! It felt clean and spacious and much more modern than most of the other places we had looked at in that area. It's an easy, short, flat walk to the beach which was excellent for our young kids. As is noted in the listing and other reviews, the parking garage is pretty tight to squeeze into, but I was able to get my RAV4 in without too much trouble, and the dedicated parking space was absolutely essential for a busy summer weekend in Capitola where street parking looked nearly impossible to find. I would definitely stay here again if we come back to Capitola.

Location with comfort

This was our second stay at this property. The two bedroom, two bathroom works perfectly for my husband, me and our adult son. The flat is comfortable and beautifully furnished. We love the location, it is so convenient to everywhere we want to be. The convenience of a garage and parking pass is a big plus to this property. Looking forward to staying here again!

Clean and great location

This property was very clean and in a great location, right on the main street in Capitola Village. Parking was easy with the provided tag, there was a garage but it is pretty small and the approach was really tight so we chose to park on the street.

Gem location and rental for cute Capitola

You cant beat this darling rental with a row of windows facing the cute town. The location gives you quick access to coffee, shops, the ocean, a small market and nearly every type of restaurant you could ask for. The place is well appointed with everything you need and we slept great on the comfortable beds. Having your own porch to enjoy the mornimg sun and designated parking wete bonuses. You’ll love it here for your next Capitola getaway.

Vrbo Delivers

Not only was I pleasantly surprised at the last minute accommodations but the location, cleanliness and comfort provided by the Vrbo listing and property manager was only surpassed by the incredibly reasonable price. If you’re looking to stay somewhere and are tired of hotels gouging and inconsistent service, consider Vrbo for your needs and peace of mind. Top notch customer service!

Great location near beach, cute place!

Really cute condo that is walking distance to all of the shops and the Capitola beach! You won't have to look for parking you can walk to everything and it is super close! You can actually see the shops from the unit's windows. The place was very clean and stocked fairly well with all of the basics you would need. We had four of us staying there and it was very spacious. The only drawback is the parking garage is very tight and tricky to park in, but we managed it. And only one parking spot, any overflow cars have to use their pass to park in public parking lot. I would stay there again and highly recommend this place!
