Tuscon vacation travelers

Everything was well stocked. We purchased a few things that enhanced our stay I noted with the property manager that the carpet really needs a deep dive cleaning. We would definitely stay again.

It was clean, spacious and exactly as advertised, which seemed almost too good to be true! We had a wonderful time there. It was very close to the beach, but tucked in a quiet neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle of the quaint but vibrant downtown. As advertised, the parking space was tight, but a medium size SUV could fit in nicely, and any parking in Capitola is a big bonus!!

Great location, great space

Myself, my son, my father and brother did a quick getaway from the East Bay. The location is excellent. Once you park the car, you never use it again to get to restaurants or the beach. The place itself is very clean, has just what you need to relax for a couple days just a few blocks from the ocean.

Perfect spot!

Ideal location to be a tourist and a local. The house is super clean and sparely decorated to slide right in and make it your own. The deck is blasting with sun all day, if it is out. Parking in the village is pretty amazing to have…or share with local visitors. We really enjoyed ourselves!!! Thank you

Great location. Nice little house

Location is fantastic. House is nice. Updated kitchen and bathrooms, nice deck. Only drawback for me was the parking situation did not fit my full size truck so I had to find another location to park. A little inconvenient this trip but was able to navigate it. I imagine it could be a bigger problem in the height of tourist season because street parking is restricted.

Art & Wine

We book in the Village for ease of access to the Capitola Art & Wine Festival. Our second year with this property and we loved it. The amenities were great even though we didn’t get a chance to use the bbq like we wanted. Our fault. Well, the wine’s fault, really. The bathroom sinks drained really slowly and the showers had strong enough to pressure wash old concrete. But those were minor issues and we will consider booking this same suite next year!

Fall Break respite from the heat!

We had a wonderful stay at your property. It was the perfect break from the inland heatwave. Perfectly located in the neighborhood within walking distance of the village shops, restaurants, and the beach. And, literally steps away from a small market that has snacks, and a wide variety of home goods in case something was unintentionally omitted from your packing list! We spent a day with friends in Santa Cruz, visited the quaint Capitola Museum and beach with some local family, and enjoyed several village/neighborhood eateries: Pizza My Heart, Britannia Arms, Trestles, Margaritaville (recommend the Quesabaria Tacos), Gayles (for lunch and breakfast) and tasted fresh brewed Kombucha, beer, and root beer at Capitola Tap House (37 taps total). We also shopped at your local Target and Raleys and made some breakfasts and snacks at your place. Thank you, felt like a home away from home; relaxing with plenty of beach time every day. We were there for 5 nights, but felt like we got a 2 week vacation out of it. The only challenge we encountered was parking. Parking was difficult as the space provided is very narrow (we have a minivan, and we had a second car join us halfway through our stay due to work schedule conflicts). If possible, it would be great to allow parking in front of the garage -by permit or something?? for renters only- just a suggestion as parking was the only obstacle we encountered. Thanks! We will return
