Capitola Village Bungalow - 2 Blocks from the Sand
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, 5 reviews
"We loved the space - the owners definitely made the most out of a very small space. The apartment is beautiful, well stocked with everything you need for a stay, and right by the beach. The only issue we had was that it was a little crowded - and bathrooms were tiny. Might be difficult for someone tall or wide to navigate."

It is convenient to everything in Capitola, has parking provided, well stocked kitchen, beach chairs, quiet and great for our get away. We never could get the TV to work with the Roku service but we also didn’t reach out to ask how to overcome that. The parking is tight but that was clearly stated.

Capitola Seaside Studio

"Although Capitola is busy from dawn to dusk, the charm of this small tourist town is that nobody seems to mind. Cute shops, tasty restaurants, and plenty of things to see and do, seem to show what Capitola is all about. After 10:00pm the quiet takes over and erases the day. This little studio is about location, location, location. I would stay here again."
