Location, location, location! Right across from the river walk, a short walk to the beach, village shops, restaurants, cafes, and wine bars. This open space cottage sleeps up to 4 comfortably. There is a SEMI-private sleeping room with a queen bed and pull-out double bed sofa. This quaint cottage includes a full kitchen and a private deck with electric BBQ.

The Space:
The first of two attached cottages. Enter Unit A through the private walk. This unit offers you a private patio with an electric bbq. Enter into the cottage to find an eating area and kitchen that is fully stocked to prepare meals on the vintage stovetop and oven. The bathroom is at the back of the cottage.

This cozy cottage is located right across from the river walk and only a short walk to the beach, village shops, restaurants, cafes, and wine bars. You can take a five-minute walk up to Gayle's Bakery for their signature locally roasted coffee or grab a sweet treat from the case. It is truly the perfect location for central access to all!

Great location and cute cottage
Walking distance to everything in Capitola. Cottage was clean and check in easy. There is not a lot of privacy. The one bedroom had a shade and curtains. The futon is not very comfortable, but everything else was amazing! Fully stocked kitchen. Would stay here again!

Sweet cottage in perfect location
We absolutely loved staying at this cozy spot right in the heart of Capitola Village. It had everything we needed and fit our family of 3 + a pup perfectly. The host was super responsive and all went smoothly. The only drawback is that the hot water smells a bit when you first turn it on. Not sure how you would fix that though. We plan to stay here again!

We had a fabulous stay at this gem in Capitola! Walking distance to downtown, beach, and trails. The cottage was clean and had all amenities you’ll need. The patio was perfect for an afternoon in the sun. We will definitely be back to stay again!

Perfect for our small group
We had 3 people for just a 2 night stay and found this the perfect location. The sleeping area is just the converted living space, so it has the feel of a big sleepover party. Would have been too cramped for more people or if we were spending more time just hanging out at the house, but for us it was perfect. We loved being walking distance to the village shops in Capitola. There is a lovely river walk path that goes down to the village and the beach. We enjoyed the local restaurants, arcade, and shopping, plus walking along the beach. This spot is also easy driving distance into Santa Cruz and other neighborhoods. The lack of a dedicated parking spot was occasionally inconvenient, but wouldn't deter us from booking again. Overall this is a great location for a small group who plans to be out and about most of the day.

Just about perfect
Very happy with everything. I would consider doing it again in the near future. There were some small items that need attention but nothing that would make me not want to return again. It might bother some but not me. Door to bathroom stick a little; kitchen faucet did not swing but had hose so no problem. Easy fix. Worth the money.

Great beach getaway.
Conveniently located near the river and close to the village and beach. Flexible arrangement of sleeping options. Dog friendly. Clean and well appointed. Had everything we needed, except for a second working fan to cool the inside in the afternoon. I would certainly stay there again.

Cute cottage, prime location!
We had a great time here overall. We stayed for four nights and the car in the “shared” parking spot never moved an inch, but we eventually found unrestricted parking a couple of blocks away on Gilroy Drive. It would have been nice if the host had pointed this out instead of suggesting we try the municipal parking lots which have many restrictions. Also would have been great to have clothes hangers in the closet. But overall the place was nice, would book it again for sure!

Charming bungalow in a perfect location
Great location where you can walk to everything. Very charming property, just the right size for a couple and dog. Fair pet policy that made it easy to bring our dog along for a last minute weekend getaway. Parking lot across the street has plenty of spots but no overnight parking so we kept our eyes peeled for a street spot, once we got one we didn’t touch the car for the rest of the weekend. It’s an older property so minor things like sticky doors/windows and an old fashioned oven might not be everyone’s cup of tea but I thought it added to the charm!
