Chaminade Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Great"

Grandma's Nest- Oceanfront Venetian

10/10 Excellent

"It was great place in Capitola right on the villas. Beach was extremely close. One recommendation, for anyone staying in the villas is to bring some fans to help air circulation in the house. As always shops and restaurants are all within walking distance. Thank you for allowing us to stay!"

BEACH FRONT LUXURY VENETIAN - 2 Jacuzzi Tubs - 2 Parking Passes - BBQ

10/10 Excellent

"If you want easy access to beach..good food and fun entertainment this is the place! It's beautiful and comfortable with everything you need. What a relaxing place with views of the beach and you can enjoy the sounds of the waves!"

Capitola Dreaming, Beach Front Venetian #7 1/2

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at this beach house was truly special. Being right on the beachfront made for an unforgettable experience, and the home had everything we could possibly need. From beach chairs and an umbrella for relaxing by the water to an electric vacuum for quick tidying, every detail was thoughtfully considered. The kitchen was also exceptionally well stocked, with everything needed for cooking and even baking.The host was wonderful to work with. Communication was excellent from start to finish and when we had a small mishap during our stay, they were incredibly gracious and understanding, which made me feel completely at ease.One of the highlights was meeting the host’s niece on the beach. It was clear that this family takes great pride in their home and genuinely cares about their guests’ experience.The only thing to note is that parking can feel a little challenging at first, especially if you’re bringing more than one vehicle. However, once I got the rhythm of it, it almost became a game and was manageable.I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, well equipped beachfront getaway in Capitola."

Capitola Village Condo - 1 min walk to beach

10/10 Excellent

"The house is spacious and clean and placed in the perfect area of Capitola. We stay in Capitola annually and this has been the best place yet! Honestly I can’t think of a single complaint. It is super secured so we felt safe leaving the teens while we did date night. The set up creates privacy as well so it is a great place for families while still giving you couple time."
