Top Hooper Beach Hotel Reviews

10 Steps to the Sand…Capitola Beach Front at the mouth of the Wharf-Pet Friendly

10/10 Excellent

"Great location! Amazing views from balcony, Very clean, cute place. Garage was a necessity because of lack of parking in the wharf area. We were in walking distance to all the restaurants and shops. We had a question upon check in and Nancy answered right away. What a gem!"

1940's Capitola Village Rental - steps from beach

10/10 Excellent

"We had a good stay overall. Check in was easy, and communication with the host via email was clear and timely. Having a garage was a great feature for this location and a definite plus. The only downsides were the foot traffic (and noise) outside the home and the bedroom, which took away from the privacy of the stay. Overall, the home had some great conveniences, was charming and we appreciated the hosts communication and detailed instructions. We would 100% stay here again!"

Capitola Village Condo - 1 min walk to beach

10/10 Excellent

"The view is spectacular. The location is amazing. And, the property is beautiful. It lives up to the pictures. It is very will appointed, clean, comfortable and having two parking spots in the village is such a treat! We will be back. Thank you to the hosts for a wonderful stay."

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

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was for a multi generational family birthday. The location was wonderful. It’s in easy walking distance to Capitola Village for shopping and dining. Being literally steps from the beach allowed the children to spend a lot of time at the beach. We brought frisbees and kites. Leonard, the host, had lots of sand toys for the kiddos to use as well as beach chairs and an umbrella. The home had plenty of room for the ten of us to spread out. When we arrived Leonard met us and showed us around his home. He also made sure to give us his personal parking spot. You get two parking passes for the street parking about eighty feet from the front door as well as the village. On the weekend it’s better to plan on not moving your vehicle once you get it parked. Finding another spot close by can be tough. Also if you have three vehicles you can be playing musical cars but all in all if you know ahead of time you can plan accordingly and the parking is very doable. Overall we had a great time at Leonard’s home."

Grandma's Nest- Oceanfront Venetian

8/10 Good

"Great location and a charming place. However, our unit did not lock from the outside, anyone could walk in, no code needed and no key in sight. In addition, the AC didn’t work making the house stuffy and very warm. We did not have hot water in the upstairs bathroom. Text messages we sent to the contact provided were not answered."
