Family weekend in Capitola

The Venetian Courts in Capitola are a landmark of the area. The best part is not only are the courts a great place to stay but you are literally on the beach and steps from downtown. We spent the celebrating our daughter’s birthday and it was perfect. They took the upstairs and we took the downstairs. This place has one of the usable second story decks which was a great way to end the day. Definitely would recommend

Colorful Seaside Beauty

Capitola and The Venetian Hotel are very nostalgic for our family. As our children were growing up, we spend many long weekends visiting this beautiful seaside village. Now that our children are all adults, we decided to spend a couple of days in one of the larger, privately owned 3 bedroom units. This sweet home was perfect for our family and brought back wonderful memories. You cannot beat the location, views and sounds of the waves while you drift off to sleep. The owners were extremely helpful and very gracious. We would definitely come and stay again, when in Capitola.

Great location!

You can't beat the location. The house was clean and exactly as advertised. The staircase is pretty steep so maybe not the best place for toddlers. But this place is great for adults and for families with kids that have already mastered the art of walking (or haven't started yet).

We had so much fun staying in this cute beach house in capitola. The ceiling was a bit low for our 6’4” guest but that’s expected & was comical. The beach house has everything you need and is in the perfect location. Would definitely stay here again.

Besides bringing your own sheets/towels...parking was a challenge. Kitchen was well stocked. Couch/bed fairly uncomfortable. Half of beach chairs broken. But, in the end, you can't beat the location.

Excellent Location

The location was perfect, especially when you have grandkids that wake up at 7am asking to go to the beach, it was easy being only steps away. The first floor ceiling is low with a beam that runs across making it hard on tall people and the stairway to the second floor is tricky but overall the place was great!

Capitola is Heaven

Capitola is a very special place in the history of our family. We’ve celebrated weddings, getaways and especially Thanksgiving for the past 30 years. Our time last Thanksgiving just added to that legacy. Everything was just as described and shown in photos. Working with you was smooth and easy. Looking forward to another trip there this year

Christmas Getaway

What a gem! Traveling with two boys, 20 and 17, isn’t always easy. This property allowed us all to have our own space with extra to spare. The view from upstairs is postcard perfect. A quick 3 minute walk puts you in the heart of Capitola Village to enjoy the festive store fronts. We can’t wait to stay again!

No Linens— towels or sheets.

Perfect location. We have been coming to Capitola for years. Just a couple of things to think about. The parking situation is a little inconvenient if you’re traveling with kids. We were lucky to find a spot in the village fairly close but it definitely took us all multiple trips. Additionally, this property does not provide linens. Sheets, pillow cases, hand towel, bath towels, face or kitchen towels. These properties are separate from the Venetian hotel— they may be more of long term rental properties? Anyway, it was my mistake, I did not read the fine print but it was a bummer to discover. Hoping someone else doesn’t make the same mistake. Just doesn’t make sense for me to pack in all the linens for a 2 night stay. Besides that being in Capitola and right on the beach is awesome no matter what. 😀

A Unique Experience

We loved staying at this historic property! Very clean, a lot of personality, and so close to the beach. My mom, who has trouble with stairs, stayed in the downstairs bedroom and my kids and I stayed upstairs. Kitchen was well stocked and it was nice to have beach chairs provided. The only downside was parking…we had to double park to unload the car on arrival and then move the car to a downtown parking spot, but once we figured it out parking was manageable. It was worth it for the wonderful location. Overall I would definitely recommend.
