Broad stretches of sandy beaches, tall palm trees swaying in the offshore breeze and idyllic peace and quiet in a bright and spacious historical beach house - all this can be your vacation experience at this incredible house. Staying at the lovely vacation home on Fiesta Verano gives your family the comfort of having a home away from home, combined with the exotic excitement of Southern California’s beachside fun. Capistrano Beach is the quintessential beach town, perfect for families or couples looking to get away. The house is on a quiet, tree-lined street within walking distance of picturesque ocean view parks, amazing restaurants and the famous Southern California beach.
This vacation rental is one of the many historical homes in the nautical community of Capistrano Beach, and the town greets visitors with old-fashioned hospitality and modern convenience. Walk into the recently renovated living room after a long day of fun in the sun and relax with your family in the privacy of a cozy home. Snuggle up on the comfortable sectional sofa to read a book from our well-stocked library, watch a movie on the flat screen TV and DVD player or play one of the several provided board games with your family. We also have three bean bag chairs - great for larger gatherings or casual lounging.
The house is equipped with everything you need for a fun-filled gathering at the beach including beach chairs, beach towels, a large cooler, a custom surfboard, boogie boards, sand toys, even a pop-up shade shelter.?
We are located just minutes away from excellent restaurants and every type of cuisine, but you can also save a little money or give yourself a more relaxed, intimate evening and cook in the charming, completely stocked and well-equipped kitchen.
The french doors from the family room open to a quiet, picturesque half-an-acre backyard. A large covered patio with lovely outdoor dining area just begs for a special outdoor meal. Relax by the koi pond, shaded by several 50-year-old California Redwood trees. If you want an easy outdoor venue for weddings, family reunions or any other special event, walk over to Pines Park. It’s only a five-minute walk, and is known for its large grassy knolls and 180-degree views of the Pacific Ocean and Catalina Island.
You can’t go wrong with this home’s location. We are close to all of Southern California’s entertainment amenities and so easy to find. We’re located just 60 minutes south from Los Angeles Airport (LAX), 60 minutes north of San Diego Airport (SAN), and 30 minutes south of John Wayne Airport in Orange County (SNA). It takes less than an hour to drive to Seaworld, Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farm, Legoland, San Diego Safari Park and the world-famous San Diego Zoo. Plus, drive about 15 minutes to Laguna Beach and Pageant of the Masters, or spend a day checking out some of the incredible art galleries and museums. Also, downtown Los Angeles and San Diego, with their exciting restaurants, culture and nightlife are all within an hour’s drive of the home. Of course, you’ll want to see all of South Orange County first - which simply bursts with art, culture, fun outdoor activities, great restaurants and the kinds of experiences which you and your family will remember for a lifetime. If you want to add an incredible experience to your stay, consider a day-trip to Catalina Island from Dana Point marina. An hour boat ride, which leaves from a harbor just minutes from the house, takes you to your own island paradise for a uniquely Southern Californian experience.
Southern California is an outstanding location for any vacation. Local activities include the beach, (take surfing lessons or rent a kayak for an extra-special day!) hiking, biking, golf, tennis, racquetball, basketball, fishing, horseback riding, shopping, live theatre, wine-tasting, celebrity tours, cinemas, museums, sightseeing, swimming, snorkeling, SCUBA, boating, sailing, water skiing, surfing, windsurfing, parasailing, jet skiing, boating, rafting, whale-watching, and much more. Take a day-trip to Hollywood, Balboa Island, the Temecula Wine Country, Universal Studios or the famous Main Street in Huntington Beach, aka Surf City, just to name a few.
When you stay at the vacation rental in Capistrano Beach, your vacation gets a beautiful, cozy home-base, so that you can explore all of the incredible opportunities and amazing experiences that Southern California has to offer.

Our kids loved all the toys and dvd's. They had a great time, they never got to go outside and explore the backyard we were always out during the day. You have a beautiful home in a very pleasant area. We felt in love with Dana Point and San Clemente.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Thank you so much for such a great place to stay for our family vacation this year. We loved your place and it was perfect for our family. There is a peaceful and wonderful feeling in your place and we thoroughly enjoyed being there. If available we definitely plan on staying again. I think my three boys are now addicted to the taco place down the road. We gave them plenty of business.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

We were going to stay in a hotel with our 3 kids for our vacation, but decided to check out vacation rentals at the last minute – I’m really glad we did. The house has lots of outside and inside toys for kids. It has tons of room for them to run around. We put a kiddy pool on the patio and they played for hours (and they were under the cover so I didn’t have to slather them with suntan lotion every 20 minutes). We were able to cook or go to one of the local restaurants – the Thai place is great. I loved that we didn’t have to haul everyone to a restaurant for every meal. I think we saved a lot of money over staying in a hotel. We had a great vacation and can’t wait to come back.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, families with young children.

We really enjoyed our time at this rental. It was the perfect jumping off point for fun time with the kids in the spring. We did Disneyland, Sea World, Wild Animal Park and Legoland. The house was a welcome place to come home to after a long day. Next time I think we’ll spend more time at the beach. :)Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway.

Our family really enjoyed our summer vacation here. We spent days at the beach. We loved exploring Del Mar Street in San Clemente and downtown Laguna Beach. We BBQ’d while the kids played in the yard. It was a great relaxing vacation for the whole family. BTW: I love love love Trader Joe’s – why aren’t those everywhere???Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway.

This house is so cute I want to eat it up! It’s everything I dreamed a beach cottage would be, bright, clean, fun colors – but it has lots of room inside and out. We had a great vacation and are looking forward to next year.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway.

Me and my family (9 personas, adult and children) had a great experience at the house. The house is very comfortable, clean and in a very nice neighborhood. Would it be great if it has another bathroom. But this was not really an issue, once you get coordinated. I recommend it eyes closed.

About the owner: We're a family of 5, 3 kids ages 10, 5 and 2. We lived in Prague, Czech Republic for 5 years and have rented private vacation homes all over the world. It's our favorite way to travel. When we moved back to California our goal was to purchase the perfect vacation home to share with others. We found it! We totally renovated the home and love living in it. We travel while others enjoy our slice of paradise.
