The ceilings are not low they are extremely low. Downstairs if you are 5’10 or taller you have to duck. The shower upstairs is for someone under 5’ and the bathroom downstairs is not usable for any adult.

Great Location!

Loved the location of this property. It was walking distance to the beach, shopping, and dining. We had plenty of room for five adults. Shower was very tiny. Had a hard time getting hair wet it was so short. A downfall was that no linens are provided, but works out ok, just don’t forget. Would love to stay here again!!

Perfect weekend

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.

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).

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!

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
