Why they chose this property
This tropical cottage is set apart from the bustle of the busy Village, yet it is close to all that Capitola offers. There are three separate areas in the garden to enjoy and it sleeps up to three guests at prices that are generous compared to other rentals. Local laws require that this be a 30 night minimal rental. Often guests like to split a month with a relative or friend, if a month is too lengthy. Starting in January, 2026, a charming second bedroom with an extra long twin, will be an exciting addition.
What makes this property unique
Easy walk to Peet's Coffee, Nob Hill Grocery, Capitola Beach, Gayle's Bakery, shops and Shadowbrook Restaurant. Easily park your car at the house and walk almost everywhere! Peaceful yet near lots of action.
