Capitola Village Beach "Trestle"
We had a great stay. Easy walk to everything. The place was clean and comfortable. Great communication with host's. It was very quiet. We would love to come back in the future. Thank you for a great Anniversary stay.

Manresa surf house street level full studio w/kitc
Beautiful place to stay! Easy to get in and was very clean and comfortable. Perfect for a quiet getaway and 5 minute walk to the beach where we watched the most beautiful sunset. Also, loved the amenities. After sunset we came back to relax by the fire before heading in for bed. Our hosts were super attentive and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Definitely will be back in the future.

Brand New Luxury Capitola Village Home!
Hidden gem in Capitola, Ca! Very cool rental with plenty of space to chill, whether on the patio or the spacious living room. It was close to everything, restaurants, the beach and just minutes from Santa Cruz. The rental had everything for a comfortable stay (i.e. washer & dryer), fully stock kitchen, awesome bathrooms. I would definitely stay here again!

Life is better at Capitola Beach
The house is prefect cozy and everything is super nice enjoyed my stay

Manresa Surf House -2 bedroom- Hot Tub- Fire Pits
We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The location is fantastic—just a short walk to the beach, making it perfect for a relaxing getaway. The home was spacious, clean, and well-equipped with everything we needed. Plenty of room for us to spread out and feel comfortable. The host was responsive and made check-in easy. Would definitely stay here again!

Manresa Surf House 1 bedroom Sleeps 4 unit #2
Clean, comfortable place in a very convenient location. I would stay here again.

30StepsToBeach-EBikes+Surfboards
The wife and I really enjoyed the location of this place. You would be hard pressed to find another Airbnb with a better spot!

Capitola Village Beach "Riverview"
I stayed here for about a week with my two kids for spring break. I felt very safe here traveling without a partner - right across the street from the police station, next to the fire house, and secure locks on the doors. This place was perfect! Fully stocked kitchen, walking distance from downtown and the beach, lots of space for us plus a few friends who came to visit. Hosts are very responsive and helpful. I'd stay here again!

Santa Cruz-Aptos- Beach Home-by-The -Sea
This property features a range of superb amenities. An 8-minute walk to Rio Del Mar beach, a cozy setup, laundry facilities on site, and all the little things you'd expect. Our arrival was met by a mix-up with the dates, resulting in the place not being ready. However, Myra and David went above and beyond to resolve the issue, leaving us extremely satisfied. Myra was an exemplary hostess, always responding promptly. In light of the numerous glowing reviews, I'm convinced our experience was an anomoly. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat, this is definitely worth considering.

Apartment with an ocean view
Clean place in a great area. Kitchen was definitely a nice feature that we very much enjoyed. There’s a beach in walking distance. The whole place is cozy and homey. Cons: coffee maker wasn’t clean, expired food was left behind, the beds were bunk beds, which wasn’t preferred. Overall, it was a positive experience and was very comfortable for 3 nights

Meant to Bee'Inn Los Gatos!
Christine’s place is located in a quiet neighborhood but walkable to grocery stores, coffee shop and some restaurants. Christine’s place is very cozy , beds are very comfortable , and kitchen is well equipped , would stay here again.

Capitola Sanctuary
Kristina was a great host. We had a last minute booking and she responded immediately. The location is directly across from the beach. Great location!

❤ of Capitola Village with Private Yard + Parking
We had such a great time!! The property was super clean. Jaime was very responsive. She had something we needed under an hour delivered to the front door! The area was cool, walkable & safe, lots of restaurants, ocean just a couple of blocks away, and lots of local artisan shops to visit. The property looked like the pictures and two big windows that brought the sunlight in was really nice , too. Very nice vibes here. We will be back!

Private Suite in the Redwoods with a View
We had a lovely 3 night stay and it was simply wonderful! Mickey and Sally were very friendly and easy to contact and communicate with. The Airbnb itself was quiet and private. They have a beautiful backyard garden overlooking the woods, which they allowed us to freely enjoy. Inside the Airbnb, the hosts provided pamphlets and instructions with recommendations for local trails and activities which was immensely helpful. There were also several amenities available such as coffee, wine, water, as well as bug spray and simple medications. Overall we had a great stay and feel relaxed and rejuvenated.

Dog-OK at Capitola Vista #4
We loved staying at this condo in the Capitola Village. Cute little patio with a view, walking distance to everything and added bonus is we could bring our doggo!

New 1-Bedroom apartment in Beautiful Santa Cruz
Our stay at Kimber and Mike's place was great- perfect space. My wife and I were checking out UC Santa Cruz with our daughter, and this apartment was a much better option than conjoined rooms in a hotel. When you close the bedroom door, the person(s) sleeping in the living room has their own half bath to use at night or in the morning without having to go into the master. The kitchenette was really nice to have as well. Feels recently renovated, sparkling clean, super-cozy. Quiet neighborhood, and everything's pretty close in Santa Cruz. Kimberly and Mike are excellent hosts- we'll be back for sure!

Deluxe Spa Suite-Ocean View-Allergy Friendly!
Beautiful place - we had the best time. Clean place. Walked to the beach every day and ate the restaurants. We will definitely stay here again !

Resort Getaway In Seascape
We stay in the Santa Cruz area quite a bit as my kids go to camp nearby. I really enjoyed the Seascape Resort. Bailey's listing was perfect! It is MUCH quieter than Capitola and Santa Cruz, which is more my jam. The resort is landscaped beautifully and we enjoyed exploring! The beach is just a short walk. Side note: check out the grocery store in the village across the street. They make fantastic sandwiches which are perfect for a beach picnic!

Luxury Villa - Flora View - Ground Level -Seascape
Only one minor thing: the universal electric car charger is out or order. Not the host's fault. But be aware. (There is a Tesla charger in the garage that's working.)

Seascape Beach Resort condo with ocean view
Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay. Well equipped kitchen and it was fun to spend some time enjoying the view.

Los Gatos Oasis
Easy check in. I enjoyed the ability to cook in the kitchen and even have some of the essentials already in the cabinets. Bed is very comfy. The flowers around the house make the place smell wonderful!

Bella Vista by the Sea. View, 1 Level, No stairs.
We have rented maybe a half dozen different units at Seascape over the years and Natalie's unit was one of our favorites! It has a prime location within the development. It is on the bluffs looking over the ocean and across from the north pool, but not too close where pool noise is an issue during the day. The unit was impeccably clean and well appointed, with new appliances and a well stocked kitchen. Bedrooms had blackout curtains (great for young children that still nap) and comfy beds. There is extensive beach equipment, including beach chairs, sand toys, and things to toss. There was also plenty of towels and bedding throughout the unit. Natalie was a wonderful host. Responsive, clear, and friendly. She accommodated an earlier check-in because the unit was clean, which was greatly appreciated. We would definitely stay with Natalie again!

Sunset and the beach at Seascape
We stayed at Kathleen's place for Thanksgiving, just after some torrential storms. The weather, however, was fantastic, and we enjoyed the pool and hot tub (saltwater--a pleasant surprise!). The beach was really great; our girls really enjoyed hunting for sea glass. Our older one discovered some old glass that dated back to pre-WWII and had trace amounts of uranium in it (it glows bright green under UV light). After that, looking for sea glass was all they wanted to do.... I don't know if all Seascape units are as nicely appointed, but this one was clean, modern, and comfortable. I can't recall if it is in the description, but it has a nice collection of puzzles and board games.
