Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Capitola Beach

What a special place - it is beautiful, had everything we needed, wanted, and more, and is clearly cared for with love. The garden was gorgeous, hot tub was perfect, best stocked kitchen of any Airbnb. Truly dog friendly, with personalized surprises and great art. Amazing location, walkable to the beach and to food and shops. Thanks Sara!

I stayed here with my wife and son and it was the perfect place. Had a nice little backyard and enough space for the kiddo to roam around. Super comfortable and felt like home away from home. Love how close it is to the Henry Cowell redwoods state park. Kathleen was an excellent host. Would definitely stay here again. 😊

Lara has been an incredible host. This unit is comfortable, spacious, and made for a relaxing stay for my family. The back deck was enjoyed most nights! Check in was simple and the space was very clean. Would stay here again in a heartbeat and highly recommend without hesitation to anyone looking for a place in this area!

We loved staying at Shelli’s home in Monterey Dunes Colony. Every room was set up nicely and clean, and you could tell Shelli has put a lot of care into the home. There were 7 of us and each family member enjoyed their stay. We love staying at Monterey Dunes Colony because the location can’t be beat. Every home has their quirks but honestly we didn’t find any at Shelli’s. It was comfortable to hang out and enjoy the beach and scenery, and close enough to outdoor activities and the aquarium. The living room is set up comfortably for a big group, while offering privacy too. It was a restful and rejuvenating getaway! We plan to book again.

Vic and Leanne’s place was great. The location could not have been any better. Everything was super clean and comfortable. We can’t wait to come back again.

First off the photos don’t do this house justice. The spaces, including that wonderful balcony, are bigger than you think. We had 7 adults, a toddler & an infant and we didn’t feel cramped at all. The beds, linens and pillows were so comfy, the multitude of windows to let the ocean air breeze come through, along with fans in the bedrooms, were perfect. The kitchen was the most well equipped I’ve used in an Airbnb before. The wagon, chairs and beach towels were also so nice to have for the short one block walk to Black Beach (one of my favorites in Santa Cruz). Oh and do not let the 1 full bathroom for everyone scare you off. Having the 2 half baths made it all work and we never had an issue. My family LOVED this place and wants to come back so very much. We have spent 26 years coming to Santa Cruz almost annually and this was our best residential experience yet. Thank you to Kim and her Rental Mgr, Nancy, for taking care of us and communicating so well. This family highly recommends!

Pleasant stay, nicely decorated and slept my family of 5 adults in comfort. Dog friendly as advertised but you would not know it because there was no smell or hair on our clothes. Walking distance to restaurants grocery store and coffee shop. This was my first time to rent a home form airbnb and I'd do it again based on this stay.

My family had a great time . The house is beautiful and the location couldn’t be better . Thank you for helping us make amazing memories.

We had a great time staying in the Treetop Heaven "treehouse"! My wife and I loved the mountain feel of the environment without the excursion into the actual mountains. Amenities, shops, and restaurants are just a mile away and the area has a small town, community feel. Hosts were very attentive and made sure we knew they were available if we needed anything. The accommodations were perfect for the two of us and my wife especially enjoyed our meals on the deck hidden up in the trees! A great place for a getaway!

I chose this stay for my annual lady trip. We frequent the Aptos/Capitola/Santa Cruz area a lot for friends and family and chose this area for the beach/village convenience. Parking was great, I personally loved driving my truck up the small hill. Cameras were excellent for ensuring our safety! Easy to get in and easy access to both the parking/backyard and the village/beach via the small stairs. This place was loaded with amenities and was easy to use them. Loved the little radio for breakfast and clean up! The comforter on the king bed was out of this world comfy. The board games and photography books were a hit when hanging back at the airbnb for midday nights and late night chats with my girlies. Water pressure and heat was fantastic. Futons, king bed, space heater, and fireplace made for very cozy nights/early mornings. The large windows were great for views! Jaime was a great host, my group mentioned her communication and responsiveness was on point!

This is a clean and beautiful place to stay! Very baby friendly! We didn’t realize that there is another unit above the Airbnb - you can hear footsteps occasionally.

Great place!! Loved the ability to walk down to the beach. Appreciated the beach chairs.

Such a lovely and peaceful retreat. Steps to the beach. Howard was excellent with communication. Highly recommended

Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay. Well equipped kitchen and it was fun to spend some time enjoying the view.

QUIET! I am fairly good with maps and finding locations... and love to find well-located homes in a quiet area. The house is on a corner of 2 smaller streets and there really is not any traffic - one of the streets is really 1 lane and very quaint! It is very comfortable and cozy. There were friendly walkers - it is a obviously a great neighborhood. Ben is a great host. The house guide binder was very well put together and helpful....I wish I would have read it as soon as I got in. There is a very interesting walk of about 1 mile to downtown that is all on quiet streets and finally across a bridge into town - take it! Without a doubt, I would stay here again next time I am in Santa Cruz!

Barnaby‘s place was the perfect getaway for us to celebrate our anniversary. Proximity and walk ability to everything in addition to a very clean comfortable and well appointed spot. Great communication with Barnaby with quick responses. This would be a great rental in conjunction with the office next door for a big group.

My family and I had an amazing stay at this Airbnb! The place was clean and well-maintained, which made it feel welcoming and comfortable. The view was absolutely stunning and added a special touch to the experience. On top of that, the host was outstanding—extremely responsive and genuinely committed to ensuring a great stay. They went above and beyond to accommodate any needs, which made everything seamless. I highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again!

The home was clean and very spacious. I was concerned about the cold weather but the house was so cozy. The pool was so close to us and very clean. The hot tub was wonderful. I loved that the home was so close to the water and we could hear the waves crashing. Everything about the home was amazing.

A minor issue with our original reservation was quickly resolved by the PowerWest Team. They responded immediately and went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of and had a perfect trip. The unit is a beautiful, well equipped condo with spectacular ocean front views. We will definitely visit again and stay with PowerWest.

We've been coming to Seascape for over 20 years now and this was one of the better locations for our family. It had grass access and beautiful ocean views. The kids loved the little seating area. Overall the location and space was everything we needed and more.

I rented this house to celebrate my birthday with friends and it was such a beautiful, well sized space. The views were gorgeous and the accommodations were unique and perfect for what we needed. Overall such an amazing stay and would definitely consider coming back again.

It was very comfortable and felt like home.... My host was very accommodating.....I would definitely go back again

Beautiful home with a great view! Very clean and homey. Matthew is also a great host with clear communication and very helpful instructions pre-check-in. We felt right at home when we arrived. The horses are also very friendly and my son loves petting them. All in all would definitely recommend!

Everything was perfect! This place was like a second home which offered everything we needed and more. We felt welcomed and immediately comfortable here. Our host Jane was responsive and kind. We will definitely come back!
