Quality Inn & Suites Capitola By the Sea

10/10 Excellent

"Great!"

Seacliff Inn Aptos, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"The staff for breakfast in the morning took very long to get the check to us and one of the women with us walked back in the kitchen to remind them of the check and the servers were standing in there just on their phones and then were rude about it............. ( the girl with the long brown hair) it was in braids both days was great tho."

Capitola Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great property in a very convenient location for multiple activities in Capitola. Check-in was easy. Our room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. We stayed during the week, so town was quiet. Service was excellent, especially Julie. I left my sunglasses in the room and she called me to confirm they were mine and then sent them to me. I received them quickly and they were packed with care. We were able to park right across the street with the parking pass from the hotel. We left our car there and walked everywhere, including to the Shadowbrook for dinner. We would definitely stay there again."

Rio Sands Vacation Rentals

10/10 Excellent

"Great little vacation spot away from the big crowds and corporate atmosphere."
