We enjoyed our stay so much. Our room was beautiful and we were greeted by Sagar who made us a wine and cheese board. Breakfast was delicious and delivered to our room. We had a beautiful walk out patio with our own private jacuzzi. A perfect place to enjoy a romantic getaway.

Very cold evening. Room was very cold. Would have been better if staff had tried to heat room before we arrived. We had to keep the fireplace on all night. Space heater very small. Need a bigger heater. Ppp Breakfast was great!!!

The staff was great; super friendly. The room was beautiful and had any extras we may have forgotten. The only thing I might change is cooling options. It got a little warm, even with fans, but overall we had a really nice stay at a beautiful inn. We will definitely stay again!

We came here as a “mini moon” and the service was absolutely perfect. Location is excellent and while the rooms are older, everything was very comfortable! We love it and will 100% stay again when we visit Capitola.
