This is a historic inn overlooking the ocean. Views are awesome. Rooms cozy and comfortable. Breakfast was delivered promptly.

5.0 / 10.0

Amazing view and friendly staff. Continental breakfast delivered was a plus. Room was spacious with a full kitchen. We stayed in the Rose Garden Suite.

5.0 / 10.0

Breakfast had nice variety but the pastries were a bit hard. Bagel and fruit were good. We're not coffee drinkers but did make tea with the coffee machine (wasnt sure how it worked but figured it out). Room was clean, pretty, quiet and very private we could hear ppl walking above us but it wasn't too bad. Staff was great. Katrina gave us a little lesson on monarchs when we were checking in. She was kind to wait for our late arrival (accident on freeway). Cleaning staff were sweet and respectful of privacy. A nice getaway and would definitely come back, if opportunity arises Thank you!!

3.0 / 10.0

First room was not as advertised and noisy. I asked to move and the management was accommodating. We did get a much better room.

5.0 / 10.0

The staff was great first of all. Katrina was just wonderful. Very helpful, friendly,informative, and really detailed. The place was beautiful. With an amazing view. Even got some dolphin and whale watching done. Just a very cute place different that’s the big hotel chains. Made the experience a very memorable one.

5.0 / 10.0

Our stay was beautiful and relaxing. It was an experience like no other. Being surrounded by nature , the ocean, and the lush trees and flowers, made for a memorable, peaceful, and rejuvenating paradise experience. We were taken aback by the beauty of this jewel, but most importantly, we felt welcomed and at-home b/c of the friendly , courteous, and kindness of our hostesses. It was a magical experience and we will never forget it. We will definitely be returning. Thank you for sharing the beauty with us and especially for having a sanctuary for its rare wildlife, plant life, and the preservation of our oceans.

Great place to stay!

4.0 / 10.0

This is a pretty, quaint, very clean, property. We were in the Holiday House, which is a separate little house with full kitchen and deck. Easy, close, walk to the Esplanade. The drawbacks in the house is that the pillows are like a flat sponge. There is no cushion or fluff to them. The linens are washed with a fragrance detergent or maybe fabric softener, so if you are sensitive to that, be aware. The many windows are covered with wood blinds and shear curtains, but you will wake up at dawn with all the light coming in, so bring an eye cover, lol.

5.0 / 10.0

Unique Inn with wonderful location. Friendly staff Continental Breakfast delivered to your room was delightful. Close to Capitola village and beach very walkable. Views from the large patio deck are impressive.

8.0 / 10.0

The Victoria room has a beautiful bay view. The garden is so romantic. I like the plants , the fountains, the statues and the lovers seat outside on the front porch. There are many little spots you can take beautiful selfies. It was so quiet. I like the interior decoration, especially the fantastic electric fireplace. The linen is okay. I had a good sleep. The only thing needs to improve is the exhausting fan over the toilet didn't work. The tv was not working either but we stay only a short time so it was actually a good thing not to watch tv. Overall, we had a very good memory at this place, the place is romantic, fantastic, convenience. We would come back again and try the other rooms which also have the ocean view.

5.0 / 10.0

The manager is extremely friendly and shows us the Monarch Butterflies and its metamorphosis process. Very interesting! The place is lovely overlooking the ocean and we can actually see the whales. Amazing! We love it and will definitely come back again!

10.0 / 10.0

This place is absolutely perfect. The room felt so cozy and it smelled clean. The property is beautiful and enamoring. The woman that runs the office was amazing and i enjoyed learning about the life cycle of the Monarchs from her. I will be back, for sure. The pastries and fruit delivered to my room every morning were delightful and i would recommend this place to everyone i know!

The hotel is very old and outdated. The carpet was very old and dirty. There were cobwebs on the ceiling. The breakfast was not tasty and was for one person, not two. The area around the hotel was nice.

This is a gorgeous house with lots of charm. The location couldn't be better - so peaceful with beautiful grounds overlooking the ocean. Service is friendly and helpful - even helped with the suitcases. You can also see the monarch's chrysalis and they release some everyday as they hatch. Room was beautiful with lots of room. Nice bathroom with a window and lots of tile. Nice breakfast too. Will definitely be back.

Location

As much as I enjoyed my stay there , it would have been excellent to have a free EV charging station in the property like many other hotels.

4.0 / 10.0

Very happy with the location and the buildings although seemed slightly run down overall. Kind of evoked entering another era. Innkeeper was sweet and a multitasker. Our bathroom seemed outdated, some simple changes like a new shower curtain and nicer place to store toiletries would've been simple. Electrical outlet in the bathroom did not work.
