Travel Guide

You'll be hard pressed to find an uncrowded #beach in the Santa Cruz/Capitola area but New Brighton is a must visit anyway. Beautiful sandy beach, sail boats, parasailing, volleyball, camping and a #lighthouse ! You just can't beat it.

"There is only one mirror... the mirror inside. Everything you see on the outside is a reflection of what is going on in your mind. It's a powerful tool so use it wisely." {Victoria Grant}
The colorful Capitola Venetian Hotel sits alongside the Pacific Ocean at the end of Capitola Beach.

Great location walkable to everything you need. Friendly neighbors. As others have mentioned there is noise in the upstairs unit. Large overhead lights. The lights on the bed did not work because the batteries were dead.
