Property Information
Description: 
Our elegant hotel is only eight blocks from quaint Capitola Village, California's oldest seaside resort, and three miles from the Santa Cruz Boardwalk & Wharf. We are at the center of a vacationer's paradise. Stroll through art galleries, antique shops, local wineries and majestic redwood forests. Observe the migration of elephant seals, gray whales and Monarch butterflies. Miles of beaches offer world-class surfing, fishing, boating and kayaking.
Capitola is famous for the begonia flower. We have adorned much of our hotel with this gracious flower. Be sure not to miss the annual Begonia Nautical Parade. Take a cable car down to the historic Shadowbrook Restaurant, where you can see the parade up close. You also won't want to miss the Art & Wine Festival and Wharf-to-Wharf Race.
Our luxurious rooms have every amenity imaginable, including four free HBO?? channels and pay-per-view programming. Business travelers appreciate our two-line phones, voice mail, conference room and ultra high-speed Internet connections. You'll love our pool, spa and exercise facility.
