Villa Vista upper and lower are two separate oceanfront vacation rentals offering unobstructed views of the surf, sand and city lights. These upscale units each have three bedrooms with three private baths, a large living room, 60" Smart hdtv, Wi-Fi, fully stocked gourmet kitchen, dining & viewing area inside and outside, natural gas BBQ. All linens included. There are many rentals in the area but very few are right on the beach. Villa Vista will not disappoint!
My parents, Ginger and Bob Good, bought the property 30 years ago with an ambitious plan in mind. They remodeled the existing structure creating two, separate vacation rentals, an upper and lower, each with 3 bdrms/3 baths, and called it Villa Vista. Since then, countless families and friends from all over the world have gathered and reconnected here, often with multiple generations creating life long memories. It's gratifying to know that Villa Vista was a central part of those memories and continues to provide guests first class accommodations with incredible ocean views and amazing sunsets.
Adventurous guests enjoy world class surfing at Pleasure Point or you can sit in the living room and watch the surfing come to you. It's a short walk to the local market and a short bike ride to the Boardwalk or quaint Capitola village
