THE SPACE
Blue Beluga Beach Bungalow (aka: "The Beluga") consists of 3 bedrooms / 2 baths, and has been recently redesigned & refreshed inspired by boutique hotels with a combined beachy & homey feel! We've added new modern furniture to complement the ocean-themed artwork and touches throughout the home.
Enter "The Beluga" through the enclosed gate into a tranquil front yard and peaceful water fountain. On a 6000+ sq foot lot, "The Beluga" has a spacious backyard. There is a large dining table, Weber BBQ grill, and a cozy gas firepit with adirondack-style lounge chairs to relax and wind down from your day at the beach.
Enter though the arched doorway, and you'll walk into an ocean-themed living room with sand-textured walls and our starfish collection. Snuggle by the gas fireplace for ambience and warmth. Or watch a movie or sports on the new 65" TV on the comfy couches.
Adjacent is the dining room with a large table that will seat 8+. The kitchen is well stocked with pots/pans, dining-ware, utensils, microwave, toaster oven, coffee machine, etc. There is a full size fridge and gas range.
There are 3 bedrooms spread throughout the home. A dividing hallway door can be closed between the front and 2 back bedrooms for additional privacy or noise reduction.
- Bedroom #1 - Front bedroom has a queen bed and can be for the early risers.
- Bedroom #2- Consists of a twin daybed that can be pulled out to 2 twin beds side-by-side (equivalent to a king bed).
- Bedroom #3 - Large master suite with a queen bed, and a comfy pull-out sofa bed. It also consists of a elongated jacuzzi bath tub.
Garage access is also available to guests if you need additional space for beach gear, surfboards, etc. We provide a wagon, 4 backpack beach chairs, and some kiddie beach toys for guests to borrow.
To make your stay comfortable, we supply soft bath towels, extra blankets, shampoo/conditioner, body soap, and other basic amenities (toilet paper, paper towels, etc.).
You can park up to 3 cars at the property. 1 car can fit into the driveway and 2 cars on the sidewalk in front of the house (avoid the paid meter parking just around the corner by Capitola Beach)!
YouTube TV is available, or you can log into your own streaming apps (e.g Netflix, Hulu, etc).
Sorry, no pets allowed. Although we love our fur balls, one of our daughters has allergies.
