Just Don’t
Negative: Got locked out of the unit. Grandkids were wet from playing at the beach, hungry, and had to use the bathroom. Mind you it's about 62 degrees. Called for help to get the code on the door lock. Advice was to turn the knob left! Finally, she said they would send someone out within the hour, that they would call me to let me know when they would be there. Took the Grands to get warm at a nearby restaurant. Two hours later, I messaged for an update. Was told someone came but we weren't there so they left! Help finally arrived. He confirmed the door wasn't working and told me someone wouldn't be out to fix it until the next day. He broke the door to get us in. He was a complete hero! In addition, unit was dirty. Must have termites, droppings on surfaces. Weeds and trash on the back patio. Plumbing is weak. Cannot flush any toilet paper. No window coverings on the bathroom windows. Positive: Location is great. Paid $1,300 to stay here. Was told they would get back to me about compensation....still waiting. Just Save Yourself....Don't Book!

Perfect spot to relax
Capitola area is perfect for a walkable little beach get away. This place is poised just out of view of the ocean but you can hear the waves through open windows. You can see the ocean from back deck but not easily. The home is spacious and very clean. Lovely stay!

Great Location But not for the Disabled or Seniors
O'Neal Vacation Rentals, Dear O'Neal Vacation Rentals, Dear O'Neal Vacation Rentals, The information you provided in your email is incorrect. Your repair person, Reed, who was sent to fix the heaters, informed us that one of the heaters is still not functioning, and the other was not even plugged in. We believe expecting the tenants to be aware of such issues is unreasonable. Also, you already knew about the problem, as you placed two space heaters in the living room and the other in the back bedroom. When we turned on the heaters at around 5 am, the power went off in the unit. Fortunately, we had flashlights and could search for the electrical box in the dark. Please address these issues promptly and provide a satisfactory resolution. As seniors, my husband is disabled, and this location is excellent for us. However, many problems need to be addressed. The electrical plugs in the unit are old, mostly loose, and unusable. Additionally, the shower/tub issue is unreasonable for tenants to be asked to change if it goes from hot to cold water. It was ridiculous, and we couldn't take showers. You should be able to post a note on Vrbo indicating that this location is unsuitable for seniors; we only had to take sponge baths. Yesterday afternoon, they did repair the wall. Unit in the bedroom, thank you. The kitchen was perfect and well-stocked. The bottom line is we had a bad experience with O'Neal rentals; indeed, your other properties are better than this one.

Perfect Capitola Getaway
The location was perfect. The price was great. The house is old and I think it would be worth raising the rental price to afford to modernize the house.
