complete satisfaction
Sep 27, 2023
Loved the location. No water for a day. The dustiest KOA we’ve stayed in during our 5 week long trip. Very odd bathrooms with no trash cans or paper towels.

It used to be our second home but California is getting to be so unsafe and so expensive. My Mother still lives in Capitola otherwise we wouldn't have come.

Everything was great! The staff was friendly and very helpful answering questions and making us feel like part of the KOA family. We will definitely visit again!

Very clean and lovely with friendly staff. We’d love to come back next time through. Thank you.

The staff was professional and friendly from check-in and throughout our 3 day stay. We were very impressed that every employee we interacted with performed their assignments well and with pride! We had a very pleasant stay!

All team members I interacted with were professional and friendly. ���������� Sites 223 & 224 technically don't qualify as "pull thru" in terms of a Class A 45ft Prevost Marathon Coach.�� I had to backout from both sites once to change site (tree blocking satellite) and when leaving after my stay was up. Overall, place was quiet and I liked being within walking distance from the beach

Overall we had an amazing weekend and the kids loved the campgrounds. Only issues we had was the main bathroom nearest the tent sites didn’t have hot water so it was a longer trek to get hot water. The pool was also not heated like advertised. They were trying to fix it but a big part of our trip was planned around swimming and the pool was arctic cold that the kids couldn't swim.

Family trip. We all had a great time. Place is always cleaned. Lots for the kids to do. Only problem, pool heater was broken. Didn't stop kids from going in though.

We had a great time celebrating our Family Reunion! It was our first time with KOA and we were very pleased with the friendly staff, activities and amenities. The area where our cabins 13-17 were located provided a private space for us to hold our own activities and program! It became a wonderful bonding family time for all of us! Thank you Santa Cruz/Monterey Bay KOA!

We had a nice stay at the KOA, other than our showers near our campsite we’re not in operation, that was the only downside. Everything else was great.

This was a our first time staying in a Deluxe Cabin and we loved it! We recently sold our travel trailer, so this gave us the camping experience without the work. We can't wait to come back again - the only problem is that this site books so quickly and far in advance! Thanks for the great stay.

Cramped spaces, noisy, and way to expensive for what you get. Had to wait in line for showers since your other huge facility with tons of showers wasn’t working due to no hot water. I paid $140 a night for a tent site and couldn’t even take a hot shower? Just seemed like a place where people come to let their kids run wild and play loud music from their trailers. Didn’t feel like a campgrou

Overall, love the park, but don’t really care for the blasting outdoor music and tv’s or very noisy groups that seem to go unchecked. Should not allow guests to do what they want with amplified audio outdoors. Facilities and park are otherwise very good.

This was our first time renting an RV and staying at a KOA. The campground was really nice, very clean and the staff was very friendly. You have so many cool activities, especially for the kids. Also very pet friendly so that was a plus. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

Our stay was fantastic. We enjoyed all of the amenities and perks that were offered to us. I have only one (1) recommendation... The oleander bushes on the property are toxic and could be fatal if ingested. The oleanders should be replaced by bushes that are not poisonous. There are so many kids and pets exposed to these bushes and it is a disaster waiting to happen. Otherwise, it was GREAT!!!!

My 3 year old son loved everything the campground had to offer- the jumper, the sand, the playground, the pool. It was so lovely to see groups of small kids riding their bikes and playing together, like we did in the neighborhoods I grew up in. We’ll be back with his cousins! PS- the people who ran the s’mores activity on Th night were incredibly friendly and kind.

IT WAS NICE

Very well run. We stayed 3 nights in a deluxe cabin, which was very comfortable and whoever does the cleaning did an amazing job! All the cabins we saw had a nice fairly private patio area with a BBQ and table for 4. The beach is just a few minutes away. If you head into Capitola or Santa Cruz there will be traffic in the afternoon.

Clean and quiet

I appreciate the text message informing us about up coming events such as dinner and breakfast available at the Sand Shack.

We enjoyed our quick weekend trip. A little chilly for pool use but loved coming down for wine and cheese on Friday upon arrival. The store had a wide variety of items so that worked out well. Location is great. Enjoyed the bike rentals. Only wish there were more food items at the Sand Shack. Restrooms were clean. Playground and jumping pillow were a big hit!

We stayed for 3 nights. Our site was spacious and the area was quiet. The campground was very well kept and the bathrooms were nice. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
Sep 19, 2023
Nearest shower hed no hot water the entire stay and the bathrooms smelled bad especially right outside. Also quiet hours are not inforced; specifically people/ kids making lots of noise at 5:00 in the morning.

Very family oriented campground offering fun events for everyone. The staff is friendly and helpful. I would absolutely recommend friends and family to stay here if they want to be in the Santa Cruz area.

We had a great time at this wonderful Kampground. Staff was friendly and attentive. Amenities and offerings were many.

I had no idea it was so busy here. There was a huge party outside my rv late into the night. Loud & no nature around campsite. Wish I hadn’t stayed here
Sep 18, 2023
We stayed here because our group had varying levels of camping experience. The facility has a lot of amenities, but for the amount you pay per night, we feel there shouldn't be an additional resort fee added.

The staff is always so friendly and great with the kids, two thumbs up!

Everything was great but it was really hard to find our airstream at night. Can there be illuminated signs next to road so easier to see in the dark?

We had a fun time. The kids took advantage of the different things to do. They rode bikes, panned for gemstones and fossils, and we all had a great breakfast on Sunday.

Beautiful campground right in the middle of it all. You can drive to the beach in less than 5 minutes. Visit Monterey, Big Sur, Santa Cruz, SF and more within a couple of hours! Lots to do around camp too especially for children. Great spot, can’t wait to visit again!

We stayed during the week. It was very nice and peaceful and oh so quite !! All the help was very pleasant. It's been about 6 times we have stayed here and we'll be back....

We have stayed here on several occasions. Have not been disappointed yet. Love the activities for younger children. Love the pool being heated. would like to see some of the park open on Monday thru Thursday.

Overall the staff was always very kind! The pool was heated and the spas were amazing. Great spot if you wanna travel to Santa cruz and monterey. Both are around a 45 min trip away as an FYI.

Stayed here for the holiday weekend. Staff was amazing. Kids stayed busy with tie dye t-shirts, playground, pool, candy bar bingo, palm tree climbing and foam party. They are also very pet friendly. Highly recommend.
