    Complimentary gift wrap. Guess you get what you pay for...
    Cynthia B.

    I came here for the second time today. We were greeted as we entered and offered assistance. I was looking for a gift for a 1st birthday party. Luckily, I found something immediately. However, when I arrived at the register I was ignored for a personal conversation that the employee was having on the phone. So, I informed her that I would like to buy something. But, she held up her index finger to inform me to wait a minute. In hindsight I should have walked out, but purchased anyhow. I asked for gift wrap and it was done free of charge. I hate to cause extra waste, but I will be re-wrapping this... and posting a pic. I tried supporting my local business today. But, I may look to Childish or Amazon next time.

    This is a toy and gifty store right off the Esplande in Capitola. Parking in this area is a critical and hard to find resource. There is street parking of course and if you are ever able to find a spot on the street go buy a lottery ticket as you are one lucky duck. The Esplande (the stretch of road facing the beach) also has public parking which in summer 40,000 people will be trying to get to. My personal recommendation is parking a little bit farther away-that surface lot behind the police station works very nicely-and walking it on in. This is a smaller to medium sized store jam packed with fun stuff. They have a lot of kites ranging in technological scope from something made in china with the cheapest possible plastic for a toddler to break opening up the package to fairly significant parafolis which can be used to loft small children surprisingly high into the air, which you should totally not do because everyone gets all excited and shouty then police come and no one ever lets you live it down. They also have a better then usual collection of beach toys-the kind you want to keep as opposed to the kind that break when anyone tries to play with them, a variety of toys for children and emotionally immature adults of all ages, beach chairs, beach balls, towels, other beach stuff, collectibles such as Beatles metal lunch boxes - the kind that have pictures of the Beatles on it, not the kind that the band actually ate lunch out of- and in general a whole lot of eclectic awesomeness. The pricing ranges from "Yeah that's just a couple of bucks or so" to "They want HOW much for that?" Something for every price range is what I'm saying. Just need something small that says "been to Capitola" ? They've got it. Need some fashionable indestructible beach gear or a small sturdy child sized chair to attach to the parafoil? They've got that as well. For the most part this is worth a browse if you need a gift, or otherwise just have a sense of whimsy.

    One of the most magical stores there ever was. Make sure to take your kiddos and your inner child in before you leave town.

    We bought a kite and some "unpoppable" bubbles made my day.

    This was a lovely store that had so much to offer. This cute shop was packed full of clothing, home…read moredecor, and other wonderful items. After reading previous review reviews, I was a little apprehensive, walking in knowing what many others had experienced with their customer service. I will say when I walked in there was somebody who promptly greeted me and my husband, when we walked in and made some small talk. As we peruse the store, I did experience a little of what other people were saying as the employee seemed to keep popping up to chat with us as we per the store. I can understand why some customers may think that it may come off as the employees are watching you while you shop. I don't think that was what was happening at all. I think they were trying to definitely just be more friendly and welcoming, but I think they do need to tone down how many times they pop up while you are walking around the store. All of the items they have to offer are a fabulous quality and definitely a great spot to pick up gifts for others. When I'm in the area, I will definitely pop in and shop again.

    This store has a ton of unique items that are PERFECT for gifting. I wish I found this shop before…read moreChristmas. The price point is expensive but expected at a small boutique store such as this. I could spent hours in here looking at all of the different items. My friend was coming in to exchange an item or swap it out for another item. After shopping around and finding another jacket that she liked we inspected the jacket because it was white and we wanted to make sure it was free of damage. We came across black marks on all of these white jackets and brought it up to an employee at the front. They attempted to clean it with a paper towel and maybe water? But unfortunately no luck. They mentioned that she could try to clear it with upholstery cleaner after she purchased it but at the price point of over $100 my friend decided to pass. She ended up returning her item and receiving store credit. The reason for my 3/5 rating is due to the expensive clothing being stained and the awkward exchange. Overall, I would come back and give this place a chance when in need of a unique gift.
