Venetian Court, Historic seaside resort in Capitola, United States.
Venetian Court is a historic resort set along the waterfront in Capitola, consisting of two rows of colorful buildings styled with Mediterranean and Spanish Colonial Revival details. The complex holds 24 privately owned townhouses available for vacation rental and a 17-unit hotel section.
