Our spotless unit faces the sunset; relax by the big picture window and enjoy the view...it's one of the best at Pajaro Dunes Resort.
Located along Sunset State Beach, Pajaro Dunes is close to everything in the Monterey Bay: it's about 15 minutes to Santa Cruz and 30 minutes to Monterey, Pebble Beach, and Carmel. There are dozens of sights to see and things to do...When you feel like feeling sand under your feet, simply walk down a couple flights of stairs past the dunes and you are right on the beach! It is so easy to enjoy the sand and be able to rinse off afterwards at the building's outside shower and rinse off area. Two Beach chairs, beach towels, umbrella, and sand toys are provided for your use. Pickleball courts are here along with tennis courts. Have a bonfire in the fire-pits that are on the beach (fire pits only available during summer months- bring your own required metal bowl for off season).
Come sit by the picture windows and just enjoy the view!
Indulge in the coastal lifestyle and make this bayside condo home on your next getaway to Pajaro Dunes on Monterey Bay!
We are a disabled friendly condo.Wheelchairs and walkers: our condo is accessible by ramp from the parking lot. There is a grab bar and low entry into the master shower.

Excellent view from second floor, no stairs from parking lot to unit which is a plus for us. I like the second bedroom bed arrangement, perfect for our daughter and granddaughter.. Very well equipped unit, including table linens. New sofa and chairs in living room, which are very attractive and comfortable. Left my instant read thermometer on accident, but others can enjoy and I'll buy a new one. First time staying for Thanksgiving and have reservation for next year already and one before that in July to get out of the Valley summer heat.

This is our 2nd stay in this charming condo. It is perfection; beautifully furnished with everything you need plus some. The view is breathtaking, each morning we watched the whales and dolphins swim by. Being soothed to sleep by the ocean waves every night was so relaxing.Thank you Laura for sharing your treasure by the sea, we will be back soon!

Incredible ocean views greeted us the moment we entered this beautiful recently remodeled condo. The modern kitchen was well stocked, the living room furniture was comfortable, and the master bedroom/bathroom was lovely. It was evident that the owner considered every detail to ensure a relaxing and wonderful beach vacation for guests. We really appreciated how clean and comfortable it was, and the attention to beach theme decor. This two-bedroom condo was the perfect place to relax cooking family meals, playing games, watching movies and for visiting. The view was amazing, and the sounds of the ocean was very calming. We were graced with the view of many dolphins swimming close to shore. Thank you, Laura, for a wonderful beach vacation!

All the plumbing worked. Appliances worked great. Electronics and Wi-Fi worked good. Furniture was comfortably worn. The layout is great. we had 7 people. The view from the living room is as advertised. The magical view is sitting on the high top table and chairs on the balcony. Glorious.

Amazing stay

We felt so lucky to stay at such a beautiful property right on the beach! The place was very well-appointed, and the location was fantastic! Wish we could have stayed longer! Would love to visit again. The master bed was a little too soft for me, but otherwise, not a single complaint from the whole group. We’re so happy we stayed here.

This is a family owned condo. We are three siblings (twins and our brother) that have shared ownership since 1990. It was bought by our parents and passed down to us. We are happy to share our Pajaro Dunes home with you!

Why they chose this property

Pajaro Dunes Resort is a hidden gem. It is a beautiful spot to enjoy the California coast without all the crowds. You can also get to Santa Cruz or Monterey area very quickly. We like to say it is CENTRALLY ISOLATED!

What makes this property unique

We love the way you can sit and look out the picture window and see the Monterey Bay!
Take the stairs to the beach and Walk a few steps and you are on the sand...
Sleep to the sounds of the waves crashing on the beach.
We just upgraded with new flooring, doors and bathrooms and the kitchen will be done by May 2023!
