This place was perfect for our two-family weekend getaway. The unit location is amazing and the condo is very clean and well equipped. The check in process was a little clunky because it involves a few steps with different gatehouses, but everyone was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay there again.

We have been going to Pajaro Dunes annually for 15+ years. This property was by far one of the best given it's quietness and location and proximity to the beach. Absolutely loved it.

Our second time staying here . Beautiful place in a prime location to the beach. Kids had a blast playing in the sand and our adult children fished off the beach. Very clean and well managed. Beach is pristine and up-kept well . We will be returning next year.

We had a great time - location was great, the unit was very very clean (loved the added touch of the bow on the toilet paper and towels), lights switches could have been confusing but the owners took the time to label everything. Very impressed!

The condo was clean and comfy. The kitchen is very well stocked as there's not a lot of close locations to dine out or get groceries. We were there during an intense storm so we couldn't take advantage of being right by the beach, but it was so nice to be able to walk to the beach. The check in process was seamless.

What a beautiful home! Everything was as described. Clean, spacious and very well situated to beach access just steps away! We spent a weekend with all our adult children and we had plenty of space and cooking vessels and utensils at our disposal. That made it so easy to save money and eat a nice meal at the house. We would definitely book again.

Hello Linda,
We are very happy that you and your children had a wonderful time and that there was enough space for all of you to cook and enjoy some home cook meals. Hope to see you soon at Pajaro Dunes Resort
We had a great stay and are already planning to come back next year. The bunk bed room with books and toys for the kids was a hit. Beach access was amazing and so simple. The kitchen had everything we needed and more.
The check in process was a bit jumbled as the security check points sent is back and forth before realizing we needed to go into front desk but that was minor.
We did Roaring Camp one day and the boardwalk the other and the location couldn’t be better.

Melissa, thank you so much for this amazing & detailed review! This owner definitely created a family home vibe so we are very happy that you enjoyed it! We hope the check in process is better for you the next time you arrive. It's definitely best to come to the front desk first always if its during business hours (8am-5:30pm).
We'll see you again next year!
Warmly,

We had a wonderful stay here at this Pajaro condo. It worked out perfectly for our family of 4 (two kiddos 3 & under) and our best friends' and their children (two kids 6 & under). Although it was a bit tight quarters, we really felt very comfy. Location was exactly as described and communication overall was good. We did notice some damage to the condo like floor boards that were coming up which presented a tripping hazard. The front porch light was also out so getting into the door at nighttime was a little tricky. Other than that - it was wonderful. Thanks for the stay!

We’re thrilled the condo worked well for your family and friends.

We’re so glad you had a wonderful stay and hope to welcome you back soon!
This location was absolutely beautiful with easy beach access. Furnishing was comfortable and the check in/out process was a breeze. It was a quick 30 minute drive to Monterrey to the aquarium and nice dining within a 20 minute drive. The only down side was allergies that all the adults had while in the home. All of us were left sneezing and the sniffles that went away as soon as we went outside. This was odd because the home itself appeared rather clean. Otherwise I would give this place a 10/10.
