Our favorite annual beach getaway

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.

Beautiful beach property

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.

Great Place

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!

Winter getaway

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.

Family trip

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.

Great family home

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.

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!

Beautiful Home On the Beach

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.

Blissful Paradise

Stayed a few days with my wife and boys here. This is a fantastic place with a scenic view of the ocean off the back patio. Master suite has a slider door to exterior deck along with an exit from the living room . Everything was newly updated and in beautiful condition. The house keeping staff did a wonderful job with cleaning and sanitation. Fireplace and wall heaters kept us very warm . Kids loved the shared room with bunk beds .The private beach is pristine . Perfect place for a quiet family getaway. Property is upkept . There is definite owner pride in this unit. We visited both Monterey Bay Aquarium and Roaring Camp Railroad with about a 35 min drive either way. We had a blast on our stay .

Beautiful Property -- Relaxing Getaway

This property and location are outstanding. The beach was so easily accessible for my family. It was nice to have morning coffee looking at the coastline or taking strolls on the beach in the afternoon. There is an abundance of sea shells and my kids really enjoyed finding these gems. The home itself is so well taken care of and if I can describe in one word -- it would be tranquil. The home decor, furniture, bedding, fireplace, kitchen amenities were well set up and structured for a family and aesthetically pleasing (this makes a difference)! Important to note, you are a few miles from a grocery store, however, there was no problem having food and groceries delivered. It made things a bit easier! This property is definitely a "MUST". You will not be disappointed.
