Lovely! The ocean view wasn’t as direct as we had hoped. Other houses were in the way, but the beach was super accessible and we could hear the waves at night. The whole process of renting went smoothly and the house definitely met our needs.

Family vacation

We enjoyed our family vacation. One family member has a terminal illness so it most likely will be a last trip. This is a beautiful location and I’m thankful everyone made the effort. The only disappointment was there was no ping pong table but it was still an enjoyable experience. Thank you

Steps from the beach; perfect for a group

We had an amazing stay at this house! We were a group of 11 with 3 families and it fit us wonderfully. The teenagers loved the downstairs room. There was plenty of space for all of us at the table. The best part is that we were just steps from the beautiful beach. We really appreciated the communication from the office. We were in the middle of major January storms and so the check-in process was a little different. They called before we arrived to be sure that we were set. During our stay, there were evaluations in the vicinity and they checked in to be sure that we had the necessary information. It made us feel safe, despite the weather.

Great place but VRBO’s pricing was not a bargain! Will not use VRBO again! P

Not happy with VRBO! Pajaro Dunes offers 3 nights for cost of 2! VRBO charged me an extra $600 for 3rd night! I asked for a refund for that 3 rd night! Have not gotten a response! Very poor! I expect a reply and at least a partial refund on that 3rd night from VRBO! Stay was great but very poor business practice from VRBO!

Our stay was good but there were a few inconveniences

Our stay was good but there were a few inconveniences. 1) The bbq had normal wear and tear holes in the gas pipe and we were unable to use it. 2) The second floor sliding doors were hard to open esp the one leading to the main balcony 3) There was a stain on the comforter for one of the full beds downstairs so we had to wash the comforter before using it. 4) The kitchen blinds were hard to open and the border of the blinds fell on me while opening the blinds because it’s only secured by magnets. 5) The closet door of the downstairs bedroom with the 2 full beds was off track when we tried opening it. 6) We couldn’t bring all our trash out because there wasn’t any room outside

Hello Michelle, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We’re sorry to hear that your stay wasn’t perfect. We appreciate your comments about the bbq, sliding doors, comforter, kitchen blinds, closet door, and trash outside. We’ll make sure to address these issues so that future guests have a better experience. Please be advised we do have maintenance and housekeeping here for any issues you may come upon. We understand this is not ideal as you are coming down for a vacation but we would have loved to be able to assist at least with providing a new BBQ and having the comforter washed. We hope you’ll give us another chance in the future. Warmest Regards, Pajaro Dunes Team
