We have been to Pajaro Dunes once a year the last three years. This was by far the best time we’ve had. The best view, the most quiet, easy access to the beach. We throughly enjoyed ourselves and, Lord willing, will return.

We really enjoyed staying in this condo. Even though it's a one bedroom, it felt really spacious and roomy. We enjoyed seeing whales and hummingbirds from the balcony. It has everything you would need for a relaxing stay at the beach. Host is gracious and really responsive.

This property is indeed a magical place by the sea! It is steps away from one of the most beautiful stretches of beach I have had the privilege to see. The condo is beautiful, and has all the amenities you can think of and more! Deborah is a superior host And is very responsive to anything that her guests need. While I would like to keep this place a secret so that it’s available whenever I want it, everyone should check it out for their getaway!

My husband and i have visited Sonoma and Napa Valley, and the Russian river valley for 40 years. We decided to try the Monterey/Carmel valley this trip. First, to be oceanfront and have direct access to the beach, made our decision even easier to try the wines in this area and to stay at this condo. We were not disappointed at all. the weather was beautiful, blue skies and in the 60s, perfect conditions for tasting phenomenal chardonnays and pinot noirs. it was so relaxing to come back to the condo and open up a bottle and watch the sunset from our balcony. the condo was roomy and well stocked and very clean. the bed was comfy, and the shower was very nice. we are looking forward to coming back next year when it is a little warmer so we can enjoy the Pacific Ocean. Aside from the great wines, the local breweries have great food and even better hazy IPAs. thank you to the security staff who gave us the peace of mind that we were safe during our visit from Florida. I would highly recommend staying at this condo. five stars.

NorCal coastal retreat

We had a beautiful vacation in the center of the Monterey Bay Coast. Pajaro Dunes is tranquil and gorgeous, especially if you love shorebirds. This condo was extremely well equipped, so we cooked all our meals at home except for some day trips to Monterey and Santa Cruz. Lovely walks at sunset. We will definitely be back.
