We are right on the beach! Our home is new, clean and beautifully decorated. There is a nice open floor plan with a new modern kitchen and amenities. Our condo is completely equipped, ready to drop your suitcase and start relaxing to the sights and sounds of the ocean. We are in a gated community close to shopping, golf, fine dining and surf. Step out your patio door and listen to the ocean waves crashing onto the shore.

This home is on the beach level - so no stairs to climb. Just walk out to the beach and enjoy! Free high speed wireless. Electric Fireplace, King in the master bedroom, 2 Bunk Bunks and sofa bed in the guest bedroom, perfect for a family getaway. Remodeled kitchen & baths bring a touch of luxury!

Admire the beauty of the sand dunes and enjoy miles of untouched shoreline. Collect sand dollars on the beach and watch the wildlife right outside your window. From seals, sea otters, whales, snowy plovers, to the magical sights of the pelicans flying overhead, step back and truly soak in the relaxation.

Amazing!

We loved every second of our trip! The windows looked out onto the sand dunes with a beautiful cypress tree. Check-in was easy. The condo was very clean. The furnishings were comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked. The beach was only 100 steps away. Our stay was perfect!

Relaxing Girls Trip

Condo was great for a mother daughter stay. Location was beautiful, love the proximity to the beach and the comfy seating on the outdoor patio. Condo was clean, updated and very well stocked for a weekend cooking in. Have stayed in several Pajaro Dunes condos and this is one I would definitely hope to return to.

Quiet and Relaxing

The condo is in a very relaxing and quiet beachside community. So quiet that it felt like we had the place to ourselves. The beach is beautiful and peaceful. This is a very secluded location, but there a nearby town with plenty of amenities and shops. Easy day trips to Santa Cruz and Monterey make this a great location.
