"Our stay was exactly what we were looking for. The unit was clean, modern, comfortable and had everything we could need while away from home. The location is idyllic. Steps from a beautiful, natural beach that is never crowded, always clean and mesmerizing any time of day or night. Easy drive to popular destinations like Monterey, Santa Cruz, Big Sur. The area is very rural with local agriculture fields and an average working class town with convenient shopping and amenities. Nearby we highly...

"I have now stayed at Pajaro Dunes 3 times. As usual love the beach and the spaciousness of the unit for a 4 night stay. The only things this time is the property lighting around our Building (Bldg B) was inadequate, including the lighting of the sign for all building. Secondly using the path from the staircase to the edge of the dunes had 2 covered sand-covered steps, that could not be seen but caused one of us to twist their ankle.(maybe a warning sign could have alerted us.)

"Overall an awesome experience and a beautiful little house on the dunes! The railings on the stairs were wide enough for our kids to fit through so just a little heads up for parents with small children. Also, the bbq is charcoal so if you plan to grill, be sure to plan accordingly."
