Modern Beach Front Pajaro Dunes 1st Floor Condo - Yards From Beach/Gated Entry

Located in the highly desirable gated Pajaro Dunes resort, this modern 2 bedroom, 2 full bath condo is just yards from the beach. Nested in the dunes for added privacy with a peak of the ocean from deck.

This ground level unit is fully equipped and sleeps 6 comfortably with NEW beds in both bedrooms.

Recently remodeled with all the modern conveniences including solid surface countertops, modern kitchen with new stove, and recently remodeled bathroom fixtures.

Not only is the sand dunes and beach just outside the patio, but renters can enjoy all the amenities of the Pajaro Dunes resort including pickleball courts, tennis courts, walking trails, biking trails, basketball court, natural lagoon with native birds and cozy fire pits located on the beach.

Pajaro Dunes is a mile and a half of sun-drenched, white sand beach on a secluded strip of the magnificent Monterey Bay coastline.

Extended monthly stays are welcomed. Please contact for specific monthly rates.

Need a break from the sand? Just hop in the car and within 30 minutes you can be in beautiful Monterey to the south or historic Santa Cruz to the north.

Also, within minutes, is shopping in Watsonville and some of the best Mexican and seafood restaurants in the world.

No pets and no motorcycles allowed, thanks.

Great location for a family getaway

This condo and the Pajaro Dunes resort are great. You are right by the beach and it's truely less than a 5 minute stroll from the door to having your feet in the ocean.This location is also close enough to Santa Cruz to the north and Monterey to the south for an easy day trip.I would stay here again any time.

Hidden charm

Nestled among Watsonville agricultural fields is a quiet ocean resort. A short walk from the complex takes you directly to the beach. Prime location, approx 30 minutes to Santa Cruz or Monterey. Nice condo and host.

Central for visiting Monterey Bay

We spent a day in Santa cruz, in pacific grove, in Monterey. Loved the 17 mile Drive and Pebble Beach. This unit was on the beach but no beach view. We found a great place for breakfast- the Beach Street Cafe in Watsonville.

Girls weekend

Enjoyed our stay at Pajaro Dunes. Comfortable and nicely equipped kitchen. Cozy beds. Host was very responsive when we had a breaker shut off. Outdoor shower outside our unit was not working which was a little difficult to come back from beach but this was not owner’s fault. Would have been helpful to have a broom and dustpan in unit to manage sand. I would recommend this unit for 2 couples or small family.

Amazing location!

My family really enjoyed our stay! We have 4 kids and there was enough space for all of us. Everything was clean and had everything we needed for preparing meals. The location was the best! It was so nice to open the sliding door and listen to the ocean and the beach was just steps away. We enjoyed a fire on the beach every night. The location is perfect; a half hour from Monterey and a half hour from Santa Cruz, but we honestly enjoyed the time at the VRBO the most. We plan to come back again soon. Highly recommended!

Very comfortable housing. Well equipped kitchen. Surroundings/gardens were very nice and well kept. Getting down to and back from the beach was tricky but it was a calm setting.
