Monterey Dune Dream

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Located right by the ocean, you'll be glad you chose this vacation rental for your next trip! Placed in the coveted Monterey Dunes Colony, take advantage of this incredible opportunity to own your slice of the California Coastline along the exceptionally picturesque Monterey Bay. Check out the Salinas River State Beach while you're here, so pack some sunscreen and a bathing suit for a dip in the serene waters or pitch up an umbrella in the sand and read a good book under its shade. Moss Landing State Wildlife Area is six miles away, where you'll have an array of gorgeous wildlife to gaze out at and admire. If you're lucky, you'll catch a glimpse of the migratory birds that land on the shore!

Inside the home, you'll immediately notice the high vaulted ceilings in the spacious living area decorated with lovely paintings, a bright chandelier overhead, and comfortable furnishings. Step out into the back and sit down on the sectional couch and lay your head down on one of its crimson pillows for a power nap. The beach is within walking distance, where you can hear the sound of the waves crashing in peacefulness. Use the full kitchen and its stainless steel appliances for an all-out dinner later in the evening! The electric fireplace will add ambience with a gorgeous view directly from the comfort of your chairs near the windows. You'll also have on-site activities to participate in, such as tennis courts, bocce ball, pickleball, pool, spa, and volleyball court.

We had a great time. The place was very nice. For our group was a little off the shopping path for us. Carmel had a fantastic food tour if anyone is interested.

Lovely house with super views
Our family had a great couple of nights at this property. The layout of the house was lovely and the views of the dunes and tea were just wonderful. It felt very airy, comfortable and relaxing. We enjoyed exploring nearby Moss Landing and seeing all the marine wildlife. Only improvements would be to perhaps improve the blinds at the windows which were a bit flimsy and some of our clothes got spoilt by the washing machine, which probably needs a good clean. Overall we would definitely recommend to other families wanting somewhere chilled to stay near to busy Monterey.

The views and setting are just spectacular. Condo perfect size for our group. Wish we had more time here. Only downfall is ants all over, especially lower level in bathrooms and in washer. Understand due to dunes, etc. Thanks for the opportunity!

Great Vacation Home!!
We loved this house. It fit all of our needs. We had 4 adults and 3 kids. One kid slept on the couch and it was so comfy. We did have an ant issue in one of the downstairs bathrooms. We would have loved a box fan for each room to help push in the cool air from the windows since there is no AC. The beach is so close! The hot tub was small but nice. The pool was great as well.

Together again at the beach
The property was perfect for getting our beach "fix" with good friends. Although it was a little cool, it was still a great place to be together. The setting was perfect, the townhouse was just as it was shown on the website. It was very clean and well equipped. The only thing we found was the bath tubs were very slick for showering, the spices were old or lacking completely, so just bring your own if you plan on cooking. All in all, a great place to stay!

Great Stay Right on the Dunes
Clean, comfortable, well-appointed, stylish property. Hot tub under the almost-full moon a plus. Unusually attractive, comfortable, and clean outdoor furniture for a beach rental. The beach is amazing and full of all kinds of shorebirds, and the plants and flowers on the dunes are stunning. A really special place.

LOCATION!!
This house was perfect for our stay in the Monterey area. The views are amazing, the beach was private and area is secluded. We took a day trip to Big Sur as well as Carmel and the Monterey Bay aquarium. I highly recommend this property.

Moss landing vrbo
This place exceeded our expectations, all except for one thing. The interior lighting is very bright white led lighting throughout, so the spaces completely lose their beautiful warmth when it gets dark outside and you have to turn the lights on. More attention to the quality of lighting would make a huge difference. Otherwise, we all loved this property and location.

Amazingly Peaceful with GORGEOUS views!
Rented this property for the weekend as I was looking for a place to work over the weekend with a view for total relaxation and comfort...this property did ALL that and MORE! Absolutely stunning views built on the dunes and the layout of the property is ideal for a family beach vacation or a couples retreat. Home had all the amenities needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay, bed was comfortable, nice to have private/covered parking, and outdoor areas were vast and inviting. Be sure you stop to gather groceries and other personal things needed as the closest stores are a minimum minute drive. Highly recommend!

Beautiful view but some problems
We loved the location and view and 2 master bedrooms. But we had ants everywhere and many things that didn't work: the shades in the Master bedroom with a view, the garage door would intermittently work, but others times not. The hot tub was cold one night. It appears many of these things have been "jerry rigged" to work a few times, but them break. It appears new equipment should be bought for the screen and the garage door.

Views, Comfort and Stairs
My parents and my family of four stayed here for five days in May and had a lovely time. Having two masters with attached bathrooms was perfect for two couples. (Though only one couple gets the attached patio overlooking the ocean!) With no reviews to go on, I was nervous to book this, but I am SO glad we believed the photos! The views from every level were spectacular, and the window chairs were my favorite perch. My parents prefer high-backed chairs, but we found the sectional super comfy (despite the many pillows). Great beds, too! The kitchen and dining spaces were tight for six adults but were stocked with everything we could possibly need for the two meals we cooked there. We ate our other meals at nearby Sea Harvest in Moss Landing, which had delicious seafood, patio seating and views of otters! Speaking of otters, we found two brand new kayaks and life vests in the garage, which we were able to put in the water on the same pier as Sea Harvest. As we paddled around, we saw five otters and a sea lion. Highly recommend! When we weren't on the water, we were walking along the beach that was only steps away from both the downstairs master bedroom patio and the mid-level patio door by the dining room. Be prepared, with all the levels, there were a LOT of stairs. Other cons: - showers need updating - LOUD bath fans - dinner plates too big for dishwasher - tiny hot tub Other pros: - resort hot tub - shower water pressure - laundry machines - closet space Enjoy!

Nice Location, Nice Place.
Great location for serenity and peacefulness. Nice space and amenities. Note that it is difficult to get Uber or Lyft to come out for pick-ups (even when reserved in advance) but is easy for drop-offs. Very quiet and lovely environment to be a part of.
