Beautiful view
Could not have asked for more. We were out and about most of the day, but coming back to a cozy condo with a beautiful view was amazing. The beds were comfortable, condo was welcoming, and it had everything you may need for an easy stay. The beach is clean and peaceful. We walked the sunset a couple times. Watched the moon light up the ocean from the balcony too! We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Coastal Retreat
We loved our weekend away at the pajaro dunes beach condo! The home was very clean, cozy and welcoming. We felt extremely relaxed and comfortable. The beds were very comfy, the kitchen had everything we needed, the fireplace was cozy and the view was amazing. We saw tons of pelicans and other birds as well as a few adorable otters. It was incredible to be able to just walk a few steps down to the beach and stay all day without the hassle of finding parking or a long drive home. We felt safe and all of the other neighbors were so nice and friendly. It’s a really special place and we’d love to come back.

The property offered a pleasant and clean environment, accurately depicted in the provided pictures. Communication with the VRBO host was excellent. My fiancé and I appreciated the stunning ocean view and the convenient proximity to the beach. The ambiance was tranquil and serene just what we needed. I will definitely book again and bring our tennis racquets next time.

Weekend Away with the Grandparents
We arrived late and had a bit of a snafu. Annette was extremely responsive through messaging and had us up an running within the hour. The place was really relaxing...great views of the ocean. No problem with the amenities. We had some difficultly with the WIFI, but that could be user error. The beds were cozy and it was great to cozy up to a movie at night with the fireplace crackling. I especially liked the access to the various movie apps such as Netflix and Prime video. Great stay. Thanks.

Short break
Very pleasant property with fantastic views of the ocean and the breaking waves. Up high enough to see the surf. Kitchen well stocked with the necessary tools. Beds were comfortable. Had some trouble with the TV not staying connected, but following the provided instructions might have resolved that (didn't try as ran out of time).

Beautiful and cozy oceanfront escape
We absolutely loved this condo in Pajaro Dunes for a weekend romantic getaway for just 2 of us (but would work well for a small family or 2 couples as well). Perfect ocean views (the sunsets!) from the living room window, as well as from the master bedroom and deck, with the sound of ocean waves while you sleep. Condo is cozy, relaxing, very clean, and beach-themed, with comfortable queen beds, reclining chairs and reclining couch, and a fireplace. Kitchen is small and simple but perfectly fine for our needs. Walk out your door and 30 seconds later you are on a beautiful beach that you can walk for miles, including a seabirds lagoon about 1.5 miles south of the property (the pelicans!!!). Really nice that the property owner Annette was on-site and available to help and answer questions. Friendly on-site general store with supplies including beer and wine, 5 minute drive to a Starbucks, and a short 20 minute drive to nice restaurants in Aptos/Capitola. Great spot if you just want to relax, enjoy, but still be able to go north towards Santa Cruz and south to Monterey. We loved it and hope to be back for a longer stay next time.

Lovely view, right by the sand
Spent three very peaceful days enjoying the view and hearing the waves crash. The beach style decor really added to the coastal feel during our stay. The condo had everything we needed, was impecable and the master bed was very comfortable (didn’t use the other room). It has thermostats in every area which was great. Annette was always available when we had questions, helpful and friendly, which made for a wonderful stay. Wheelchair note: there is one steepish incline pathway, which my husband (frail) and I (not too strong pushing) had a little trouble handling. So, if in a W/C, suggest you have a strong person to help push. Otherwise, the entrance and condo are totally accessible. There is ADA parking right be the pathway, which is very convenient.

We stayed at the property for the celebration of our 40th Anniversary and had a wonderful time. My husband played golf and we enjoyed the ocean views for a fun, restful vacation.

Annette’s place is exactly as pictured/described. It has been updated and wonderfully maintained, and is everything you could ask for in a rental - extremely clean, beautiful view (I recommend bringing binoculars to watch the whales, dolphins, etc.), safe and secure location, well stocked kitchen, comfortable furniture, soft sheets and towels, only a few steps to the beach. We hope to return as soon as possible!

Beautiful condo with everything you need for relaxing stay at the beach. We went for four days and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Condo has deck overlooking shore and you can hear the waves at night. My favorite part is the large window in the living room with unbelievable view of beach. Well stocked with towels, blankets and other basics. Perfect for our short get away.

We have been to Pajaro Dunes Resort a few times in the recent past but this was our first time in Annette's unit. The unit looks just like the pictures - updated and with all the amenities that we needed for a quick getaway. My girls were happy to have their own room and bathroom. We were blessed with beautiful weather and spent a lot of time on the beach which was just a few steps away. We will definitely rent this unit again in the future. Thanks for sharing your beautiful place with us, Annette!
