About this property

Beachfront Condo with Spectacular View

The unobstructed view of the ocean waves takes your breath away from the moment you walk through the front door. Let’s face it, that’s what you’re here for, so put your bags down, and take it in for a while from the living room or balcony. Keep an eye open for occasional sightings of an otter drifting by, dolphins riding the surf, and perhaps even whales! Enjoy the frequent visits from the sweet hummingbirds that come to drink from our feeders on the balcony. This clean and comfortable condo is located on the third floor, facing West for spectacular sunsets.

You will also enjoy the beautiful furnishings and decor in the interior of the condo during your stay. The master bedroom shares the ocean view, with access to the balcony, and has a California king size bed with a goose down mattress topper and goose down pillows. The second bedroom has two queen size beds with goose down pillows.

Take a short drive to dine out in Aptos, Capitola or Moss Landing, or grill up your own delicacies on the BBQ. Enjoy a cozy evening by the wood burning fireplace, catch your favorite movie on the flat screen T.V. hooked up with cable and/or the Blu Ray DVD player, have some laughs over the plentiful stock of games, and stay connected with free Wi-Fi.

Pajaro Dunes Resort is nestled approximately 20 miles south of Santa Cruz, and 30 miles north of Monterey. Located at Sunset State Beach, you can enjoy long strolls to Manresa State Beach and beyond. Spend a fun-filled day kayaking with the otters at Moss Landing, just a ten minute drive. Boogey board, surf or fish right outside the condo. Watch the extensive variety of birds while strolling around the Shorebirds pond, or enjoy a friendly game of tennis, pickleball, or basketball on this beautiful and peaceful property.

Wonderful Stay!

Brought the family to Sally’s place. Couldn’t have been a better trip. Great condo, steps from the beach. Very comfy for the five of us. It was Super clean and had everything you need—literally you don’t need to bring a thing, from beach towels, to basic supplies, even boggie boards. Be sure to hit Freedom meats for some

Wonderful place to stay

Condo has a fantastic view and is well appointed for a comfortable stay (nicely furnished, kitchen set up well for meal prep, laundry and bathrooms well supplied). Sally is a great and thoughtful host. Pajaro Dunes Shorebirds is a wonderful place to stay and this is a great unit. Oh yes - play some Pickle Ball while there - it is a blast, and a lovely group frequently meets there on Saturdays that welcomes beginners.

So many great memories made ❤️

This condo was perfect for our family of 4; ocean view from the family room, master bedroom, & patio. We had multiple visits from hummingbirds who came to eat from the feeders on the patio. The beach is quiet & peaceful, the condo has everything you need; very comfortable & homey. Owner is very easy to work with! We will definitely be returning on our next beach visit!

Quiet in March

This condo was clean, tidy, tastefully-decorated. Amazing view of the ocean, looking north to Santa Cruz. If it’s beach time you want, you couldn’t have a better location than Pajaro Dunes. We were here in March and there was barely anyone else here. Watched otters playing in the water from the living room on calm water days.

LOVED IT!!

We didn’t want to leave! The view was amazing! Right on the beach! No road, traffic, or noise. The beach felt almost private. The condo was decorated really cute. The owner was wonderful to work with. Our 40 year old son, wife, and 7 year old granddaughter had so much they didn’t want to leave long enough to go to the Monterey Bay Aquarium (which they had planned to do). This place was perfect!

Seeing our family.

The condo was clean and comfortable. Very well stocked. The furnishings were very adequate. The beach was the best part of the experience. Very private and clean. We saw dolphins everyday, we saw whales on two separate occasions and a seal wandered by occasionally. All on this beach! Sally was easy to work with and very responsive. Thanks for the opportunity to enjoy this space. God Bless Tim Sutherland

Whale Watching from the Living Room

The view from the living room is spectacular. We were able to see whales, otters, dolphins, and seals. Our walks on the beach were wonderful with very easy access. Our only disappointment was that there is no wifi even though it is listed has having secured access. We did need to conduct a little bit of business but could not due to this problem. Our host said she would look into it, but we never heard back from her and the problem was not resolved. We still had a fabulous time. This area is beautiful!

Great location, needs some attention in the condo

It was overall fine. I gave it 4 stars because: The cleaners used far too much bleach in the master bedroom shower, it was to strong - we tried airing out the room but it didn't really remove the smell. We kept the bathroom door shut, but going in there was horrible. The quilt/cover was blood stained at the top end. We stayed 2 nights and wanted to take walks and cook, relax there in the evenings, not drive out to eat. The kitchen was adequate but not great - basics like a grater, more glasses (It seemed many had been broken and not replaced), an adequate chopping knife would be good. It just seemed that more attention could be made to looking over things. It's not a cheap rental and some aspects let the place down. But the view is wonderful. Living room good. Short walk to the beach through the complex. The location is stellar. We enjoyed it despite above comments for a 2 night stay. On the way out we ate in Watsonville at an excellent Mexican restaurant, Jalisco - highly recommend it.

The only negative was that there was no response to me from the host. I had trouble connecting my computer to the wifi. The password given in the instructions was different from what was noted on the router. I tried all combinations with no luck. I emailed the host to confirm the password and network name with no response. I had to use my phone as my hot spot causing me data costs. no good concerning the cost. I won't use or suggest this location.

There to celebrate mom’s 90th birthday. The stairs were hard for her to walk up, but that was part of the description. Also the shower was hard for her to get in and out of. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay.

Little piece of Heaven

Loved the location and view of this property. We had rented this condo a couple of years ago for a family reunion with family from Missouri. So when family from Texas wanted to do a reunion, we decided to rent the same spot. You could literally watch the sunset from the living room if you wanted to- but we preferred to experience it from the beach. Our family was amazed when they walked in and saw the view from the living room window. The unit was well furnished and we felt right at home for our stay. We prefer to do most meals at the condo- but did also experience some of the local restaurants during our stay- as well, which were wonderful, as well.

Breath taking views, well decorated.

I think this home should be advertised for couples. The primary bedroom is the only one worth the price. The back bedroom was terrible. The beds were very uncomfortable, can’t see or hear the ocean and the mattresses were covered in plastic. Maybe ok for kids.
