The location right on the beach is unbeatable! We loved hanging out in the Adirondack chairs, watching the dolphins swim by. There are a ton of (beach) toys, a great hot tub, and an excellent barbecue. The kitchen is also equipped with everything you might need. Truly a great place for a family vacation!

We were four ladies, celebrating our collective 70th birthday. We were all very impressed with the property. The lovely view of the ocean from the livingroom set the tone for our trip. Each of us had our own rooms which were well appointed. We all slept well, no complaints about the beds.I think our favorite thing was being able to sit, facing the beach outside with our toes in the sand. I think we would gladly return to this property.Note: the pictures of the kitchen mentions a Mocha Master coffee maker. It was not there. Also, the fire pit has been removed because of fire restrictions.

This property is amazing. Host was quick to respond to request. All amenities were described accurately to listing. We had nine people stay here with abundant personal space. The beach chairs on the sandy knoll were perfect for morning and evenings! Would highly recommend this property for a beautiful experience of the dunes.

What a beautiful house! We have stayed at a lot of houses in Pajaro Dunes and this is by far our favorite. One of our favorite parts was how the house is tucked into the dunes, but still has a beautiful view of the ocean. Looking forward to our next trip!

The house was beautiful and very cozy!Although, a few of the other key featured items : the hot tub was very dirty, had a foul odor and never rose above 80' which was unfortunate, and the fire pit that is featured in many of the photos isn't available. We did have a great time :)
