Wonderful spot. This beach is one of my favorites.Condo had everything we needed.I suggest coasters & more work on cobwebs. First floor shower needs grippers. Perhaps shot glass in kitchen.Thank you.
Overall we absolutely loved our stay. Check in was a bit frustrating because we had 4 tired kids and a car full of groceries and tried to check in at the Dunes but were sent to the check in at the Pajaro Dunes gate, then inside at guest services only to find out there is no key or welcome packet as we were told at the gate at the Dunes and we could just go to the condo. Everyone seemed a little confused and we ended up driving back and forth for nearly 20 minutes.It was bright, spacious, beautifully decorated, and had a wonderful view of the ocean.On the downside, there are no curtains and a large mirror in the living room so we were blinded by the sunlight coming in the evenings while trying to do movie nights with our kids and there were no screens on the windows which wasn’t a problem the first night but the place filled with bugs the second night and was over 75 degrees inside with the windows closed even through it wasn’t even that hot outside. Thankfully we weren’t there during a heat wave.

Thank you for your thoughtful review. We're so happy to hear that you absolutely loved your stay and enjoyed the spacious layout, beautiful décor, and ocean views.
We're also sorry that your arrival wasn't as smooth as it should have been, especially after traveling with four tired kids and a car full of groceries. We understand how frustrating that must have been. We'll use your feedback to work with the gate staff to help make the check-in process clearer for future guests.
Thank you as well for letting us know about the afternoon sun and the lack of window screens. We truly appreciate feedback like this, as it helps us identify opportunities to improve the guest experience.
We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you and your family back again soon.
