- "Nice family trip to the beach. The condo was spacious and the primary bedroom was fantastic. The other two bedrooms were small, but were still accommodating. The property is very well maintained. There’s paths to walk on for a nature walk and the beach has some hard sand that makes long walks on the beach very easy to do. There were 6 of us that went and there was plenty of space. Great stay!"

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is located with a beach and ocean view. There is a walkway down to the beach right next to the house! Quiet neighborhood even though very friendly." - "I wanted to go to the beach for my 58th. My two best friends and my two daughters and I got to spend my bday in this very nice home. Honestly, there was a very musty smell when we arrived but the house was very clean! We opened the windows and aired it out and it was all good. We sat out on the deck during the day and at night. To hear the ocean while you're sleeping?? What a bonus! We also saw Dolphins from the deck! We did drive down to the beach instead of taking the trail and steps. Old knees lol. All in all..great place to stay and had a fantastic time!"

- "We booked this trip to spend time with my step father who was given 6 months to live - terminal cancer. We wanted to go somewhere not to far for the whole family before he got too sick to travel. We spent our time enjoying walks on the beach and took advantage of the fire pit on the beach. We even got to see the bioluminescence in the water at night which was a great treat! We grew up going to PD a couple of times a year with my family, so we explored old spots and got one last trip with everyone together."

- "We Are family from Germany at roadtrip to the northwest. Very nice, clean place. Very well equiped. Directly at the Beach. We really enjoyed the stay. Awesome Place!!!" - "House and property exactly as described. Beautiful and peaceful location. Partial view of the ocean at the back of the house. Could hear the ocean from the house nicely. The view of the farmland and mountains from the front of the house was unexpectedly stunning, pictures do not do it justice! The walk to the beach was less than 1 minute, I walked it barefoot several times. We went mid June and the beach was barely populated. The weather was calm in the morning and then the wind would pick up quite a bit by noon. One of the days we were there it was only mildly windy. The beach was beautiful and VERY clean. We played basketball at the community area one day. The community facilities were very nice. The equipment for the basketball, tennis courts, volleyball etc was kept in a small storage arena that wasn't well labeled, but we found it. At the house, there was a cabinet with many games by the phone, built into the counter area. There was corn hole equipment, but we couldn't find any of the sacks to throw. There was a somewhat odd smell in the closets and sometimes rooms. I would definitely come back to this house again with my family. My husband and I would also definitely return to Pajaro Dunes Community to a smaller house or condo with just the 2 of us."

House 46 at Pajaro Dunes is a family nest, a gem, the ultimate seaside cottage you've been looking for! This is full Oceanfront yet at a price-point families can afford -- and still amazing, squeaky clean, and homey. Yes it is a unicorn! Close your eyes and hear the sound of seagulls, the ocean breeze and laughter of friends and family enjoying this amazing home.
Enjoy unobstructed views from Santa Cruz to Monterey from the all-glass sunroom lounging on recliners and sipping your favorite beverage. Watch for whales, dolphins and otters and enjoy fiery orange sunsets. Enjoy dining on the back deck, or walk the short distance to the beach stairs and enjoy miles of unobstructed sand from Pelican Point to the south, all the way past Aptos to the north.
Did we mention you can drive up to the home directly and park in a 2-car garage? Garage storage means you get beach stuff to use! No need to navigate the Pajaro Dunes boardwalks to stay in this home, which also sits a very short walk from pickleball, tennis, basketball and volleyball courts. In every way, the location and setup of this home are ideal for family travelers.
The living room, dining room and kitchen all face the ocean with full ocean views. Look for whales and dolphins! The three-sided river rock fireplace is charming and cozy. A back deck runs the length of the home, and an ocean view sunroom allows for beach watching while fully indoors. The sunroom makes this home particularly great for grandparents who want to watch little ones enjoy the beach but not walk down. Most of the home is on one level, with just three steps separating the living room area from the 'bedroom wing.'
This home sleeps up to 12 adults/kids on comfortable beds, in the following configuration. Note this is a three-bedroom home with the largest bedroom "split" in half with a curtain to allow both a king bed and a queen bed sharing a room.
(1) Primary: king bed and en suite bathroom, some ocean view (sleeps 2);
(1A) Sitting Room: adjoins master (separated by a curtain not wall), has queen mattress, sink, and ocean view (sleeps 2);
(2) Second en suite bedroom: king bed and bathroom (sleeps 2);
(3) Hall bedroom: a queen bed, plus a set of twin bunks, plus a loft with a double futon platform bed (sleeps 6), share hall bathroom
The sleeping arrangements are flexible such that the primary bedroom and adjoining sitting room can be a 'family' bedroom using the queen pull-out couch. They are separated by a curtain. Or, the hall bedroom can also be a 'family' bedroom as it has a queen bed plus a set of twin bunks, plus a double futon mattress in a cool loft that kids love.
The separation between the bedroom wing and the gathering rooms in this home provides excellent privacy when needed for contemplation, alone time or a peaceful midday nap.
The large, updated kitchen can accommodate multiple chefs to create amazing feasts for your group. A wall oven plus a microwave and stovetop, two sinks, and all the pots, pans, plates, cutlery, glassware and cook's tools you could want. (There is also easy and fast delivery from nearby Watsonville, choose from Chinese or Pizza!) A new Weber propane BBQ is right outside the kitchen on a deck sheltered from ocean breezes where outdoor furniture allows you to relax and eat outside (we provide propane plus a spare). An extra fridge in the garage is a great resource for storing ice, food and drinks for your group's entire stay.
House 46 also offers dedicated wifi for surfing, working or streaming, plus flat-screen TVs, Comcast cable channels, and Blu-Ray DVD players. It also has beach supplies, toys and games for kids, and an extensive book and DVD lending library. We have a high chair and pak n play for the little ones, along with step stools in every bathroom.
WIFI is FAST in the whole house! >500 Mbps at router with extender pods throughout the home. 5 sets of desks and chairs in bedrooms plus the dining table and breakfast bar... lots of options!
Because only those occupying Pajaro Dunes accommodations can enter the community, the state park beach at Pajaro Dunes is quiet and you may have it all to yourself much of the time. Activities abound in Pajaro Dunes, including surfing, tennis, basketball, sand volleyball, shuffleboard, birding, and shelling (all inside the community).

Nestled along the Monterey Bay is one of the most scenic stretches of California's central coastline. Spanning 1 1/2 miles of pristine beach, the house is in a secluded, gated community with a collection of beautiful beachfront homes.
Perfect family vacation, Pajaro Dunes is located 4 miles West of Watsonville, and 20 miles South of Santa Cruz which is home of the Beach Boardwalk and Santa Cruz Mountain Redwoods. 20 minutes to Monterey.
- "The house was nice and clean and available even earlier then check-in time which was great! The views were amazing there was plenty of room and beds for our whole big family. I would note that there is no direct beach access from the house but there is a short path and about 25 stairs down to the water. I only mention this because we had some older family members that have trouble with the stairs. The kitchen had everything we needed except some bbq tools which we picked up at target and left for the next people. All in all it was a great place to stay and would definitely recommend."

Beautiful, fresh and updated beach house comfortably nestled between two miles of private pristine sandy beach and the soothing fragrant eucalyptus grove. This comfortable and completely updated and furnished 4 bedroom, 2 bath, three story home with an amazing ocean view, is located in the gated community of Pajaro Dunes, located between Monterey/Carmel, and Santa Cruz on beautiful Monterey Bay. Just one hundred yards to the ocean, this beach house has something for everyone!
Within the gates of Pajaro Dunes Resort, enjoy two miles of private sandy beach to sun, surf, fly a kite, stroll or have an evening bonfire on the beach. If that's not enough, you can become one with nature and bird watch out your back door at the wildlife sanctuary, play tennis, shoot hoops, walk or ride bikes on the beautiful trails. Maybe you want to be more adventurous--like kayaking with the harbor seals and otters in nearby Elkhorn Slough, or maybe a day of deep sea fishing on beautiful Monterey Bay, or how about swinging your clubs at one of the many local golf courses or visiting one of the many local wineries. There's definitely something for everyone!
There's so much to see in the Monterey/Carmel area including abundant specialty shops, restaurants, Monterey Bay Aquarium, Monterey Pier, and Cannery Row, just to name a few. A few minutes to the north is the town of Santa Cruz with its ever famous Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, home of the all wooden roller coaster--The Big Dipper. Ride an old steam locomotive through the Santa Cruz Mountains making a stop to enjoy a picnic lunch surrounded in the beauty of the redwood forest. Enjoy a day of wine tasting at one of the many local, award winning wineries. Again, there's most definitely something for everyone!
Easy to get to, Pajaro Dunes is just an hour south from San Jose International Airport, or minutes from Watsonville Municipal Airport for private fly-ins.
- "This property was perfect for a Monterey golf trip. The house was very clean and comfortable with all the amenities for a great stay." - "This multi-level house had plenty of space for our family (7 adults and 2 children) and was furnished nicely. The beds were very comfortable. We loved the ocean views, the many decks, and being able to walk to the beach so easily. We hope to stay there again." - "Enjoyed a weekend stay with friends to celebrate my husband's birthday. The house was clean and inviting and a good amount of space for the 7 of us. It was an easy walk to the beach and had several outdoor seating areas to take in the views and sounds of the sea. Thank you!"

Pajaro Dunes is a quiet gated community of custom homes with diverse architecture located half way between Santa Cruz and Monterey. Our house is directly on Sunset State Beach where you can walk for miles along the white sand beach.
This 1,600 square foot beach front home has four bedrooms, three baths and an unobstructed 180 degree view of the ocean.
Our kitchen has maple cabinets and granite counters. The house is very well insulated which makes for cozy evenings in front of the Danish wood burning stove.
A great room with kitchen, dining, and living room is on the upper floor along with two master bedrooms. From here the view of the Pacific is unobstructed from Monterey to Santa Cruz. The kitchen includes all the essentials for cooking and baking and includes a new GE induction range. In the evening you can enjoy a movie on the 58" 4K Sony smart TV.
This home is ideal for two couples and four or five children. (We recommend no more than six adults and suggest that more than eight total visitors will be tight.) The two upstairs bedrooms have both valley and ocean views. Each has new Avocado king beds and its own compact bathroom with tub/shower.
The downstairs is designed for children; The south bedroom has four twin beds (one is a trundle.) The north bedroom has two twin beds (one is a trundle) and a full bed. A compartmented bathroom with shower shares space with a new washer and dryer. The covered entry area has plenty of space to store beach toys.
Our house is powered by a photoelectric array, for a very green experience. Feel free to plug in your electric car in our 110v plug (4 MPH charge). A mile away at the Gatehouse are two Charge Point electric car chargers (both level II). (This is not shown on the ChargePoint app. but is available to any Pajaro Dunes visitor.)
The area abounds in bird life, and more than a hundred species winter on Monterey Bay. Depending on the season, dolphins and sea otters frequent the waters, and on rare occasions one may spot breaching or spouting whales.
There is a driveway with on site parking for two or three cars. (The majority of beach front homes at Pajaro Dunes are reached by boardwalk). The tennis courts are a short walk from the house. Please note that although our house is located just above the beach, the beach is accessed by a boardwalk three doors down.
Our insurer requires a signed contract for all visitors.

- "My family and I spent another week at Jerry's and it was fantastic. We love this location—close enough to Monterey and Carmel for little day trips, but far enough to avoid the daily tourist traffic. We saw dolphins, seals, and a very curious sea otter from our seats at breakfast; speaking of, we appreciate the fully appointed kitchen with lots of dishes and serving plates for beautiful family meals." - "The property was perfect for a family of three. Two couples stayed upstairs, where there are two bedrooms and each had their own bathroom. One couple stayed downstairs and the rest of our children slept in the other bedroom. Downstairs was a shared bathroom. There is an outdoor sheltered area downstairs (about a 30x30 area), where you can store all your beach and other outdoor items. There is plenty of parking in the driveway (we fit four cars) and plenty of space for parking on the street. The only thing is that the description for the living room states that it is bigger than it actually looks in the picture, but I would say that it did not look any bigger than the picture. But it was still spacious enough for three families. The owners responded fairly quickly with our needs. My family said they would rent the house again."

It is right behind an Ace Hardware so there is some noise in the morning. There was bath gel and shampoo, laundry detergent and dish soap and a vacuum. There is parking on the driveway and some street parking across the street. The bathrooms are updated and there are lots of towels. There is a large TV in the backyard but we didn't use it.

- "This weekend was certainly one to remember. When we arrived, Rob came out to greet us and helped us carry our things to the tent. It was more spacious than you might think, and my partner who is over 6ft was able to easily stand up straight. While we were putting our things away, Rob built us a fire and made sure to point out a small gift that him and his wife wanted to give us for our anniversary. The gesture was incredibly thoughtful and made our night. The next morning, Rob brought us a French press and some oat milk to enjoy while we watched the local wildlife come to life as the fog lifted over the wetlands. Because of all of the flowers near the tent, a few bees and hummingbirds made their morning rounds collecting pollen and nectar just a few feet away from us. It felt pretty magical! It was a beautiful place to stay and made coming back after a long day of adventuring all that much more exciting. Our only regret is not getting a chance to try the solar shower! We're excited to make another trip out soon to enjoy the views and ambiance."

- "We had a wonderful time at the beach in this beautiful ocean front condo. We have gone to Pajaro Dunes as a family for many, many years and this is the first time we have stayed in this condo. We will definitely be back to stay in Pelican 13. It is very clean and comfortable, and the host was very communicative and great to work with. Thank you!!"

- "The location was exceptionally convenient to local sites (Monterey and the Redwoods), as well as being a mere stone's throw from the breathtaking beach views – we were able to enjoy the stunning scenery with minimal effort, truly appreciating the less-than-100-step proximity. The open floor plan created a wonderfully spacious and airy feel, contributing significantly to the overall comfort and relaxation we experienced. The cleanliness of the property was impeccable, exceeding our expectations. Furthermore, the kitchen was exceptionally well-equipped, providing all the necessary appliances and utensils for preparing meals effortlessly. We particularly appreciated [mention a specific appliance or feature you liked, e.g., the high-powered blender, the abundance of cookware, etc.]. The overall experience was one of exceptional comfort and convenience, and we highly recommend your property to others seeking a relaxing and beautiful beach getaway."

The home lies on a private drive that serves our home and the home of our neighbors. Please be respectful of our neighbors who themselves enjoy the peace and quiet of their home. Absolutely no parties or outside amplified music. To make sure this beautiful house continues to be available to future guests we must strictly enforce the house rules. Any violations (e.g., parties, speeding in the neighborhood, etc.) will result in eviction and forfeiture of damage deposit.
Although our home is remote, you’ll be close to the everything that matters:
- Minutes to Nisene Marks State Park
- 10 minutes or less to three State Beaches (Rio Del Mar, Seacliff, Manresa) and many other county and local beaches

Other things to note
Our Bathrooms. This is a 2-bathroom home with one of the bathrooms attached ensuite to the primary bedroom. Please consider this layout when planning which of your guests will have access to which bedrooms and bathrooms.
Our Driveway. Turning onto our driveway involves a fairly sharp turn and navigating a straight but steep driveway. Especially low cars or long vehicles (like a Sprinter van) might not work well. If you think any of this might be an issue for you or your guests, please let us know. We’ll be happy to provide any needed details. We only allow 2 vehicles.
For this reason it’s especially important to allow no more than two cars on the property at any time. Parking on our private, shared street is also not allowed due to the fact that it’s narrow and largely the property of our neighbors.
Our home is private and secluded yet close to everything. So while you'll be surrounded by trees, and will likely never see the neighbors, nor they you, the back of our property runs adjacent to one of the "veins" of access into the foothills and deeper hills of Aptos. This is great for convenience, but also means traffic noise during commute hours is fairly common. We have double-paned doors and windows, but if vehicle sounds are especially problematic, we ask you to consider this before booking
