This property is indeed a magical place by the sea! It is steps away from one of the most beautiful stretches of beach I have had the privilege to see. The condo is beautiful, and has all the amenities you can think of and more! Deborah is a superior host And is very responsive to anything that her guests need. While I would like to keep this place a secret so that it’s available whenever I want it, everyone should check it out for their getaway!

Another wonderful visit. Fantastic views of the ocean, and we love opening the doors, listening to the waves, and feeling the cool ocean breeze. The bed was quite comfortable - being able to adjust it for each person is fantastic. The host is very responsive and friendly, wanting to make sure everything for our stay was just right!

Our Vacay in Paradise
This was our 5th time to stay here and it never disappoints! There’s so much to do because it’s located right between Santa Cruz and Monterey, 30 mins either direction. But if you just want to stay put and relax, you have a beautiful ocean view and are literally steps away from the beach.This time we brought our 4.5 and 2.5 year old grandkids and made 4 days of beautiful memories!Thank you for sharing your condo Deborah and David!!!

Cozy, comfy & captivating
Truly a magical place by the sea. Excellent hosts with all the accommodations for a home-away-from-home stay. The proximity to the beach and the ocean views are everything we had hoped for. My husband, in particular, enjoyed watching the plentiful hummingbirds. He even got online and purchased the same birdfeeder hoping for the same experience at home! The unit is well stocked. We cooked multiple meals and appreciated the abundance of spices and well stocked dishes and cookware. The bed in the master is a dream. Never have I slept so well away from my own. We immensely enjoyed the more private location. Being halfway between Santa Cruz and Monterey was central to making the most of our time and seeing all the area attractions on our list. Definitely on our list for a 2nd stay.

We had a beautiful vacation in the center of the Monterey Bay Coast. Pajaro Dunes is tranquil and gorgeous, especially if you love shorebirds. This condo was extremely well equipped, so we cooked all our meals at home except for some day trips to Monterey and Santa Cruz. Lovely walks at sunset. We will definitely be back.
