Exceptionally clean and beautifully decorated. The perfect setting ......pond in one direction and sea grasses and the beach in the other direction. Pajarro Dunes is a one of a kind complex on the coast and is very close to Santa Cruz beach and Boardwalk. Also very close Monterey Aquarium and Pacific Grove.... as well as Carmel and Point Lobos.It was hard to visit everything that was close. I just wanted to relax and enjoy the comfy unit and fireplace. If we forgot anything, there was a market and Target within a few minutes. Lovely place. Lovely stay!
