VIEWS TO CALM THE SOUL -- A PERFECT GETAWAY

As soon as you step in the door of this ground level condominium, you've begun to relax. The large picture window with views of both the river and the ocean, and the shoreline of Monterey in the distance, are always visible from the living area (open style living room, a kitchen and dining room).

READ THE REVIEWS FROM OUR PREVIOUS GUESTS... THEY DESCRIBE PELICAN 75 BETTER THAN WE CAN !!! (You'll notice that our location is one of the most frequently mentioned features of where we are in Pajaro Dunes.)

From the 2 sofas in the living room you can read peacefully or watch a film. If you chose to cook, you don't have to be away from the outdoor views and can enjoy a fully-equipped kitchen to prepare happy hour for the beach or to put on the salmon for dinner. The glass doors off the living room take you to the deck, where you'll likely enjoy most meals. (The pelicans usually provide fascinating entertainment.)

The master bedroom, with a California King bed and television, has its own full bath. The 2nd bedroom has 1 double bed with a single trundle underneath. Washing machine and dryer. Second full bathroom. Roku TV. Internet access.

NOTE: Due to fire restrictions outdoor grilling is not permitted. We apologise for any inconvenience.

This gated community includes pickle ball & tennis & basketball courts and lots of bike riding, walking paths.

We had a wonderful time at the condo! It met all our needs, was comfortable, quiet and calming, and easy access to Sunset Beach. While we only stayed for a couple of days, I could easily see us staying for quite a bit longer. Best place we've ever stayed at Pajaro Dunes.
