About this property

Serene & Modern~ Ocean Front View~ 2 Bd 2 Bth~1st Fully Remodeled

Welcome to Pajaro Dunes where wispy sea-grass blows in the sea air on miles of uncrowded, white sandy beaches. Our secluded vacation home community offers the best of California Coastal living!

Serene and modern, this spacious 2 bed - 2 bath fully renovated condo has ocean views throughout.

While overlooking the ocean from the living room you will appreciate the warmth of the fireplace on chilly evenings.

Maser bedroom w/ en-suite bathroom and an abundance of natural lighting. Two twin beds in the second bedroom and a 2nd full bathroom offer our guests comfort during your stay.

A fully appointed kitchen and large dining table perfect to share a meal, a game of cards or a lovely chat at the end of an adventure filled day.

Vacations are cherished experiences. A romantic get-away, a peaceful retreat with friends/family, an inspirational place to work from home, or looking to get in touch with nature. Here you can and watch the seals, dolphins and otters play in the surf and perhaps even a peek at the migrating whales. You'll find egrets & herons, pelicans soaring overhead or sandelings darting across the sand. There is no shortage of wildlife on land or sea.

Come to relax and enjoy all that our private gated community has to offer or venture out to the nearby towns of Capitola, Monterey, Carmel and Santa Cruz Boardwalk.

Our Association offers Bonfires on the beach with Smores, and the best part is that the staff at Pajaro Dunes will set up everything for you.

There is also a convenience store on the premises with an amazing selection of food, wine and sundries. Forgot something? No problem...this convenient shop has thought of almost everything, is open 7 days a week and also offers great gifts and souvenirs to remember your trip.

Sorry...we do love furry, four-legged friends, but in consideration of all guests, we do not allow pets.

The dunes at Pajaro await you!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Our only complaint was that the bed frame in the master bedroom needs to be replaced as it has an obvious fracture somewhere that causes the bed to creak very annoyingly with movement. Otherwise great location , Very quiet and restful experience. Will be coming back again in the future.

Absolutely FABULOUS!The condo is beautifully decorated and they provided us with everything we needed for the beach: chairs, umbrella, towels…! The washer dryer had us pack less & they even had a steamer and iron! The location is remote so we felt like we could unplug & just relax! Our son graduated from college and this was the PERFECT place for everyone to decompress, connect & celebrate our graduate! Thank you Maria for providing such a great home for us to be together!

Shannon and Candice were absolutely wonderful hosts! They provided a quiet, peaceful sanctuary for my family to gather during an important planning event. This is a true space where we could work, rest, and enjoy the tranquil surroundings. While the property feels beautifully secluded from the day-to-day hustle, it remains close enough to easily access everything we needed. Gathering in downtown Morgan Hill for dinner with extended family and returning to the comfort of the Guest House was both convenient and highly productive for our needs. I strongly recommend Shannon, Candice, and their exceptional Guest House for anyone visiting the Bay Area.

Host profile image
Dear Guests,

Welcome to our Beach Home! My husband and I live in Saratoga, California. We have (2) adult sons and we recently purchased this beautiful retreat at Pajaro Dunes. I am a Construction Manager for a real estate developer in Los Gatos, and my husband is in construction.

I am an experienced Short Term Rental Host, as I managed my boss's (4) luxury estates for 5 years. This listing is new so we don't have any reviews, however I have 5 star ratings on all the properties I have ever managed and I promise to bring that experience and commitment to our properties.

Please note that we have properties coming online in Maui, Sierra Nevada, Saratoga & High Point NC soon!

We look forward to having you as our guest!!!
Maria
