Family Beach Getaway
We all really enjoyed our stay. The living spaces are large and family friendly with lots of comfortable seating. The kitchen is well equipped-in fact, this is the most well equipped VRBO I’ve stayed in. The large covered patios were great. Proximity to the beach and other amenities is perfect. We really loved having a driveway to park in. I would definitely stay here again.

Happy70th Birthday
We loved the property for our family as we had space to spread out whilst being close to tennis as well as other fun site activities like horseshoe, bocce ball but best of all just steps from the beach. We could watch the waves from the deck and had two great barbecues on the back deck along with soaking in the hot tub. We will be back again as everyone loved it.

Really Beautiful Stay
The house is great. The location is amazing. It all makes for a very special vacation. Get your groceries and you really never have to leave! Only one comment for feedback is that the patio could have been cleaned before we arrived. But didn't really matter in the end!

Amazing spot!
This property was so amazing. The views were gorgeous, just steps from the beach. We had a really relaxing stay and would absolutely go again given the opportunity. The only downside is that there isn’t much going on in the little town. But the drive to Santa Cruz or Monterey is not too bad!

Overall A Great Stay
This is our second time staying at this house because we really enjoy it! The layout and amenities are great for our extended family to come and enjoy the beach. With that said, and given the price of renting this property, there are a few suggestions I would give for feedback. 1. The BBQ didn’t work. My husband (who knows his way around a bbq) tried using it for dinners three times and the BBQ wouldn’t hold the temperature like it should. We had to finish cooking our meats inside on the stove. I would have that BBQ looked at. 2. Cleaning the cobwebs from the deck railing would be a nice touch. 3. The spa had a bunch of sand in it upon arrival. It made the spa feel a bit grungy and I didn’t want to use it because of that. 4. The soap dispensers in the bathrooms need to be cleaned or replaced. It was hard to get the soap dispensed because of soap buildup, I think. 5. I really think the house could benefit from putting retractable blinds on the outside second floor deck. The sun comes in so hard in the evening hours. If we could pull the shades down, we could enjoy things a lot more during that time of day. We do love that there are so many great beach chairs and umbrellas available for us to use. The beds are all very comfortable, and the outside shower is perfect. The pool table provides for a lot of added fun at the house. It’s so close to the beach access which is wonderful. A beautiful property indeed!

Great get-away
Beautiful home with various patios - close to the beach - a delight to stay in. The home has amble towels, pillows,, sheets, beach toys and surfboards. We loved the well stocked kitchen and the updated bathroom and sinks. The agent is quick to respond to all questions. Fabulous.

Beautiful vacation home
This was our 2nd year staying at this house. It’s the perfect get away for our group of 12 moms. Comfortable beds, plenty of supplies and gorgeous view. We did have a plumbing issue this time but the owners were very responsive and got someone out quickly.

The house was amazing. Very clean and spacious. We really didn't have to bring any outdoor items or beach towels. They supplied everything. I don't think there was anything missing that you would have needed to go to the beach. The kitchen had plenty of appliances, and pots pans etc. We definitely had a wonderful time and would HIGHLY recommend this house to anyone. Thank you for a wonderful time!

Quiet and peaceful place
My friends and I had a wonderful stay at this cozy, wooden beach house just steps away from the glorious Pajaro Dunes beach. The parking is right out front, just up a small hill from the tennis courts. Two decks and a relaxing hot tub. Our only complaint is the master bedroom and other bedroom share ONE sink and one shower/toilet. THAT was a drag but didn't ruin our stay. Hope to stay there again in the future.

Great place
We loved the house and location as well as the amenities although the owner called a few hours after we arrived home saying that our insurance would be claimed against stating that a tv had been taken off of the wall and badly damaged. My daughter in law and I walked the entire house making sure everything was in order and lastly the room (near the entrance) that the tv was supposedly damaged and turned that tv off and made sure the room was also in order before walking out the door as the cleaners came in. Definitely questionable.

Our family getaway at this home for the 4th of July was exactly what we needed. From the cool weather and beautiful beach, to the relaxing home and warm hot tub. Everyone in our family had a great time. Any questions we had were quickly answered by the property managers and the checkin/checkout process was smooth and easy. We definitely would return for another stay in this home!

Great house, great location. For the price paid for a Monday and Tuesday night it could have been better. Outside sitting area where spa and bbq where at was dirty with leaves and debris. We were really looking forward to the spa, but in the end it would not stay on to heat up the water. Breaker was not tripping. It would turn on for a few minutes, then shut itself off.

Our Beach house stay
My family and I spent a couple of nights at the beach house. It was fantastic! We really enjoyed the close and private access to the beautiful beach! We saw otters and seals playing in the waves. I was up early one of the mornings and collected sand dollars on the beach, saw a seal on the beach, lots on birds. The views from the kitchen and balcony cannot be beat. The house was clean, beds were super comfortable, all things worked well and were easy to use. I had one question and the manager responded right away and was very kind and easy to deal with. I would highly recommend taking a peaceful vacation here.
