Labor Day Weekend Getaway

We had a fantastic family weekend at this house. It worked great for our family, was clean, well appointed, and had everything we needed. The hot tub was an added bonus and very well maintained. We enjoyed the pool table and the covered deck immensely.

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.

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!

Our family (with adult children) had a wonderful week relaxing while enjoying the spectacular semi-oceanfront views at this spacious home in Pajaro Dunes. The beds were comfortable, the linens and towels were plentiful, the kitchen was well-stocked (a large pasta pot would be a welcome addition), the hot tub suitably hot on a chilly day, and the living spaces were conducive to hours of game-playing and conversation. The property management company was very responsive to our every need.We enjoyed a festive New Year's Eve with additional family and toasted 2026 off the deck overlooking the Pacific. What could be better?

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.

Peaceful and welcoming!

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 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.
