Jeff and Pam are great hosts. Their beach house is a great place for families to gather and their kitchen is the best stocked of any we have experienced. We hope to return in future years.
Stop your search and book this house! When I say it has everything you are looking for, I mean everything - the owners did not cut any corners in making this home a perfect beach getaway. From a fully loaded kitchen (every gadget, cutlery, spice you could imagine), to 6 plush robes hanging in the closets, this house is exactly what you want when looking for a luxury beach getaway. We didn't have kids, but it is absolutely kid friendly if you do, with beach toys/wagon, and game closet. The beds are large and comfortable and bedrooms have blackout curtains. The fireplace was spectacular and kept the house warm and cozy. Lastly, it was impeccably clean and stocked with extra supplies. If you want to feel spoiled and pampered all while having secluded, almost private, access to the spectacular beach, this is the house for you.We are so grateful to have spent time here and make incredible family memories.
This property was beautiful and a perfect getaway for our family! Jeff and Pam were great to work with and provided everything we needed and them some! The view and sunsets were incredible - 5 star all around!
Such a wonderful location! The amenities and property were beautiful, we appreciated the quiet getaway just hop skip and jump away from Monterey. The kids enjoyed the beach, we spotted some crabs, whales, pelicans, cormorants, snowy plovers, gulls, whimbrel and so many more species of birds.
The property was perfect for my family. It had everything we needed. The views of the water were amazing and the nearly empty beach was even better. Thanks so much for the hospitality, Jeff & Pam.
Location and privacy was so important to our group and this did not disappoint. Great kitchen space and a back door straight to the beach. Amazing scenery and the best weather we could ask for. Super clean, well stocked and had everything we needed for our stay.
Thanks so much. We’ll definitely be back
Gorgeous, well-stocked and super-comfortable home in a gated community! Fantastic views and stunning sunsets! Easy beach access via the boardwalk, just over a small dune. The owners made us feel so welcome, so nice and helpful! We look forward to visiting again!
Our family had a wonderful time at Jeff & Pam's beautiful place!! The ocean view was incredible and we loved hearing the sound of the waves. The recommendations from Jeff & Pam were very helpful & our kids loved the snacks that were left for guests. The short walk to the beach was a big highlight. This was one of our favorite places we have stayed at & we hope to visit again soon!
We can’t wait to come back! The view was spectacular and the house was perfect. It had everything we could need to enjoy a week at the beach. The owners thought of everything. Being able to walk right to the beach was incredible. We can’t wait to visit again!
We loved our stay here! The home was so inviting with all the touches of comfort, and it was clean and updated all around. The views from the living room and kitchen were unforgettable. The perfect escape. We certainly hope to be back. Thank you!
We loved our stay at Jeff and Pam's home in the Monterey Dunes Colony! The view was beautiful and the beach was just steps away. The large kitchen was fully stocked with spices, oils, coffee, appliances (blender, cuisinart, toaster, and slow cooker for example) and all the dishes and utensils one could possibly need. We enjoyed the closet with puzzles and games which also housed movies and beach toys and equipment for the various courts at the nearby clubhouse. We were able to kayak at Elkhorn Slough, visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Carmel and Point Lobos and even volunteer for a day at Esalen from this perfect peaceful base.
The house was clean, tidy, and PACKED with goodies. Every supply was more than abundant and Jeff was Pam was always just a text message away. We loved our stay, and the house and definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to spend time at this location. Thank you again for everything, guys. love - The Sarkars.
We were able to totally be at rest and allow the immersion in the soundscape of the ocean to hold us and nourish us. Jeff and Pam's place was most conducive for this and met our expectations. I'd return here in the future.
Our family absolutely loved our stay here. We stay in a lot of rentals and this one really stood out for the level of attention payed to making sure you had everything you needed. Our boys 11 and 14 were super excited about the container of snacks, upon entry they said right away that we needed to leave a 5 star review. But most we loved the view, the sunsets, beach, and the relaxing atmosphere. It was extremely clean and well kept. All the beds were very comfortable with nice linens. Kitchen was beautiful with everything we needed from spices to actually sharp knives. Visited both Monterey and Pinnacles NP. It was a great stay!!
Jeff and Pam have done an amazing job making this place feel warm and welcoming as well as beautiful. They stock it generously with everything a good cook might want as well as with games and plenty of in-home entertainment options. They were responsive in real time, made the checkin process easy and left good, clear instructions for the most important things we needed to know. A wonderful contrast to another unit we stayed in previously managed by Monterey Dunes Company, which was poorly stocked with insufficient cutlery and just about everything else as well as and never got properly repaired with responses to requests often taking days.
Our staff enjoyed our stay during Monterey car week. The house was beautiful and well decorated. Beautiful sunsets. It was only 30 mins from pebble beach
