Please take a look at all of our photos!
Our spotless unit faces the sunset; relax by the big picture window and enjoy the view...it's one of the best at Pajaro Dunes Resort.
Located along Sunset State Beach, Pajaro Dunes is close to everything in the Monterey Bay: it's about 15 minutes to Santa Cruz and 30 minutes to Monterey, Pebble Beach, and Carmel. There are dozens of sights to see and things to do...When you feel like feeling sand under your feet, simply walk down a couple flights of stairs past the dunes and you are right on the beach! It is so easy to enjoy the sand and be able to rinse off afterwards at the building's outside shower and rinse off area. Two Beach chairs, beach towels, umbrella, and sand toys are provided for your use. Pickleball courts are here along with tennis courts. Have a bonfire in the fire-pits that are on the beach (fire pits only available during summer months- bring your own required metal bowl for off season).
Come sit by the picture windows and just enjoy the view!
Indulge in the coastal lifestyle and make this bayside condo home on your next getaway to Pajaro Dunes on Monterey Bay!
We are a disabled friendly condo.Wheelchairs and walkers: our condo is accessible by ramp from the parking lot. There is a grab bar and low entry into the master shower.
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now'!

Perfect, Quiet Getaway

We loved this property! It’s conveniently located between Monterrey and Santa Cruz. We loved the quiet beach location. We enjoyed the sunsets and relaxing to the sound of the crashing waves. The master bedroom and living room both have great views of the ocean. It’s a short walk down to the water and we enjoyed the sparsely populated beach. Restaurants and shopping are a short 10-15 minute drive away. We will definitely be back next time we’re in the area.

Amazing

My husband and I stayed at this beautiful condo for a week and our visit was wonderful. The view is spectacular, with the ocean right on your doorstep. It is a peaceful, relaxing environment. Our host Laura was great, she was always available to answer any questions and to insure that your visit was first rate. The condo is beautifully decorated, spacious and stocked with everything you need. We have already booked for next year and can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Laura Abatangle Owens

Host profile image
This is a family owned condo. We are three siblings (twins and our brother) that have shared ownership since 1990. It was bought by our parents and passed down to us. We are happy to share our Pajaro Dunes home with you!

Why they chose this property

Pajaro Dunes Resort is a hidden gem. It is a beautiful spot to enjoy the California coast without all the crowds. You can also get to Santa Cruz or Monterey area very quickly. We like to say it is CENTRALLY ISOLATED!

What makes this property unique

We love the way you can sit and look out the picture window and see the Monterey Bay!
Take the stairs to the beach and Walk a few steps and you are on the sand...
Sleep to the sounds of the waves crashing on the beach.
We just upgraded with new flooring, doors and bathrooms and the kitchen will be done by May 2023!
