About this property

Incredible Oceanfront Luxury ~ VIEWS ~ Billiards/Pong * new grocery delivery!

There is NO other rental home like this at Pajaro Dunes -- it is very large, oceanfront, generously equipped and offers wide open views from Monterey to Santa Cruz. Live the "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" on your vacation and share with your nearest and dearest.

"BEST OF DUNES" manages ONLY Pajaro Dunes homes, 100% through a Pajaro Dunes homeowner / rental professional who is available 24/7 for your custom needs. We provide 5-star service 24/7, and the best homes for rent at Pajaro Dunes.

Highlights: beachfront LUXE with 180 degree views; several GOLF options; TWO amazing chef's kitchens fully stocked; play inside and out with games/toys/pool table/pingpong/pickleball/
tennis/basketball/volleyball/surfing/more!

House 59 is a 4500+ SqFt, double-wide single family home with 75 feet of beach frontage and a 50 foot long balcony - unusually large for a front row home at Pajaro Dunes! This home will exceed your expectations in ways you never thought possible at Pajaro Dunes. Due to house height restrictions you simply will not find another home of this size and capacity in the oceanfront row of homes -- secure your spot now so you don't have to break up your family into multiple properties!

The layout of this home offers the ultimate convenience for multiple families or multiple generations who want to stay in one home together rather than rent multiple properties. Two full primary bedroom suites offer mom and dad, and grandma and grandpa, all the luxury and privacy you deserve. Enjoy ALL your time together in quality accommodations for a combined cost that is less than the price of two rental homes!

NOTE: NEW ELECTRIC FIREPLACE WITH REMOTE CONTROL- no wood

This home has five separate bedrooms (two with private bathrooms), and many, many conversation spaces. A family/media room downstairs can be used as a sixth "open" sleep area with fold down couches (adding two more full sized beds = 7 total beds comprised of 4 king, 2 full size couches, and 1 queen bed.

The top floor encompasses TWO full living rooms with many cozy gathering areas, conversation seating areas, and multiple dining tables. For entertainment, you'll find...

The highlight of the top floor is the oceanfront, west-facing 50 foot balcony with outdoor dining seating for your entire group of up to 12 adults + 2 kids. Enjoy the incredible sunsets with a gourmet dinner or a glass of wine from two chaise lounges. Look for humpback whale spouts, dolphins, seals, and coastal birds from this incredible vantagepoint. The panoramic view spans from the Monterey Peninsula in the south, all the way to Santa Cruz to the north.

Also upstairs are TWO newly-renovated full kitchens with...
• BRAND NEW full size refrigerators, stoves/ovens, dishwashers and microwaves

Absolutely Wonderful!

This house is the perfect size for a large family! Everyone was comfortable in their own, quiet, comfortable bedrooms. The multiple sitting areas assured everyone had a place to enjoy the wonderful views! We had the best time doing a family craft, while watching old home movies in the massive great room...and did I mention the amazing ocean view! The host was great with communication. Can't wait to go back again! mconversation

beautiful location

The location right on the beach was magnificent. The house was very clean and comfortable. There was plenty of room for the 10 of us. The only negative is not having parking right at the house We had to use a cart with our belongings along a path, then we had to carry everything up the stairs to the house. Otherwise, we had a great time.

Beautiful Beachfront Home.

Beautiful beach property with a great ocean view. My family and I enjoyed our stay very much. Plenty of room for all 14 of us and a short walk to the beach. There was an issue with our 4:00 check in and didn’t get in until around 4:30. The check out cleaning process is a bit much but my family got everything done and out on time. With that said we would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful family vacation retreat.

The host was very communicative and easy to reach at any time. The wide open main floor was a terrific place for all to both be together and to participate in different activities at the same time. The beach access is fantastic! The outdoor shower/hoses enabled us to keep the outdoor sand outdoors. We swam, surfed, and boogie boarded near dolphins, sea otters, and even a couple of whales. The parking was convenient and the small carts useful for moving belongings from car to house. The kitchens are well-stocked with every tool and appliance needed. It was vey helpful to have 2 dishwashers with our large group.

This house has a wonderful layout for families, or groups of families as we had. The location on the beach is unbeatable. There are multiple places inside and out to sit and chat or watch the birds on the sand and dolphins in the ocean. We enjoyed the game table for board games and puzzles. The kitchen(s) are stocked with everything you need for meal prep and serving. The bedrooms and baths are well laid out and updated. Our group of six adults and two children had a fabulous time and hope to return again.
