NorCal coastal retreat

We had a beautiful vacation in the center of the Monterey Bay Coast. Pajaro Dunes is tranquil and gorgeous, especially if you love shorebirds. This condo was extremely well equipped, so we cooked all our meals at home except for some day trips to Monterey and Santa Cruz. Lovely walks at sunset. We will definitely be back.

Five days of bliss

This was our second stay at Pajaro Dunes and won’t be our last. We could not have asked for better accommodations from this property or hosts. The views were fabulous, the bed more comfortable than home, and the whole experience so peaceful. I didn’t want to leave!
