At The Beach! Insanely Great Beach House, Ocean Views, Relaxation & Pickleball

House 67 makes its debut - this large home has a hot and cold water outdoor shower to rinse off the sand and generously sleeps 11 guests. Ideal location to visit Santa Cruz County and Monterey County. Pajaro Dunes Resort is a private gated community located on miles of sandy beach.

Premier trifecta location with spectacular ocean views, baby steps to the coveted beach access AND the ease to unload your car and walk directly up to the front door.

Gorgeous natural light floods the entire upper floor. Vaulted ceilings throughout the upstairs and in the downstairs master bedroom. Plenty of room to spread out for some downtime in the well proportioned bedrooms, nap, read or daydream on the chaise lounges in the irresistible sun room. Rejuvenate or catch up on some work in the serenity of the semi-private ocean view retreat space above the master bedroom.

Gather in the living room with views from Santa Cruz to Moss Landing to Monterey. Plenty of room to enjoy game night, build a puzzle with the little ones, grab a book from the floor to ceiling bookcase, enjoy the fireplace, or catch up on your binge watching on the 60 inch TV.

Relaxing Beach Getaway

This house was perfect for our family of eleven. All the furniture was very comfy for hanging out. The kitchen was extremely well equipped with everything you could possibly need. We also enjoyed the gas bbq a couple times during the week. The views were breathtaking. It was a short walk to the beach which was so nice when the kids got tired it was easy to come back to the house for snacks and a rest then head back to the beach. The beds were so comfy and with the sounds of the ocean made for a great nights sleep. Very clean. The whole family is looking forward to coming back.

Would love to stay here again!

Perhaps I shouldn't be so enthusiastic about this house because I want to keep it available for future bookings for us!!! We (6 adults and one 2.5 yr old) just loved it. Well-appointed, comfortable, beach access, roomy. It is just what you want a beach house to be.

Weekend getaway

Our group of friends is committed to this weekend every year at Pajaro. We’ve used dozens of houses and this one is the best. Owners are thoughtful and friendly. Every detail of the house shows their love and considerations. It’s such a breath of fresh air to interact with people who care to be human and not just in it for the money. We will definitely be booking again.

Love this place

This is our second year in a row staying at this beautiful house. The location is amazing right on the beach but also plenty to see and do in nearby towns. House is clean and well stocked with everything we need from the pack and play to plenty of beach toys and towels. Check out is easy and communication with the host was great. Would definitely stay again.

Better than the Pictures - Great House on the Beach!

This property is a true gem. It is obvious that the owners have taken great care to have the place well stocked with things visitors may need including kitchen essentials and PLENTY of towels for trips to the beach. The beach is very easily accessible. Great communication with the owner throughout our experience. Highly recommend this spot.

Fantastic place to stay

This house is lovely, with a wonderful design, great views, and all the comforts one could need. The kitchen is very well-equipped, both with dishes and cookware and with spices. Even if it is gray or rainy, this is a great place to hang out, with lots of comfortable chairs for reading and relaxing. If you’ve never been to Pajaro you should know that the beach goes on for miles, so boundless opportunities for walking and watching birds. We even saw an otter. Highly recommend.

Life’s a beach!

Our family stayed for several days while we explored Hearst Castle and Pebble Beach. After spending too much time in the car (traffic) traveling to those places it was so nice to come back to the house! The house was perfect for family dinners and spreading out to decompress! But the best part of our trip was exploring the beach and watching the waves crashing! We all enjoyed morning and night walks along the shore! Thank you Denise!

Fantastic Beach House

The owner is responsive and thoughtful, making it a seamless experience from reservation to checkout. From kitchenware to everything you need to have fun at the beach, it is one of the most well-equipped vacation houses we've stayed in. The inground trash bin is fairly small so check if it's full during check-in.

We booked this house with my sister and her family to celebrate my Dad’s 70th. We had 10 guests including kids and everyone was very comfortable. The beds, linens and pillows were all very cozy. The house was stocked with everything you could imagine and access to the beach was so quick. We loved all the beach and sunset views from the kitchen, living and seating areas.

The house was beautiful as was our stay. Short drive to Monterey. The house was so clean and well kept. We took advantage of the fire pit on the beach at night. Watched whales and a school of dolphins in the morning. It was such a comfortable house and Denise was so responsive to our questions.

We had a great weekend away! We had 3 couples and one of our teens for two nights at this awesome property. There was plenty of space for everyone in this very nice, very clean modern space around a very cool '70s style kitchen! The kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed to cook for the entire weekend. The living room was comfortable and spacious, the fireplace was great, the bedrooms were very comfortable, and the owner was very nice and proactive and responsive. Couldn't ask for better :-)

Beautiful property, great memories

We booked this trip to spend time with my step father who was given 6 months to live - terminal cancer. We wanted to go somewhere not to far for the whole family before he got too sick to travel. We spent our time enjoying walks on the beach and took advantage of the fire pit on the beach. We even got to see the bioluminescence in the water at night which was a great treat! We grew up going to PD a couple of times a year with my family, so we explored old spots and got one last trip with everyone together.
