No need to comment on the location - if you know about Monterey Dunes, you know all you need to know. If you don't, you need to stay here and find out!As for the home, the host was super responsive. House had everything we needed for a week with the family. Very clean. Not fancy, but comfortable - we would definitely stay here again.

This is one of the rare condos in the Colony that has a true second floor with an incredible view of the ocean. The walk from the condo to the beach is the shortest across the Colony, and the dunes are low enough that you can even see the ocean from the bottom level master bedroom. No internet. No problem. No broadcast or cable TV. No problem. Download your favorite movies onto a tablet and enjoy the night air. Yes, it smells musty when you first walk in, but it’s obvious the owners are trying to mitigate that with baking soda air purifiers everywhere. Extra stars for NOT using those stinky plug-ins that give people migraines! I got used to the smell after a day. Yes, the place is outdated, but it is exactly the kind of vacation rental that your grandparents would’ve gone to (and probably do). The nesting chair and recliner that sit right in front of the living room window make it the coziest setting I’ve ever experienced at a Colony condo. My husband literally said, “I think I’m the most relaxed I’ve ever been in my entire life.”

This is an ideal location if you enjoy the beach and beach combing. We didn't find any strange or rare shells but there were lots of sand dollars and mollusks. The bird watching was interesting, with an introduction to the habits of the snowy plover, brown pelican, and the ever present gulls. The hike to the "shipwreck" was fun although the "shipwreck" was not very romantic--just a metal skeleton of a 20th century vessel.
