My elderly parents loved the place. Easy access. The place was clean and so well kept. Lovely spot to see the ocean from a distance, see so many species of birds! They just loved sitting on the balcony. The host was polite, professional, and responded quickly. Thank you so much for the wine

Pajaro Dunes is such a gem as you are in a secluded area of the coast because of all the surrounding farmland. Santa Cruz is just to the North & Monterey to the South! So much to see & do! We went in August & it was extremely quiet & peaceful.The unit is perfect in every way. The view of the Pajaro River, dunes, beach & birds is beautiful from inside & especially on the patio. It is on the second level but instead of steps there’s a long ramp. A large cart is provided to bring your supplies up. Only a few steps to get into the unit, so perfect for seniors. The weather was overcast part of the time but it is always nice to cool off when it’s over 100 degrees in the Sacramento Valley. I enjoyed a refreshing dip in the ocean each day & will bring my boogie board next visit.
