About this apartment rental
Looking for a relaxing getaway? Our beautiful oceanfront condominium at Pajaro Dunes might be just the spot! Nestled on the top floor of the Shorebirds complex in building D, this cozy condo offers stunning, panoramic views of the Monterey Bay. With the waves crashing just outside your door, it’s the perfect place to wake up to breathtaking sunrises over Monterey. Whether you’re unwinding on the private patio or enjoying a peaceful night in, the natural beauty surrounding this home makes it hard to leave.
Inside, the condo is freshly updated with brand-new carpeting, a remodeled kitchen, and a top-of-the-line induction stove. The oceanfront Master Bedroom En-suite features a comfy King bed, while the second bedroom offers a Queen + Twin setup, perfect for families or a couple with kids. We tried to think of everything to ensure you have a comfortable stay, with fully equipped kitchen essentials, beautifully decorated interiors, and a serene, welcoming atmosphere.
But it's not just about the condo—Pajaro Dunes itself is a true gem. This gated, quiet beach community sits between Santa Cruz and Monterey along the stunning California coastline. Our resort spans across 550 homes and vacation rentals, and it's loaded with activities for all ages. There are tennis, pickleball, basketball, and volleyball courts on-site, as well as biking and walking paths to explore the area. And, of course, the highlight is the pristine, uncrowded beach stretching for miles, offering quiet, untouched beauty with panoramic views stretching from Pebble Beach to Santa Cruz.
Pajaro Dunes is a perfect blend of relaxation and fun, with something for everyone. Enjoy a round of pickleball or tennis, explore the beach and find sand dollars, or simply lounge and watch the seals, sea otters, and pelicans. It’s an ideal spot for both family vacations and couples’ retreats. Come experience the magic of Pajaro Dunes—where nature, comfort, and beauty all come together in one incredible place.

When you walk through the doors and see the expansive view, you will be glad you have this gem. We were just 2 but loved the second bedroom to keep our luggage, the 2 bathrooms were a luxury and although it was cool we love sitting on the deck to watch the sun set every night. It felt like we had the property to ourselves. We only used the grill once, but anew York City apartment dwellers, loved the option. The fireplace with the duraflame logs was something we loved every evening. The management of the resort will get back to you immediately on any issue, and ensure you are happy. This is a wonderful vacation rental in a well-run resort in an exceptionally beautiful spot. Highly recommend.

Great!

Here’s the reasons why I gave a three star rating.Pro1. The kitchen was wonderfully equipped with anything you might need. Cons1. One of the two blinds on the sliding door in the master bedroom did not work. With the early morning sun coming through, it was hard to sleep in. 2. In the living room the sliding door that goes out onto the outdoor deck would not open, even the maintenance guy could not open it. We had to go through the master bedroom sliding door if we wanted to sit on the deck. 3. It would have been very helpful to have written instructions on how to use the TV remote l similar to the written instructions on how to use the automatic blinds, those were very helpful! 4. In the master bathroom, there was a container of hand soap on the counter. In the second bathroom there was no container of hand soap, only one tiny bar of soap was left in the tub area. A container of hand soap would have been more appreciated.
