SPECTACULAR OCEAN-FRONT HOME IN MONTEREY BAY


California is known for some of the most beautiful beaches in the world and Pajaro Dunes is no exception. The resort itself is nestled within a unique coastal environment and sanctuary. Just like us, you will be captivated by the daily views of birds, dolphins, whales, sea otters and other wildlife and your breath taken away by the incredibly beautiful evening sunsets.

The house which was originally built by Senator Diane Feinstein is well known in the community. It was recently remodeled and boasts high ceilings, floor to ceiling windows with lots of light and an open floor plan. Unique to the resort, the house has spacious front deck looks to the ocean with an additional private courtyard to the back of the house that has a dining and lounging area. From the cul-de-sac, the house has a private driveway with parking for up to 3 cars. A staircase directly across from the house provides direct access to the beach.

The resort is a gated community located centrally, 20 miles from the quaint Capitola Village by the Sea, Santa Cruz and 25 miles north of Monterey/Carmel. Enjoy the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, amazing restaurants, Santa Cruz Mountain Redwoods, Monterey Bay whale watching and the Aquarium, central coast wineries and world famous golf

The house is in a great location between Santa Cruz and Monterey with exceptional ocean views. Great communication with everything that the house has to offer. We got to check in a little bit early, thank you Carl. Other than the couch is a bit uncomfortable, everything the house has is perfect along with an extra fridge in the garage for our large group. We did bring air mattresses to accommodate the extra sleeping arrangements. Thank you again!

Relaxing Getaway
My entire family had such an amazing stay. The property is exactly as described and pictures do not do the view justice. There is not direct beach access from the back of the property. However, that is not an issue as the entire neighborhood is beautiful and it is just a short 3 minute walk to the sand/beach. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets from the comfort of the living room and amazing breakfast views from the dining room table. Kitchen also had everything we needed for cooking, and even baking, during our stay. Beautiful home and location. And would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Beach House
Spent the weekend to celebrate our kids birthday and we could not have asked for a better location! Teenagers were busy from all day, Hanging at the beach, playing tennis, basketball, volleyball, all right on site! Then at night so much space in the house, they played games until the wee hours of the morning without my Husband and I even being bothered because the house is so BIG! Carl was an incredible host, communicated beautifully for check in and out. Couple questions while we were there and he responded immediately! We will absolutely be Back😊

Amazing view and comfy beds!
Such a beautiful home. The views from the patio are stunning. Sitting out in the chairs and watching the waves was our family's favorite past time. The beds are amazingly comfy. The property management responded to our inquiries quickly and were very friendly. The inner courtyard was serene and a great place to relax.

Great location and roomy house. Nice parking area and easy access to home. Could use more lighting, a little too dark. Common area furniture needs an update. Very good host communication. Space is as described. Very enjoyable and comfortable family space.

Perfect long weekend
My title comes with a small bias as the time spent at House 48 was my wedding weekend. So, me, my (now) husband, and 6 of our friends stayed at this property for 4 days/3 nights. This house is HUGE with the most epic view through the full wall windows along the back of the house. There was plenty of space for us all - never feeling like you were on top of each other and many spaces to find some seclusion, if needed. The house was clean and well equipped. One small disappointment was that the house does not have direct access to the beach - right outside the back is a large wall of rocks that are dangerous to climb, obviously, so you instead have to utilize the stairs available a short (3-4 minute) walk down the road. Communication with the property manager was pleasant and easy. We never had any issues. Of note, we couldn't find any trash or recycling bins near the house so we had to haul any & all garbage to the center near the front gate. No big deal with a truck. Thanks for the stay! We'd love to come again in the future!

Absolutely perfect seaside retreat
Our family stayed here to celebrate my mother-in-law's 80th birthday. There were 6 of us, including 1 person with a walker, and an 11-year-old. The home was absolutely perfect for all of us. The setting and view is positively otherworldly. A panoramic view of the ocean greets you as you walk in, and you can hear the waves crashing from all of the 4 bedrooms. The kitchen had everything we needed, as we cooked heavily and ate all our meals in the home. The kitchen was stocked with appliances, cooking utensils, serving bowls, and almost every conceivable type of drinking glass and dish imaginable. The pantry had lots of spices, along with sugar and cooking spray. The home was very clean, and furnished with all kinds of extras to really enhance your comfort: Cushions for all the outdoor loungers, blankets for sitting outside, an enormous working fireplace, TVs, a game cabinet, magazines, and helpful notes throughout the house. We played ping pong and foosball in the garage with out kiddo every day. There was also every manner of beach gear imaginable - chairs, beach toys, a wagon to carry it all across the sand, wet suits, boogie boards, I think I even saw surf boards. They really did think of everything. Carl, the owner, was extremely friendly and helpful, and provided very good tips and guidelines prior to check-in. He also checked in on us via text, even though he was out of the country, and was available via text throughout our stay. We had the good fortune to see a pod of dolphins swimming in front of the house, and a playful sea otter right off the beach. Accessing the beach was very easy and convenient via the stairway at the end of the driveway. We are already planning our next stay here. It is absolutely perfect — peaceful, beautiful, indulgent, relaxing. Everything a seaside getaway should be. This special place has cast its spell on us.

Great family stay
We had a great time! The house had a perfect view of sunsets and birds and beach. The kitchen was well stocked to cook every meal and it was great to have a dishwasher. Kids enjoyed foozeball and ping pong in the garage. Being a belt to park in drive way made loading and unloading easy. It wasn’t warm enough for swimming but wr enjoyed digging in the sand for crabs and clams.

We could not have asked for a better location of the home. Everyone in the family had a great time and are raving about the home. Sunset, moon rise and set over the ocean was ideal from the home. Carl responded promptly to all our questions and offered extended checkout without any ask. Thanks so much and we could enjoy it for that much longer. Thanks again Carl

Beautiful house on the beach!
This was, hands down, one of the most beautiful places we have ever rented. The house is a bit outdated, as are most of the houses in this complex. But it was far made up for in convenience to the beach, stocked items in the kitchen, LOADS of kids toys in the garage (seriously, no need to bring anything), and the wonderful communication from Carl. Even though the weather was not wonderful (this was the first October in 8 years we had seen rain) we still had so much fun at the beach and in the house. The 6 kids we were with had plenty of space to run around when it was raining outside. We will definitely be back!!

Great location!
The house is located right on the beach, with great views. The house is a little rundown and need better housekeeping. We found ants, spider webs, and dust and dirt around the house, we didn't feel the house was cleaned. We had 2 infants and did not feel it was clean enough for them to crawl around. Hope they keep up the maintenance on this house because we will definitely be back. The owner was friendly, and great at communication and gave us thorough instructions
