    Excellent facility. Very much appreciated how clean well stocked (e.g., laundry detergent) and user friendly the facility was. Appreciated the children's toys the owner had made available for my grandchildren staying with us. My only, very minor, complaint was the bathroom design with no door in the master bedroom. Aside from that, everything was outstanding and we very much enjoyed our stay,

    We brought our family to stay during the holiday break and had an amazing time! The house has everything you could need, is very clean and is a great space for a family to spend time together but also stay out of each other's hair. The beach is gorgeous and literally steps away. It is a relatively unpopulated beach so no crowds to worry about. An unexpected highlight included the games and puzzles available at the house. My teenagers spent most of their time puzzling and taking walks on the beach - so nice to see them off their phones! One more highlight, the beds were SUPER comfortable. Highly recommend for a family vacation or friend's weekend away.

    Fantastic communication from the host, great amenities, beautiful and well-maintained unit. One of the very best at Pajaro - and we’ve stayed there literally for decades.Will stay here again. Thank you, Whitney!

    We enjoyed our stay! The primary bedroom is spacious with glimpses of the ocean (same view from family room). Kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans of all sizes and baking and cooking essentials. A one minute stroll to a sandy, uncrowded beach (we even found a fully intact sand dollar!). Also, it's accessible to those who can walk but have limited mobility: short walk from parking lot to the front door (slight incline), single-level unit, short walk to the beach via a boardwalk to your choice of wooden steps or a sloped sandy path. Located right between Monterey and Santa Cruz, and pretty close to Elkhorn Slough.

    Spent few days with my family in the beach condo. Everything was exactly as per the description, clean, spacious and very well located for any sightseeing in the area followed by a relaxing evening at the beach!

    We stay at the Ryan’s property frequently. The property is immaculate, great size, incredibly comfortable and is mere steps from the beach. They are great hosts and truly nice people. My kids, my wife and myself love the property. Thanks as always.

    We have been staying at Pajaro going on 35 years and this condo has got to be in our Top 5 of all the places we have stayed. So many comfortable amenities - the beds, the couch. Kids loved the huge TV and we so enjoyed our time at the beach, as always. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home!

    The property is very well appointed. It has everything you could want for a nice family vacation. Proximity to the beach is great. Multiple patios allow for quiet outside time, together or alone. Communication with host was timely and cordial.
