Beach House Located On the Beautiful Monterey Bay

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 Yes, the place is outdated, but it is exactly the kind of vacation rental that your grandparents would’ve gone to (and probably do).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.”

Great view on the beach.

Great location on a secluded beach. The weather is fantastic.

It is advertised that there is WiFi but there is no internet. When you get the final check in info it says “NO INTERNET”. And that is correct. My other problem with the home is the musty odor when you open the cupboards. There are lots of glasses, plates,etc. It has never been cleaned out. Location Fabulous. Club house and facilities are great.

We've stayed in this condo in years past.

We had a great time. Glad to get out of the valley heat for a week. House was very clean. We appreciated that. Thank you!!!

Absolutely lovely spot amongst the dunes and farmland. Very little light pollution made for excellent star gazing, and the beach was very close. Quiet and wonderful. Not much cell connectivity, but that made for a great escape.

This was our second stay. We love the boardwalk and flora & fauna! Very clean pool & hot tub which were enjoyed by all. We love the retro decor, eclectic artwork and super comfy beds!

Private, practically, beach with beautiful sunsets. Everything a kitchen should have for cooking family dinners, plus a big dining room table to spread out. Super comfy beds, soft linens, plenty of towels, a cupboard full of games & puzzles. Honestly, just bring your groceries and settle in.
