    This is the 4th year staying here with the family. The house is always clean, the Kitchen well stocked with just about anything needed for preparing meals. The view of the ocean is spectacular.

    Location is unbelievable. Highlights are the views from the deck and the hot tub. Kitchen and linens / towels well stocked. Excellent communication with owners. House layout is very odd, with essentially only two bedrooms accessible by exterior stairs. we made it work for our family of five, but it costs a lot of money to have a guest sleeping in a living room pullout couch.

    Oh yes the kitchen was more than supplied with everything you could ever need. Perfect view. Was not crazy about going outside to go to bedrooms but I made the stairs. I can’t call the downstairs couch a real bedroom but it would work for a bed for someone. All in all it was great and we had a wonderful memorable time. Thank you.

    We had a great time in the rental! It was perfect because my husband and I could stay in the guest house with our kids while his elderly family got the main house. Beautiful view and they had sand buckets for the kids to use as well! Can’t wait for next year!

    The house is lovely, and was perfect for our family, but the location was what really made this house perfect. Because the house is practically on the beach, my husband who has difficulty walking was able to enjoy being at the beach without actually walking on the sand.

    Huge home right on the beach. Fully stocked kitchen, tons of beach and bath towels, plenty of living, family, and dining seating. Great balcony with plenty of comfortable seating and the hot tub. Some minor inconveniences: hot tub water was really green when we checked in Monday afternoon so we didn’t get to use it that day, but a quick response back from the owner let us know that maintenance is every Tuesday and Friday morning and the hot tub guy came Tuesday 10am. He said it looked like it was used a lot since Friday but he would have it cleaned up and ready by Tuesday afternoon. I only counted 3 bedrooms, but no issue for my group of 6. Access to the stairs to the bedrooms are outside with no bedrooms on the lower level, but no issues for us. Overall a great place to stay. Driveway parking was also a big plus.

    We had an amazing stay at a great property! The house is extremely well equipped and very comfortable for large groups. The only downside is that it’s an unusual design which requires one to go outside and up stairs to get to any of the befrooms. In the summer, no big deal, and it didn’t bother us.

    We were all delighted with this property, my children and grandchildren gathered for my 70th birthday, and it couldn’t have been more special. It was always a dream of mine to be at a beach house like this, and I was not disappointed!

The area is not crowded at this time of year ( May) and a great time was had by all. We made great memories and hope to be back one day!

    You will not find a better view with a hot tub facing the beach. It was fabulous. Kitchen was very well equipped with everything you need. The main floor was recently updated with new carpet and furniture. Beautiful and comfortable. It was unclear from the listing that you could not access any bedrooms from inside the home. It was strange to have to go outside and upstairs to access bedrooms that were in the main house. The 3 bedroom was in a separate building not attached to the house. Bedrooms could use updating. Bedroom patio door were being replaced, so patio door was not able to be open from one bedroom. The incredible view made up for these other small inconveniences.

    We had a great stay! We had 3 families so each got their own space when needed, but had the communal space (deck, living room, courtyard) to hang out in all the time. The hot tub was particularly nice. Only thing we didn’t realize was that there’s no direct beach access from the house. It’s very close, and just a short walk, but with a group of young kids we weren’t able to let them just run out onto the beach. Very happy with our stay overall

    From the moment we walked in through the outside door, we were so excited to be at this house. The entire house is so unique. We loved how the outdoor entrances made it seem like we had our own private areas, yet the sliding doors allowed us to be open to the family below. The outside deck was AMAZING! So many places to sit and enjoy the views. The kitchen had everything you could ever need to create a beautiful setting at the large dining table. We loved the fun and fancy glassware, along with the ice machine in the bar area. The extra house off the main house was a perfect spot for the families who needed a separate space with extra beds and a private bathroom. The path to the beach was right next to the home and parking was ideal. We have stayed in many homes at Pajaro where we had to walk a good distance in order to get to the main property. This location allowed us to park in the driveway and walk right in. I can't express enough how beautiful the views are in this property. The only downfall is if you are traveling with someone who may struggle with stairs. We didn't realize the bottom queen bed and bathroom was a pull out bed from the couch and not an additional bedroom. Overall, this was one of our favorite homes we have rented so far. Our family comes to Pajaro every year and we stay in a different house each time. I would definitely recommend this property!

    We rented this house with another family to celebrate our daughter’s winter break birthday. We live nearby but felt like we were a million miles away during our stay at this amazing beachfront property. Everything in the description is accurate and there were no surprises. The house was very clean and well cared for. The view was incredible, especially with the winter sunsets. We enjoyed a fire in the pellet stove one night but we had good weather and didn’t really need a fire. The hot tub on the deck overlooking the ocean is priceless. I was absolutely amazed at how well stocked the house was. The kitchen has everything you need and more—multiple coffee pots, blender, kitchen aid mixer, pans, spices, serving platters galore, etc. Plus every room has multiple extra pillows and blankets and towels. Thank you for an amazing stay! I hope we will come back again!

    We love house 42! Its beach views and living space are unmatched- room for the whole extended family to gather, play games, stare at the ocean, watch wildlife. We can cook and eat large family meals, and there’s room for the whole gang to sleep comfortably (10 adults and a baby, spanning four generations). The house is well appointed with everything we need. The hot tub is a gem. Greg and his team are great hosts and very responsive to questions. Highly recommend.

    Our family had a wonderful time together in this lovely home. Our son had been deployed for months and it was a chance for all of us to be together under one roof to celebrate his return. The home is unbelievably equipped for large groups. T/he kitchen has literally every item you could imagine for preparing family meals. Cook pots, popcorn maker, you name it! Beds were comfortable and the home is quite spacious. It seemed as though the cleaning staff hadn't been in for a while, as there was dust all over, but otherwise the home was very tidy. Our only disappointing incident was with my daughter's service animal. By law, service animals are not considered pets, and do not need to be disclosed on any rental agreements. She did notify the staff upon check in at the front gate, and was told that it was unnecessary to list the animal, as it wasn't a pet. We then had a neighbor complain about seeing a dog on the property and security came to give us a citation, As soon as they knew we had a service animal that apologized and left without incident. This was seen as a simple misunderstanding. However, the owner called the house to yell at my daughter about having a pet on his property. And then, he added an extra charge to our account for having a pet. When I brought this to VRBO they graciously removed the charge. But, It was disappointing that the owner is uneducated about the Americans with Disabilities Act and respect for those with disabilities.
