Holiday Stay at the Beach

We loved our stay at Jeff and Pam's home in the Monterey Dunes Colony! The view was beautiful and the beach was just steps away. The large kitchen was fully stocked with spices, oils, coffee, appliances (blender, cuisinart, toaster, and slow cooker for example) and all the dishes and utensils one could possibly need. We enjoyed the closet with puzzles and games which also housed movies and beach toys and equipment for the various courts at the nearby clubhouse. We were able to kayak at Elkhorn Slough, visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Carmel and Point Lobos and even volunteer for a day at Esalen from this perfect peaceful base.

Great stay in Monterey Dunes

Jeff and Pam have done an amazing job making this place feel warm and welcoming as well as beautiful. They stock it generously with everything a good cook might want as well as with games and plenty of in-home entertainment options. They were responsive in real time, made the checkin process easy and left good, clear instructions for the most important things we needed to know. A wonderful contrast to another unit we stayed in previously managed by Monterey Dunes Company, which was poorly stocked with insufficient cutlery and just about everything else as well as and never got properly repaired with responses to requests often taking days.

We were able to totally be at rest and allow the immersion in the soundscape of the ocean to hold us and nourish us. Jeff and Pam's place was most conducive for this and met our expectations. I'd return here in the future.

Our family had a wonderful time at Jeff & Pam's beautiful place!! The ocean view was incredible and we loved hearing the sound of the waves. The recommendations from Jeff & Pam were very helpful & our kids loved the snacks that were left for guests. The short walk to the beach was a big highlight. This was one of our favorite places we have stayed at & we hope to visit again soon!

Absolutely wonderful stay!

Our family absolutely loved our stay here. We stay in a lot of rentals and this one really stood out for the level of attention payed to making sure you had everything you needed. Our boys 11 and 14 were super excited about the container of snacks, upon entry they said right away that we needed to leave a 5 star review. But most we loved the view, the sunsets, beach, and the relaxing atmosphere. It was extremely clean and well kept. All the beds were very comfortable with nice linens. Kitchen was beautiful with everything we needed from spices to actually sharp knives. Visited both Monterey and Pinnacles NP. It was a great stay!!

Amazing view!

My husband, mother in law, and my newly wedded sister in law and her husband traveled from Sacramento down to Monterey for 4 days to relax, and bond with family. The view was absolutely stunning the moment you enter the beach house. The house is spacious, and was perfect for our group of 5; it had literally everything we needed, including complimentary wine and snacks. The hot tub was perfect temperature to relax in the evenings, and was very close to the rental. I would absolutely take my family to stay here again in the future, and I really hope to get the option do so. Thank you so much for making our stay perfect!

The best house for a beach vacation!!

We had a month long vacation with family in California and out of all the houses we stayed at this one was our favorite!! I would move in forever if i could :) The location and views are so amazing. You have a whole beach just for yourself. Dolphins and whales swim by as you watch them from the living room!! Every amenity we needed was there, the house is packed with supplies and ready for staying very comfortablely. The check in process was so easy. The host was very accommodating and helpful with lots of recommendations in the area. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend this house! Don't think twice, just book it before someone else will :) I hope we could come back some day...

UNBELIEVABLE HOSPITALITY

We have rented many places but the owners of this rental went way beyond the norm. Besides the beautiful few, they left a welcome bottle of champagne and chocolates. They also provided a tub full of munchies. The beds and bedding were sooo comfortable. They also provided nice toilet paper and tissues, not the scratchy kind that are at most rentals. The kitchen was well stocked of pans, utensils, spices. everything that you would ever need. We will definitely stay here again.
