It was a 3 minute walk to the beach which is amazing. The house itself was wonderful and had amazing views. The neighbors and staff were very nice as well, which made the environment more welcoming. It was nice knowing that there are carts to haul your stuff to your place or car because the uphill climb is a bit tougher if you have to make multiple trips to your car. They also have pickleball, basketball, and tennis courts. I loved that they had a storage for the recreational area where you can borrow equipment. They also had a ping pong table which we loved. overall, I would definitely come back!

(So much more reasonable than other sites.) (before you pay the heavy prices at AirBNB or VRBO -reach out to Stacey at BestofDunes.com.) Walking into 59 Avocet could not be anything less than amazing! This place is incredible! Decorated with such care for the comfort of guests. I couldn't decide where to sit and watch the ocean - because not only is there Several seating areas - but each more comfortable than the next (my bad back was in heaven. ) Oceanview? Wow- just about anywhere you are in this house ! The giant floor to ceiling windows and open floor plan makes the views that much more Incredible. All I could say is - the photos don't do it justice. The deck with several tables, chairs and lounges had us out there Whale watching for hours. There's even a patio downstairs off One of the master bedrooms (yep there is 2 Master Suites (with Giant tubs!) If you want to get away for some chill time - THIS place is beyond Perfect - there was only two of us (myself and my Pool shark husband) yep - they have a pool table and a ping pong topper but 5+ couples could comfortably stay here (even more!) Perfect place for kiddies to play in a separate playroom, with a giant TV and a bazillion DVD's if that's your thing. I stopped counting how many TV's...and um 2 Kitchens? Yep, fully stocked with anything you want and too many type of coffee makers to mention (if you want to make a cake from scratch...even a mixer!) The only thing that stopped me from some moments of chill time was adventuring around this home, I kept finding more rooms and more special touches for guests! Tubs? Say Ahhhhh - cause there's actually 3 in this home! The stairs to get onto the beach are only steps away...but honestly - sitting out on the deck (or inside on one of the bazillion couches) ...well you just can't beat that. Yes, yes, you can rent this and other vacation homes at Pajaro Dunes from other sites, but I'm all about saving money and I love the secure feeling of a more personal touch when I rent vacation locations- BestofDunes.com gave me everything I needed (and more) for 3 days I will long remember. When I dream of winning the lottery, 'This' is the house I dream of buying the day after I cash my ticket in So future renters better be quick before it's mine ;) Until then -Definitely go to BestofDunes.com to rent at Pajaro Dunes if location and service is on top of your list! Thank you so much Stacey for making our stay special in this magical home possible-You Rock!! We Will be back!

Their breadth and depth in real estate is truly impressive and their evaluation of our home was spot on. Ben and Shawndy really listened to us--our financial goals, our budget for home repairs and our wish to retain the charm of our older home. We've bought and sold a few houses, and no real estate company in our experience (or that of our friends) has the degree of understanding about moving as Strock Realty. They know it's hard. Supporting the seller and making relationships with them is built into their mission and structure. How many times did they ask us 'How can we help you?" I lost track. Ben and Shawndy offer competent workers, handy persons, design service and so much support. Their marketing services use state of the art tech and their long experience in the community made us feel tremendously at ease with the showings and confident about selling. When we moved out of state and left the house in their hands, Ben and Shawndy sent us weekly updates, answered our many questions, and gave us well-informed, professional recommendations. And, when the house was in contract, that long distance process, ending in closing, was quite smooth. We are in awe of Strock Real Estate's success and vision as a full service agency, and the amazing people who make that happen. Thank you, thank you, Ben and Shawndy.

Review of shorebird 55 (Let me begin by saying that this review was submitted to At the Dunes…read morerental agency but never posted on their site.) Pros: *excellent beach access * lovely ocean view Cons: *furniture, towels, sheets in generally rundown condition *master bedroom has 1 bedside table and 1 lamp. I ended bringing in a small corroded outdoor iron table and moving a lamp from the second bedroom. * one floor lamp in the entire living room. Generally poor lighting. *Peeling paint in bathroom *mold in bathroom corners *uncomfortable living room furniture-outdoor wicker, way past it's comfort usage. No support. *unwashed sheets in second bedroom, unwashed towel in master bath. ( the rental agency was very responsive about this) In this time of Covid, these discoveries made our stay uncomfortable. Was this place really sanitized before our arrival? My point here is that a rental at the beach, for $400+/ night, should be comfortable in all aspects. This was not. For a total of $1800 for four nights, I would have expected much more.

Beautiful kitchen, fully equipped, 3 bedrm 3 full baths, and an upstairs patio to watch the beach along with the nightly sunset.

The first night it rained but we cozied up to the electric fireplace and pulled the blinds up to watch the ocean from the huge windows in the living room. I had friends that arrive on Saturday and were amazed on the views and the location of the property and asked for property info as they are going to book this particular home.

Pete is a great guy and an awesome real estate agent…read more He recently helped me and my husband buy our first home and stuck with us through thick and thin. He worked with us 5 years ago when we had no idea what we wanted or how much we felt comfortable spending or who we wanted to buy with. After 9 months of him showing us a ton of places and being very patient with our indecision, we decided to put the whole thing off - this fall when we came back to him he was still happy to work with us even after our sorta crazy requests 5 years ago. I'd say everything about Pete is great, but some highlights are: 1. His knowledge of building is really helpful in getting a basic idea of what you are really buying. 2. As he says, he works 24-7, and is extremely accommodating when it comes to working with your schedule. 3. He's honest and up front. He's not just trying to make a sale, but find something that works for you. 4. He's a really kind and caring person. After closing on our home he's gone the extra mile to help us get quotes from local contractors on some repairs we are having done.

I am submitting this review on behalf of my mother, who was Lauren's client…read more "I first heard about Lauren Spencer from my daughter when she sold her house in Santa Cruz. Lauren was the agent representing the buyer, and my daughter was so impressed with her professionalism that she recommended her to me when it was time for me to move. Lauren and her associate represented me when I was looking for a home closer to my daughter. They paid attention to what I was looking for and were patient and sensitive to my needs as I looked at many properties. They gave knowledgeable and honest advice about making an offer and guided me through the process of escrow and closing. I really got to know Lauren well when she represented me as the seller of my mountain home of 40 years. She knew exactly what upgrades were needed in order to maximize its sale potential. I invested in her expert advice as she brought in high quality professionals from her many local contacts to transform its dated interior into something more modern that would appeal to today's buyers. She has an extensive marketing program, using a crew of excellent stagers, photographers, and multimedia advertisers. Not only did I get an excellent price for my home, but I have the satisfaction of knowing that I was represented by someone of the highest integrity and decency. Lauren is an exceptional realtor and a wonderful person. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home."

My wife and I loved the option of putting the boys to bed upstairs and adjourning to the downstairs for a glass of wine, listening to some music, and chatting, without disturbing the sleepers. There was even an extra room downstairs that I made into an office away from home. The location is just a short walk to the beach, where the boys could run for days. The local esplanade has a collection of restaurants, all very serviceable, which we enjoyed. Not far away is the quaint town of Aptos proper, with some really great restaurants and the entrance to a really neat park where we walked for several miles (thank goodness for the off-road stroller we brought). All in all a great place to stay for some quiet relaxation with many fun activities nearby. Will stay there again!
