There is NO other rental home like this at Pajaro Dunes -- it is very large, oceanfront, generously equipped and offers wide open views from Monterey to Santa Cruz. Live the "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" on your vacation and share with your nearest and dearest.

"BEST OF DUNES" manages ONLY Pajaro Dunes homes, 100% through a Pajaro Dunes homeowner / rental professional who is available 24/7 for your custom needs. We provide 5-star service 24/7, and the best homes for rent at Pajaro Dunes.

Highlights: beachfront LUXE with 180 degree views; several GOLF options; TWO amazing chef's kitchens fully stocked; play inside and out with games/toys/pool table/pingpong/pickleball/
tennis/basketball/volleyball/surfing/more!

House 59 is a 4500+ SqFt, double-wide single family home with 75 feet of beach frontage and a 50 foot long balcony - unusually large for a front row home at Pajaro Dunes! This home will exceed your expectations in ways you never thought possible at Pajaro Dunes. Due to house height restrictions you simply will not find another home of this size and capacity in the oceanfront row of homes -- secure your spot now so you don't have to break up your family into multiple properties!

The layout of this home offers the ultimate convenience for multiple families or multiple generations who want to stay in one home together rather than rent multiple properties. Two full primary bedroom suites offer mom and dad, and grandma and grandpa, all the luxury and privacy you deserve. Enjoy ALL your time together in quality accommodations for a combined cost that is less than the price of two rental homes!

NOTE: NEW ELECTRIC FIREPLACE WITH REMOTE CONTROL- no wood

This home has five separate bedrooms (two with private bathrooms) with 6 separate beds, and many, many conversation spaces. A family/media room downstairs can be used as a sixth "open" bedroom with fold down couches (adding two more full sized beds = 8 total beds comprised of 4 king, 4 full size).

The top floor encompasses TWO full living rooms with many cozy gathering areas, conversation seating areas, and multiple dining tables. For entertainment, you'll find...

The highlight of the top floor is the oceanfront, west-facing 50 foot balcony with outdoor dining seating for your entire group of up to 12 adults + 2 kids. Enjoy the incredible sunsets with a gourmet dinner or a glass of wine from two chaise lounges. Look for humpback whale spouts, dolphins, seals, and coastal birds from this incredible vantagepoint. The panoramic view spans from the Monterey Peninsula in the south, all the way to Santa Cruz to the north.

• BRAND NEW full size refrigerators, stoves/ovens, dishwashers and microwaves
