Clean, comfortable, and well appointed!
We had a lovely stay in this Pajaro Dunes condo. Steps to the sand and well stocked with everything needed. It was clean and ready on our arrival and the host was helpful and friendly. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect beach getaway
From the large master, to the large table and couch, shorebirds 263 is the perfect getaway. There was a ton of seating, tennis racquets (courts nearby), full kitchen with silverware and everything needed to place your food in. Lots of games to play in cupboards! Shampoo and soap was included with towels. Super comfortable bed with mattress pad. Beautiful views! We went during a storm but we loved being inside and watching the weather and waves crash. First aid kit also included! Great walking path, great accommodations overall and everything was so clean!

Beautiful beach condo, mostly great
This place offered us most of what we needed for a long sisters’ weekend. Here are the pros and cons: Pros: Amazingly beautiful views Very close proximity to the beach Quiet, peaceful and safe Full kitchen and lots of plates/utensils Nice patio to sit and watch the ocean Cons: Unclear check in process Poor wifi signal 2/3 rooms had uncomfortable beds Some poorly working or non working appliances (washer/dryer, hand mixer) This place is almost a gem and if some of the “cons” were addressed, it would be incredible and worth revisiting.

Beautiful condo by the sea
This is a wonderful place to spend time with family. It includes a large living room and dining space, perfect for sharing meals, playing games, and curling up to watch a movie. The walk to the beach is a quick 30 seconds. Cannot recommend highly enough!

Ocean serenity
Our family gathered here for our annual event. We loved it! Just steps from the beach which allowed us to catch the beautiful sunsets each evening. The kids had a great time playing in the sand. Thanks a great place for us to get together.

Relaxing Beach-Side Stay
We definitely enjoyed our stay here but have a short list of items which the owner should be aware of. These are not for public viewing, but to assist the owner in addressing a number of things. How can I contact the owner?

Pleasant location
We had a very nice time, the place was comfortable and the location great. We usually stay at Pelican so it was nice to try a different location. A couple of comments: The Wifi was not secure which is a problem The sink and garbage disposal were clogged and stunk The old toilets are very inefficient with water and use 4 times more water than modern ones…yet there was a sign urging us to save water!!!

Great property and beach for kids
Good property. Worked good for kids. They enjoyed the loft and were able to climb up and down on their own (youngest was 4 yrs old). Beach is super close and also great for kids. Waves were not too big and beach is gradually sloping. Property had everything we needed but a spaghetti strainer, but lots of other options to make it work. Lots of bedding and extra blankets. Overall a great stay.

Pleasantly surprised
263 had been upgraded after the pictures on the website were posted. The only issues were the washer/dryer did not work and when we called about it no one returned our call. The other issue was it was somewhat cofusing checking in. I had rented 2 places under my name. When my son arrived before me there was confusion at check-in as to the 2nd rental at Shorebirds.

Absolutely perfect!!!
I happened to stumble upon this place looking for a beach rental for my family (for my birthday). Originally I had booked a unit that was on the 3rd floor (by accident), which my handicapped mother would not be able to access. I called and spoke with Justin the manager, he quickly had a solution which turned out to be a blessing in disguise!! Not only were we now on the ground floor, but our backyard was the ocean!!!! From the moment we stepped on to the property, we were pleased. Everything from the Gate attendant to the locals (we met an amazing couple Sherry and Elliot, and their Dog Hank) was amazing! The unit itself was set up for 8 people, and we all fit very comfortably. It was absolutely super clean, well stocked, more towels then I think our local Walmart has..lol!! They provided tidepods, toiletries, trashbags..you name it, they had it! The Beach (which was literally 50 ft from our unit) was absolutely stunning, clean, pretty much empty and seashells for miles. We saw the most beautiful Sunset over the Santa Cruz beach just to the west of us, had a bonfire at night. Woke up to the sound of crashing waves...I could go on and on...We were able to go south to Monterey for the day (30min) and North to Santa Cruz for the day (also 30min). We will absolutely be making this our annual summer trip for years to come! Also, my Mom (who has high blood pressure) was actually having the best readings she's had for so long, the beach therapy was just what she needed! Thanks so much for allowing us to stay in this beautiful place🥰

Great Location, Worn Unit
This was my first trip to Pajaro Dunes. I stayed in the Shorebirds side and was very pleased with the location to the beach and the overall operation of the complex. I was surprised to see how overcast that area is in the summer, but it was fine. Being on the third floor, I had to climb the steep stairs so someone with limited mobility should stay on the second or first floor where there is a ramp to access those units. The unit I stayed in needs a major update. The problem wasn't so much it being outdated, it was just not up to the standards of the complex as a whole. The carpets and curtains both smelled and showed signs of mold. I just noticed that someone else also complained in these reviews a couple of years ago about the mold, so clearly that needs to be addressed. Also update the electronics, the TV is one of those big old tube televisions, with no hookups for HDMI. For what I paid a night for the unit, I just expected a little more.

Wonderful Place
This was a great place to stay! Plenty of room, easy access to beach, nice view, stocked kitchen. Our family had the best time and will defiantly be back. The only thing that I would say anything about is that there is no where to put your dry food away due to all the cupboards being full and no shelf space in the "pantry" so you have to leave it out on the counter which takes up the space. Can't wait to book again!
