Pajaro Dunes is a beautiful place and this unit is in a great location, near the southern end of the property, second to the last building. Less people on the beach! The third floor means you are above the dunes with a great ocean view. But the way it faces, your indoor view is limited by the TV in the window and the fireplace (duraflame logs only) in the way. This view is only fully seen from outside on the balcony. We have stayed at other units in Pajaro and found them to be clean, well furnished and equipped. But this unit is neglected and a bit beat up. The kitchen is far from fully equipped, so plan on bringing some basic cooking stuff from home. The kitchen lighting is so dim that you will need a flashlight to read a box instructions. Safety wise, the master bedroom exterior sliding door has no lock, and the other slider's lock is tricky to latch. The front bedroom has no screen (child hazard) and other screens are torn. There is a large TV in the main bedroom, but a small one blocking the view from the living room window. Why have they not mounted the large one over the fireplace? I spent a bit of time fixing things so they did not irritate me the whole time I stayed there. For instance, none of the lamps turned on with the light switch. I corrected this on 2 bedrooms, but the front one has no place to put a lamp in the switched socket. The shower flow was only a trickle, took it off and solved that, but then the drain was too slow and filled the shower up rapidly. All good after plunging, but really, should I be a handyman on my vacation? By the way, that is one TINY shower! There is no comfortable seating in the living area. The owners rules are quite strict with implied penalties, but the upkeep and amenities were not in line with this strictness. I realize that the draw is the AWESOME beachfront access a few steps away, but the price is not in line with this units condition.
