BEST OCEAN-FRONT HOME IN PAJARO DUNES, MONTEREY BAY - NEWLY RENOVATED

Experience the Ultimate Luxury Getaway at Pajaro Dunes!

California is home to some of the most breathtaking beaches in the world, and Pajaro Dunes is no exception. Tucked within a pristine coastal sanctuary, this exclusive beachfront retreat offers front-row seats to nature’s wonders—watch dolphins play in the waves, spot majestic whales in the distance, and admire sea otters floating effortlessly in the surf. As the sun sets over the Pacific, prepare to be mesmerized by the vivid colors painting the sky—an experience you’ll never forget.

A Landmark Home, Now Completely Transformed
Originally built by Senator Dianne Feinstein, this iconic oceanfront home has long been a beloved landmark in the Pajaro Dunes community. Now, after an extensive luxury remodel, it has been completely reimagined with top-of-the-line finishes, designer interiors, and high-end appliances—making it one of the most exclusive rentals in the area.

Step inside to soaring high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the home with natural light, creating an airy, open-concept layout that maximizes the breathtaking ocean views. The brand-new gourmet kitchen features state-of-the-art appliances, custom cabinetry, and premium stone countertops, making it a dream for home chefs and entertainers alike.

Unparalleled Outdoor Living
Unique to Pajaro Dunes, this home offers the best of both worlds—a spacious ocean-facing deck where you can sip your morning coffee while listening to the waves, and a private courtyard in the back, complete with an elegant dining and lounging area, perfect for sunset dinners or cozy evenings by the fire.

A private driveway offers convenient parking for up to three cars, and just steps from the front door, a staircase leads directly to the sandy beach—making it effortless to enjoy the sun, surf, and coastal beauty.

The Perfect Coastal Escape
Located within a secure, gated community, this retreat is ideally positioned just 20 miles from Capitola Village and Santa Cruz, and 25 miles from Monterey and Carmel. Whether you’re exploring the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, hiking among the majestic redwoods, indulging in world-class dining, or visiting the renowned Monterey Bay Aquarium and central coast wineries, your stay at House 48 offers the perfect balance of luxury, relaxation, and adventure.

Experience Pajaro Dunes like never before—where modern luxury meets coastal charm. Book your stay today!

We had a fabulous stay at this home! We were specifically looking for a beachfront property with three king bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, and this house delivered perfectly. The remodel is beautiful, with large windows, a stunning waterfall island, and spacious living areas that made it easy for all of us to relax and enjoy.It was the perfect setup for me, my husband, my adult sister, and our parents for a long weekend. The neighborhood is gorgeous, the house had everything we needed, and we truly enjoyed our time here. We would definitely stay again!

Family Beach Vacation

This property couldn't have been more perfect for our large group of 12. Everyone had plenty of space and the view was spectacular. Lots of seabirds and we even saw an otter out in the surf. The house was fully stocked with everything you might need for a fun vacation with kids and adults in mind. We even discovered pickleball! Who knew it would be so fun?? Carl was responsive and made our stay run smoothly. All around a top-notch experience.

A great escape

This property is incredible, and we had a great time. Check-in was a breeze; the house is well-stocked, the Wi-Fi worked great, and there were plenty of extras for travelers who want to enjoy the beach but didn't bring all the necessary items, such as sand buckets, kites, and chairs. We saw whales and sea otters every day, and the host recommended some restaurants that we enjoyed. Our kids enjoyed the beach, table tennis in the garage, and a visit to a local farm where they picked strawberries. We would stay here again and hope to be back next Summer.
