Relax and enjoy the views in our family friendly beach house!


Come relax and enjoy our Pajaro Dunes beach house.
Hose 85 has everything you need for your next trip and we are excited to share our home with you. The beach is quiet, the views are amazing and you can hear the ocean in every room.

Pajaro Dunes is a serene private beach community located on a secluded stretch of beach with miles of coastline to walk, run and explore.

Our home is perfect for groups looking to relax and enjoy quality beach time together as well as those wishing to explore the beautiful Monterey Bay area.

Wake up to the sounds of the waves while enjoying the view from one of our many beach facing windows or the large front deck.

The beach access is right in front of our home. Have fun walking along the beach, gathering shells, or jumping the waves. The large beach is perfect for frisbee, soccer, football, kite flying, picnics, sand castle building and reading. Just down the road are the tennis courts, pickle ball courts, basketball courts and designated walking paths.

Want to relax inside? The open floor plan and extra table space allows for puzzles and games while enjoying the views.

3 generation family vacation. Beautiful beach view from the living areas and bedroom. Nice deck with table and chairs to enjoy outside dining. Perfect location with beach access right across the street. We bring enough food and drinks for the week so we don’t have to leave. The garage and driveway parking made unloading easy and convenient. Plenty of beach toys, boogie boards, and even a life jacket for the kids. Toys, games, and puzzles for both kids and adults for the rainy day that we stayed inside. Communication with the owner was excellent, and the chocolates and note they left for us was a welcoming touch. We would definitely stay here again.

This house was perfect for our three generations of family. There was plenty of space and was well stocked for our group. And the beach access was right there, which led to many walks down the beach. We look forward to booking this house again for our next family get together!

Pajaro Dunes Peaceful Retreat

The location is amazing, walk across the street, up steps and down to the beach. It’s very quiet, peaceful and private feeling. The house had everything we needed to be comfortable and the small children had so much fun with the toys and puzzles that were available. The house is dated but it’s very comfortable and affordable and the owners were extremely nice and accommodating.

Neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, with only the sounds of waves, birds and the occasional laughter of families playing. We’ll most certainly be back- May now be an annual tradition.

We Love This House

My family loves this beach house and everything about it. My kids, nieces, and nephews look forward to staying here and only here. They are never curious about other properties. We saw a few dolphins and otters. We made castles in the sand and enjoyed the volleyball court. The best part is the constantly hearing the crashing waves. The worst part is leaving. Thank you Allegretti Family for letting us stay in your lovely home.

Beautiful location and house was big enough for us all we will probably return to Pajaro dunes. We enjoyed the wildlife, surfing, fishing, shopping, the BarBQue at the house and much more. Thank you. P. S. The freezer is leaking water in the ice maker side & will eventually break. We cleared it out a few times during our stay. The big bad of ice was there when we arrived.

No need to leave once you check in!

Property is great. I’ve rented condos in the Pajaro Dunes Shorebirds but needed something bigger for my cousin group of 10. Was worried about the 6 cars we had…working moms couldn’t get it together enough to completely carpool but parking wasn’t an issue! Kitchen has everything you need including cutting boards, coffee maker, and counter space! Slept 10 comfortably with some bed sharing and we didn’t mind the day of bad weather as you could still watch the ocean from the windows. Big table seated us all comfortably and was great for all of the games we played. Would stay again.
