Top Zmudowski State Beach Hotel Reviews

At The Beach! Insanely Great Beach House, Ocean Views, Relaxation & Pickleball

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect place for our family to enjoy Parajo Dunes.We graduated from the condos to a house and we have found the place that everybody loved!!10 thumbs up!!"

Pajaro Dunes Beachfront - Hot Tub + Direct Beach Access

10/10 Excellent

"We were four ladies, celebrating our collective 70th birthday. We were all very impressed with the property. The lovely view of the ocean from the livingroom set the tone for our trip. Each of us had our own rooms which were well appointed. We all slept well, no complaints about the beds.I think our favorite thing was being able to sit, facing the beach outside with our toes in the sand. I think we would gladly return to this property.Note: the pictures of the kitchen mentions a Mocha Master coffee maker. It was not there. Also, the fire pit has been removed because of fire restrictions."
