Top Pajaro Dunes Hotel Reviews

Marea Sol Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Front dest was warm and helpful"

Casa Munras Garden Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Pleasant staff and good food at restaurant. Also close to downtown and Old Fisherman's Wharf."

Stargazer Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We really liked it here! It is very convenient to the Monterey aquarium and Cannery Row area. We were able to walk to restaurants for dinner. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was very cute and clean. My only complaint is that the outside lights shined right inside the room because they only have shutters, not any kind of blackout curtains or shades, so the room never really got dark at night. Luckily, I always travel with an eye mask. Other than that, I thought it was a great place and I would definitely stay here again."
