Picture this: It's 100 degrees inland, but you're sipping a crisp glass of Central Coast rosé on a private porch, wrapped in a light sweater as the cool breeze drifts off the lake. Welcome to Dune Lakes – a hidden gem on California’s Central Coast where luxury meets nature and the vibe is always just right.


Tucked between five private lakes, rolling sand dunes, eucalyptus groves, and the golden coastline, Dune Lakes is not your typical vacation rental. It’s where elegant serenity meets laid-back California magic. And here’s the real secret? It’s usually 20 to 25 degrees cooler than those toasty inland cities – meaning you’ll actually enjoy being outside.


🌊 Why Dune Lakes Should Be Your Next Getaway

From wine tasting in Edna Valley to oysters on the coast, Dune Lakes is the ultimate hub for foodies, beach lovers, and anyone who craves a little bougie peace and quiet.


🥂 Wine Lovers, Rejoice

You’re less than 20 minutes from some of California’s best boutique wineries.

  • Sip award-winning pinot noir at @claibornechurchill

  • Stroll the vines at @talleyvineyards

  • Discover hidden gems like @chamisalvines, @ednavalleyvineyard, and @biddle_ranch_vineyard

Be back at Dune Lakes in time for a golden hour Aperol Spritz on the porch.
