Very clean on arrrival. The 3rd floor was tough as we are senior citizens. We liked the walk in shower. The view from the 3rd floor was great.

Nice place to stay

We enjoyed our stay. This unit has everything you need and has a nice ocean view. The community is lovely and there is a scenic path to the ocean. We loved Salt Creek Beach and Strands Beach. The bathroom could use an upgrade but it was fine. We would stay here again.

Dana Point Gem

I really loved my stay here. The neighborhood is quiet, safe and beautiful. The condo is impeccably clean and had everything I needed plus it has great ocean breezes and view. The walk down to the beach through the golf course is amazing. I felt like I was at my second home and hope to come back again.

Great home, close to beach!

The complex is a quiet place to get away. This unit's 3rd floor location gives ocean views. We loved the proximity to walking trails that connected to Salt Creek Beach. Hosts were helpful, responsive. Highly recommend.

Lovely Monarch condo

This unit is in a secure gated community with a beautiful path through the golf course to the beach. Well stocked to make your stay comfortable. Ocean view from the porch was such a plus!!! The one bath is extremely tiny but that can't be changed.

Great location and value, clean and comfortable

We were surprised that for the price, this condo is in a great, gated location and the complex is very quiet. The unit feels clean and well maintained, and even the covered parking is a plus. It’s definitely best for one or two people, as the bathroom is in the bedroom and is relatively small. However, for a couple it’s perfect. The king size mattress is a bit softer than we typically like, but we probably like a firmer mattress than most. In any case, this is a condo we would definitely recommend and stay in again. Beautiful walk to the beach from there. Very well managed, too.

Lovely Monarch Hills Condo

A very clean, well stocked comfortable unit in a safe, quiet location near many areas of interest while vacationing near Dana Point. The ocean view from the balcony was such an extra surprise plus the trail down to the local beach which started in the neighborhood also in the gated community was so nice. I walked most of the trail everyday! The kitchen could use more silverware especially when you have company over to eat. The one bathroom is extremely tiny but that is out of the owner's control. Easy check in and check out with Vacasa.
