Great location. Friendly helpful staff. Clean room. We enjoyed our visit to the Monarch Resort. The room had a fireplace and partial ocean view. There is a pool and jacuzzi. Continental breakfast from 7:30 to 10 am. A very peaceful and over all great place to stay.

We tried multiple hotel rooms on the Pacific coast and this was by far the best value for good price. Good service, good price, clean rooms. Quiet area. Higly satisfied.
