I had a wonderful experience at Monarch Beach Resort, with highlights including stunning rooms and great service. The location is perfect for beach access and the amenities were delightful. However, the dining was a mixed bag and could use some improvement in terms of presentation. Overall, I would say it was a memorable stay, but some aspects felt short of the luxury mark especially with the dining experience.

My stay at the hotel offered stunning views and an elegant atmosphere, making it a memorable experience. While the accommodations were impressive and the amenities were enjoyable, the service fell short at times due to staffing issues.

I had high hopes for this resort, especially since we were celebrating our anniversary and are Diamond members. While there's no denying that the grounds are beautiful and the pools are lovely, my overall experience was quite disappointing due to issues with our room and service. It felt like we paid a premium for what turned out to be a lacking stay and unexpected charges. If you're looking for an exceptional experience, you might want to approach with caution.
Rooms
5.0
Our 'upgraded' room had a pool view description, but we only saw grass, and it was noisy. Cleanliness was also an issue with various spots needing attention.
Service
5.0
While the waitstaff at the dining areas were courteous, response to our issues was lacking, with no real follow-up or resolution to the dog barking disturbance.
Location
8.0
The resort is beautifully situated near the beach with easy tram access, which was a nice touch for getting to the beach quickly.
Dining
5.0
The dining experience was subpar for what we expected; the billing was incorrect, and the food didn't justify the high prices.
Facilities
7.0
The pool area is well-maintained, offering a nice balance for both families and adults, but amenities should match the luxurious billing.
