Home owners and renters enjoy gathering at the private beach bluff park each evening to celebrate the lovely sunsets over dinner or a favorite appetizer and beverage. There is a private parking lot at the bluff for owners, renters and guests.
The beautiful beach is called "The Strands" in Monarch Beach, a favorite surfing spot for many. This is the same beach to the famous St. Regis and Ritz Carlton Hotels and the newly developed "Headlands" community with multi-million dollar estates.

Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Monarch Beach
We chose this 24-hour guard gated community for all of the amenities it provides for us and our two school age children where they can be free and independent. We enjoy the community pool, jacuzzi, new club house, tennis courts, basketball court and large grassy playground. We are walking distance to the heart of Dana Point and a short drive north is Laguna Beach.
The Unique Benefits of this Townhome
After a day at the beach, we enjoy barbecuing with friends and a few lively games on the putting green while we watch the sunset over the ocean.

We just received the following email from a lovely family in Texas who rented our town home for the month of July: "Our family thoroughly enjoyed our month stay at this vacation rental! The décor and furnishings were great and the kitchen had everything I needed as we enjoy cooking very much. Our three boys loved the putting green and caught some good waves on the boogie boards! We look forward to staying here again!" Vandling Family Heath Texas
