What fond memories of monarch beach are with me this morning. Now that the holidays have come and gone. The location is so beautiful. How wonderful to be so close to the Pacific. While swimming, we encountered three dolphins playing in the water right on the beach with us! The condo is the perfect size and the decor is welcoming. It was such an easy drive to Disneyland and other tourist attractions. But we found ourselves just wanting to be there, at Monarch Beach. Thank you so much for a memory that will last a lifetime for my whole family. I am so blessed to have found such a wonderful place! Again, Dee, the transaction was easy and working with you was a pleasure! I missed it the moment we drove away. The time we spent there will always be in my heart! Forever in your debt,......Cherise,
'An ideal location for a southern California family holiday, mid way between LA and San Diego with easy access to both. With a five minute walk to the beach and all of its activities, combined with other amenities nearby we will certainly consider returning. The condo was clean and well equiped for a highly enjoyable vacation. The views of the sun setting over the ocean were spectacular.' - Doug M., Edmonton, Al,
We had a great time at your place. The weather was great and the condo was close to everything. Thanks again. Judith Erwied' - Judith

'My family and I loved our stay at your beautiful condo. It had everything we needed and was so clean and inviting when we arrived. The beach was absolutely beautiful and so private - my kids loved it! We would definitely consider staying at your condo the next time we're in California.

'Nice condo with everything you need to enjoy the beach and surrounding area. Perfect home away from home well equipped with comfortable beds. Dana Point is fabulous and close to Disney, Legoland, Hollywood, San Diego Zoo and more! Only one down side....too short a visit! We would recommend this area and condo to anyone visiting the area! The Alvarado Family' - Anita A., Bryant, AR,
'We had a fabulous stay! The beach was perfect and so was the condo. Very roomy, clean, and quiet. We also loved the pool and hot tub. The condo was centrally located between Universal Studios and Sea World. Close to Disneyland too. Thanks, we had a great vacation!' - Suzanne A., Mapleton, UT,
'We have stayed at many different places in Southern California over the years, and Dee's condo is the best of the bunch. The public space and beach access just across the road are superb. Our 4 children would have been happy to just stay close by and enjoy the beautiful beach and pool, but we did take some day trips to enjoy other Orange County gems, like Laguna which is very close. The condo is very well equipped and comfortable, my favorite spot was the patio off the master bedroom with a view of the Pacific Ocean and Catalina Island in the distance. It seems to me that this neighborhood is a well kept secret - Dee's condo makes it available for those of us who are not lucky enough to be Orange County residents year round. Many thanks for the wonderful memories, we hope to be back soon! April 2010 ' - Sarah P., Elm Grove, WI,
'We had a wonderful stay at your Condo. If we decide in the future to have another family reunion in California I certainly will consider your Condos. ' - Robert H., QUEENSLAND ,AU,
'We had a great time!!! We really enjoyed your place, the beach and all the other fun places nearby. We may be back next year, if you place is available. Have a nice day! ' - Paul R., Idaho Falls, ID,

Thank you so much for staying with us. Loved having you and your lovely wife.
Just let me know when planning a visiback to Dana Point. I will be here for you. Dee
Weather wasn't perfect, but it hasn't been anywhere this year. We had a good stay with family coming at various times. Lots of relaxing at the pool and hot tub.
Dee’s place was exactly as listed. A perfect getaway for my family in a wonderful location. She was quick to solve the one minor issue that came up during our 3 month stay sending heaters immediately when the furnace had a slight hiccup. We enjoyed our visit very much.

Great place to stay
Across the street from the ocean. Have your morning cup of coffee with a tremendous view. Wifi worked fine even with several people using it. Condo was clean and convenient to pool, trash and parking. Your are right near lots of restaurants and shopping. You need a car to easily get to places although there is bus service but I didn't use it. I would recommend it to everyone particularly since there are twin beds in one of the bedrooms...most condo rentals provide only queen beds. I love Happy Hour at Harpoon Henry's because they discount their fish and chips (mahi mahi) which are fabulous.

Kathy,Thank you and to your lovely family for staying in our condo. We enjoyed having you. Hope you are now back at home safely. Take care and God bless you.
Our 3 month stay turned into a 4 month stay as our home was undergoing repairs and renovations. The condo couldn’t have been better for us - the location is divine and I was even able to work from home with the built-in desk in one of the bedrooms. We spent many a happy evening and day on the patio with the fantastic view of the water. It was at least 20 degrees cooler in DP than at our home in MV, and my husband proclaimed this “the best summer of my life!” :-) I’m not sure he’ll move back to the suburbs with me after the renovations are done. The hosts were lovely and answered every question quickly and were most accommodating - thank you!
My wife & I stayed in this property for almost 3 months while our house was being finished. The location is fantastic! Right across the street from the Strand Beach parking lot with easy access to the beach, hiking trails, and the Lantern District. Super easy to get to. The sunsets are postcard worthy. The south side of the parking lot is a place where high schoolers and other young adults gather to have a good time. They are usually broken up by 10pm. It's actually rather funny to eavesdrop on them since they are not quiet. Oh, to be that age again!
The check-in/out processes were very easy and the instructions were crystal clear. The property owners were great and any questions were answered very quickly.
The only downside is that some items need updating. The living room furniture has seen its better days and the washer & dryer could use a refresh.
Overall, our stay was great and I will be keeping this property in mind for the future when family visit!
Glad you were in the area, decided to comeback and stay in our condo. Thank you.

Could use some updating. Furniture worn and kitchen needs glassware and silverware sets. Looks like they bring old stuff from home.

Hi Miriam. I appreciate the feed back but maybe you are mistaken this property iwith another condo you stayed. You just made a reservation for next year. For 2 months and never you brought this up to me. But that is ok you are welcome next year too.
Overall excellent stay, very nice condo, exactly as described, with all the basic necessities, directly across the street from Strands Beach Park, great neighborhood, beautiful sunsets, and close to most everything. We were very happy with our stay. Two things to note: there are 164 steps down to the beach, and there was a bit of noise from street and Strands Beach Park parking lot most evenings (but typically quieted down by 10pm).
We were here for 9 1/2 weeks this summer, and also same place for 10 weeks last summer, to escape the desert heat. Great rental unit and great location.

Perfect location
This condo is in a perfect location. It is across from the Strand Park leading down to the beach, near wonderful nature trails and close enough to walk to the Lantern District where one can enjoy a lovely lunch or pick up needed supplies. We spent many hours on the beach daily and in the evening we sat on the patio watching beautiful sunsets. The condo is very comfortable, well supplied and has large rooms. Dee, the owner, was very accessible when we needed any questions answered. We cannot thank her enough and look forward to visiting again.

Great rental
Was very nice for our 10 week escape from the desert.
The only complaint -- we are not fans of "DirecTV Now". Specifically, cannot surf for the routine channels, just too time consuming.
Otherwise very nice condo, in fantastic location.

This is our second time staying for a month at Dee Klaus' Condo. It is very close to Baby Beach, which we frequent EVERY day since we are Stand Up Paddlers (SUP). Dee's condo is always immaculate and everything necessary for a great stay. i called Dee once JUST to let her know the master toilet cycled at times and she responded immediately. Good restaurants are very close by as well as Costco. We will continue to return for the full month. Thank you, Dee.

Proximity to the ocean and the park was great. Dee was accommodating.
House is outdated. Flooring kitchen and bathrooms are renovated but the furniture is old and there is an old house smell in the house. At an oceanfront house one expects classy furniture. Ceilings are low.

Spoke with guest at leasr twice during the stay. Resolved a TV issue. Asked how is everything. The response was "great, enjoying the stay, no problems", I offered my assistance if any question or issues. Didn't hear anything back untill this review. I called the guest about the review and about our conversation. Said he will change the review. The furniture was changed 5 years ago and never had a complaint from past guests about this or any type of odor. We guarantee the cleaning and if guest not satisfied it will be done again. This unit is in the ground floor and has normal height ceiling. Again I never had a complaint before from any of my past guests. I do appreciate guest suggestions, and I will do my best, to resolve any issues under my control.

About the host
Hosted by Dee Kalaus
We are married with two boys both in college and one in the Army Reserve. I am in the Health care field and my husband is in the Education business. We both work for the State School District. We work hard but love what we do. We both love to travel, the beach is our favor. We enjoy hiking, walking, ride bikes, swimming, dancing, going to the gym. We also like to eat and try new foods. My husband loves to eat so we try to eat foods that taste good but have less calories. We love charing our condo with friends, guest that also love the beach,and family friendly neighborhood.
Why they chose this property
We decided to buy a beach condo in Dana Point so one day we move in the area in enjoy our retirement at the beach full time. Well, with the economy the way it is we decided to wait and keep using it in our time off and weekends alone or with our family.
What makes this property unique
We love our condo and that is why we have decided to share our condo with our friends and guests. The area is relaxing, the beach is one of the best in California. We walked to the Ritz Carlton for a snack or tea for two. It is nice to hear our guests and friends say how much they love the condo and the area as much as we do. We have several guest returning each year and they feel like part of the family.
