About Monarch Beach Golf Links

They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
The grand and splendid entrance, the valet's warm greeting, the well-maintained fairway and green, the beautiful ocean view - especially the view from the 3rd hole -, the detailed facility usage instructions and warm words from the person in charge at the starting point were great, and the sunset in the afternoon was really beautiful. The pride of the local resident members in their golf course was also impressive.
About a two-hour drive from LA, this resort golf course is part of a beautiful resort setting. Along the way, you might see joggers passing by, and on several holes you tee off and hit your second shot with the ocean in view. One short left dogleg par 4, where you have to keep your tee shot under 200 yards, remains one of the most memorable holes in my mind.
Beautiful and challenging golf course. The staffs were awesome from pro shop valet to first tee. The only downside is that there wasn't any driving range but other than that, everything was perfect. I'm surprised that the course condition was much better than trump national, which is way $$$. I'll definitely come back
The course had a great view, especially the ocean views on the first nine holes. However, the younger, tall, and skinny guy in the pro shop was very rude and disrespectful. He found out we had booked for nine holes and insisted that we only play nine. He warned us that we could be kicked out if we played more. I’m not sure where this kind of discrimination is coming from, maybe race? Before we started, I heard him using his headset to ask another guy to keep an eye on us. He did so during our play, and the guy showed up multiple times to ask us to make sure we only played nine holes. I don’t understand why he would do this. I know some people play more than nine holes, but how can you assume that? On the other hand, the other older guy in the pro shop was very nice.
I’ve played all across the country in Monarch Beach has to be close to the top of the list. The facilities were immaculate. The staff was incredible from the pro shop manager, helping me find my size of shirt to the bag staff getting us set up on our carts. The service was amazing. The golf course itself was pristine and offered both challenges and opportunities to score. The back nine was so pretty and fun to play on the ocean. I highly recommend this and if I’m back in Southern California, I will definitely be back to play Monarch again!
