  Monarch Beach Golf Links is one of the most spectacular golf settings in all of Southern California — a true links-style course perched on the coastal bluffs above Dana Point with sweeping Pacific Ocean views on virtually every hole. The course wraps along the cliffs with that signature links aesthetic: firm fairways, sea breezes that demand creative shot-making, and an atmosphere that feels more like Scotland than South OC. As a real estate broker covering the Dana Point and South Laguna corridor, I've played Monarch Beach many times and have brought clients here as part of introducing them to the area's lifestyle. The combination of world-class golf and those ocean views is genuinely hard to beat anywhere in California. The Monarch Beach Resort connection adds to the overall experience, with excellent amenities and service throughout. The course presents a genuine challenge without being punishing — you can enjoy it at any skill level while still feeling the satisfaction of conquering the coastal winds. For anyone considering a move to Dana Point, Salt Creek, or the surrounding communities, a round here offers the perfect preview of the OC coastal lifestyle.

  We gave Monarch Beach Golf another try after last year when we had issues with the person working the starter group . Luckily he was not there this time . My nephew and I were greeted in the lobby check in and the guy working there was super nice friendly and had common knowledge in things we liked as well. Very family friendly. Then we proceeded to the starter captain and he was so perfect , helpful , nice and kind hearted . We were all happy to see this guy working the starter location. Thankyou for making these locals who live near the course want to come back again because of you and the guy working the check in on April 7 5pm. Whoever manages these guys please keep them on your payroll they are good for business. As far as the course it’s always 5 star for us and no one rushed us , very peaceful , Weather was perfect . Again thankyou to management who hired those 2 men that we associated with

  There are one or two gems but the rest is a flat and standard layout.

  Cool course. Overpriced for the condition it’s in.
