Monarch Beach Golf Links

Course in poor condition. Marshall was useless in helping pace of play or those hitting into us (due to pace of play). Not a $200/ round golf course.

Awesome course! Great view and beautiful amenities and friendly staff! Would definitely recommend it as a must play course! Bravo!

With a 11 handicap I tied my record of 3 birdies in a round. I played a month after the greens had been reseeded and they are perfect! The greens are rolling true. Fairways are like vacuumed carpet. Beautiful ocean views, especially on the signature hole #3. The staff is attentive to all my requests and very kind. Get the crab cakes on turn.

Fantastic golf course and scene. The people are wonderful.

This course had some beautiful views. Holes 3 & 4 were phenomenal. The GPS on the Golf carts were annoying. Way too many advertisements not much information about the course layout or distance on each shot. First time playing MB. Staff was friendly. Food was really good. Snack shack is after the 5th hole which was different. Overall experience was good.

This course is a bucket lister for sure. The layout and location are exceptional, with ocean views from the clubhouse and on holes 3 and 4.

The staff is the best in the business from valet and carts guys to the starters, especially Frank and Tony who take customer service to new heights.

The course is challenging, yet fair.

Great job all around and five stars for sure!!!

Monarch Beach is a great course that is a fun play with excellent views. Eric Lohman the PGA Pro does a great job with this course. I highly recommend playing this fantastic OC Course.

We had a great day! The weather was perfect, the course was in supreme shape, green rolled amazingly well, and the food and amenities and the staff were also incredible. There are tricky holes, tricky greens, and challenging shots and fun holes and even two holes right on the ocean! The 18th hole is a perfect way to finish all bets with a nervy shot over water! Then the warm towels and home cookies are waiting for you! My group loved it.

They seem to be finally putting some serious money into upgrading the course, the greens were the best I have seen them and the bunkers are much better than they have been. The fairways are improving but the tees need work. The staff is great especially Frank in the Pro shop. Always friendly, always professional and welcoming.....

Excellent, outstanding and magnificent are just a few words that come to mind. The views were stunning. The course is in great shape and manicured beautifully. The sand traps were perfect, the green speeds were just right and the fairways were very nice. The only thing that was less than perfect was the practice area, but because of the location you have to give it a pass. Who could blame them for not using more of that property for a driving range. I saved the best for last. The staff was absolutely unbelievable. From the moment you pull up to valet to the moment you're loaded up and on the way out its 100% perfect. They even cleaned my golf shoes and put them In a plastic bag. I'll be back.

All in all it was great course, very challenging and very well laid out. Ocean views, mansions and beautiful Scenery wherever you looked. The staff was exceptional and it seemed the refreshment cart was always available when needed.

This round will definitely never be forgotten and I can’t wait to go back! Staff were all amazing but the one that stood out was Frank at the pro shop! Absolutely the best customer service I’ve ever had at any Course in my 12+ yrs golfing!! Great views! Great challenging layouts...greens were always different and you had to have well placed shots into greens to even have a chance to two putt!!...from the moment I stepped on hole 18 tee box...I was overwhelmed with sadness because I wanted to do it all over again! I live about 1 hour 30 mins away ...and I will definitely plan to go back a few times a year! Keep up the great work Monarch and thank you for the experience.

Very impressed with the golf staff. Everyone was super friendly and professional. I would recommend this course to anyone.

This course under great conditions would be a 5 star club. But, they just airafied all the greens and not the best for putting. Also they had a outting of 50 players in a scramble that took close to 5 hours to play. I like to use golf now but you can't ask if you punch greens or if there is a outting going on when you sign up!

I found out that Monarch most of the time has an am

9 Hole rate off the back nine for a special price. Only $49.00. This amazing because of how nice it is. We get to play the back nine before the days maintenance team goes through. Even with that the greens are still firm and fast and the course plays great, albeit it was a little chilly. We also got Gokfboards for $9 and breakfast for $9. Eric J. in the shop was very nice as well. I will be back and am looking at doing the 6 month pass as well.

I played Monarch yesterday (3/2) when it looked like the rain was going to hold off until sunset. I had not been out to Monarch in a while and was quickly reminded of why I love it. It has a great “OC” vibe and the friendliest staff around (Arroyo Trabuco is a close 2nd!). Eric and Frank in the golf shop couldn’t have been more helpful. The beverage cart girls even went above and beyond for my group! Though the rain scaring golfers away had something to do with it my foursome was able to finish in just under 4 hours teeing it at 1:30 and finishing just before the sunset and the rain. The rain will help the conditions which were still good considering the winter season and lack of precipitation. The greens were phenomenal and lightning fast which is rare in Orange County. Highlight of the day, as is the norm out there, was playing number 3 and 4 out on the beach in the afternoon sun. Looking forward to getting back out there next Friday afternoon

Monarch has a great course in superb condition with a cool breeze and ocean views it is a great setting!! Renee in the pro shop was very helpful to select some souvenirs for the family. Check in is easy and valet guys are quick and friendly. Treat yourself to a round here!!

Great greens that roll true.

The course starts you out with a very short par 4 that puts in a birdie frame of mind.

Fabulous views of the Pacific ocean from many holes.

Hole # 3 is very short par 4 and right next to the surf at Salt Creek beach.

Renee in the pro shop knows the latest golf fashions! I just bought very cool reversible belt that she picked out.
