My family had a great time at the Monarch home. I loved all the details of it. It was cozy and very clean, kitchen was fully stocked with essentials. The space is perfect for a small family. Ann was a great host. She replied to my messages right away and made sure I was taken care of. It was extremely helpful that she labeled everything around the house. It's a very quiet neighborhood and we actually got to see a young deer in the back alley. My son was very excited to see it up close! It is conveniently located a few minutes away from the Monterey Bay Aquarium and downtown shopping area. I would highly recommend staying in the beautiful Monarch home.
