We had an unobstructed view of the ocean and the service was excellent. The continental breakfast was delicious and timely! Our room was beautifully decorated. The property is in need of repair, but the staff lovingly took care of any needs we had due to a couple of facility issues.

We love the Monarch Cove inn and have stayed here when we visit Santa Cruz for several years. We were sad to learn Summer had left her position at the Monarch Cove inn. She will be missed. Her replacement Katrina was very welcoming and provided us with great customer service upon our arrival.

My husband and I loved our stay at The Monarch Cove Inn. Now this is an almost 100 year old victorian house on the coast. You don't stay in a place like this and compare it to the 4 Seasons. It has the antique, worn in quality you would want in a place like this. The beds were comfortable, the staff was just wonderful, the views and grounds were lovely and inviting. We can't wait for our next visit!

We liked everything about this well maintained historic property. We parked the car and hiked all over Capitola dining downtown for lunch and walking over to Shadowbrook for dinner. Next time we will hike along a trail next to the property to a nearby beach.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Monarch Cove Inn! The room was cozy, clean, and comfortable! We even had our own private patio! The grounds are beautiful (probably even more so when it’s not cloudy and raining!). It is close to downtown Capitola, just a 1/2mile walk or so. They also have such friendly and welcoming staff! Katrina was so sweet and accommodating, it was like staying with family! Also, we have never been served breakfast in our room before! That was so cool. Fresh fruit, coffee, juice, and pastries from a local bakery!! It was delicious. We would recommend this bed and breakfast to anyone looking to get away for a perfect weekend (or longer!)
