"Don’t let the grandiose water fountains at the entrance deter you. The Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach is casual luxury at its best, where relaxation and fun pair up whether it be chilling at the pool in a cabana, hitting the golf links in front of the resort, or sharing dinner with friends around the fire pit at the beach club. This is the ultimate refined family-friendly getaway, with enough options to keep kids entertained and plenty of amenities to make traveling families comfortable, but without being too “kiddie” centric." - CNT Editors
