You’ve arrived. Single-level, penthouse-style living at The Grand Monarch, set within the grounds of Waldorf Astoria’s Monarch Beach Resort. Nearly 4,000 square feet of impeccably appointed interiors, paired with an expansive ocean-view balcony, creates a spacious, year-round retreat that lives like a private residence with the backdrop of a five-star resort. A private two-car garage and dedicated elevator access deliver everyday comfort and convenience, while the gated community offers true lock-and-leave peace of mind. This is the ideal second home or refined low-maintenance primary residence, without compromising on scale, location, or luxury. Upon entry, an impressive foyer leads upstairs via staircase or private elevator, opening to a dramatic single-level layout designed for both grand entertaining and relaxed coastal living. Statement stonework, designer wall treatments, and curated accent lighting add depth and character throughout. The great room flows seamlessly to the ocean-view balcony, where sunset skies and cool coastal breezes become part of the daily rhythm. The kitchen is outfitted for the serious home chef, anchored by an oversized island with seating and a premier Sub-Zero and Wolf appliance suite, including a steam oven, built-in espresso system, and secondary wine refrigeration. A formal dining room is complemented by a striking, temperature-controlled wine display holding more than 200 bottles, ensuring the home remains a natural gathering place for intimate dinners and larger celebrations alike. The primary suite reflects the caliber of a world-class resort, offering generous proportions, a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub, ocean and sunset views, direct balcony access, and a substantial walk-in closet with adjacent laundry for thoughtful convenience. Three additional en-suite bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests, while a separate bonus room offers flexibility for an office, media space, or additional lounge. Life at The Grand Monarch includes direct access to the Waldorf Astoria’s pools, fitness center, championship golf, multiple dining venues, and beautifully maintained grounds with pathways leading toward the beach. Moments from Dana Point’s vibrant Lantern District and the revitalized harbor, and ideally positioned within an hour of Los Angeles, San Diego, and multiple major airports, this is coastal resort living at its most effortless and refined.
