This place is a gem in Capitola. Breathtaking surroundings, beautiful garden, great ocean view, peace and quiet. Our appartment, The Rose Garden View, was very cosy with old fashion but cofortable victorian furnitures. The house is over 100 years old so don’t expect everything to look like or work like it was made yesterday. The staff is extremely friendly and the breakfast that you get served to your door is delicious. It’s the second time we’ve stayed at Monarch Cove, now for 3 nights, and we’ll be back.
