Why We Love This Deal

The 5-star Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach Resort and Club is regularly heralded as one of the best resorts in California. And Travelzoo members agree, giving it a 98% approval rating. "Perfect [from] A–Z," says one member. "The staff went above and beyond to make guests feel welcome," raves another.

This iconic brand is synonymous with luxury and high-end service, which typically comes with a hefty price tag. But with this Travelzoo-exclusive offer, you can stay 2 nights or longer in August for $499 per night. We've worked out a deal that lets members skip the nightly $63 resort fee. We were also able to score reduced valet parking fees. In total, you're looking at 50% in savings.

What's Included

  • Stay 2 nights, Sundays–Thursdays from Aug. 2–20
  • $998 (reg. $1978) ... in a Deluxe Resort View King or Two Queen Room—these accommodations feature a private terrace and spacious marble bathrooms with double-sink vanities, walk-in showers and bathtubs
  • Add additional nights for $499 per night
  • Prices are per room (not per person)
  • Additional member perks:
    • Waived resort fee (reg. $63 plus tax, per night); the fee covers a host of amenities

"This property is incredible! It was amazing to have everything on property and no reason to leave. The beach was a 5 minute tram ride to/from, the main pool was heated, there are three jacuzzis and the food at all restaurants was amazing!! I cannot wait to be able to return."

Family friendly hotel. Staff were very welcoming and even gave my son a stuffed teddy bear. The only problem I had was our shower drain. I had to follow up 3 times to have engineering come check. Other than that, would definitely recommend.

Service was excellent, they knew our names by the second day. Pool, spin class, sunset sips, and the private Monarch Beach Club all provided great experiences and memories for our family. Room was very clean, and wonderful.
