My partner and I stayed at the Monaco for a week for my birthday ( March-April) It was just as described on trip advisor . The apartments were modern, beds and pillows were a dream to sleep on , it had everything you needed for a week ( or longer ) stay . Fully equipped kitchen for cooking and laundry , the views were breathtaking with a huge balcony's to sit and enjoy your meals and the stunning views over the beach or city of Caloundra . Nice cafe at the bottom of the resort that serves a great breakfast and good coffee and cakes ( entry from the hotel foyer 😉) also great amenities ( games room,library, lounge,spa,pool and sauna ) The staff were lovely , very professional and helpful , booking, check in and out were easy . The Monaco is central to everything from cafes, restaurants, banks , pubs , the beach , and the markets which they have on Friday nights on the beach out front and Bullock street Markets on a Sunday ( there is also an entry door from the Monaco straight out to bullock street ) must visit the markets, heaps of great food vans, gifts and live music . I will definitely be planning my next vacation with the MONACO it' really exceeded my expectations , Thank you guys for a wonderful and relaxing birthday , well worth the money , can't wait to return -thanks again Sharon and Vic
