“Quiet and secluded”

Reviewed 26 February 2013

As others have pointed out already, this is in a quiet place and on a quiet beach. After landing to Cebu and quite an interesting bus ride we made our way to the hotel (with the transport provided) and it was simply amazing to arrive. Staff was extremely friendly, meals were amazing (try the pancakes with mango) and tours were... More

“Blissful seclusion”

Reviewed 1 September 2012

No mobile phone connection, hardly good internet connection... Monarch Sands reminded me and my sisters how being unplugged really feels. And, it really felt bloody fantastic. The good and the bad: 1. We opted to take the city tour offered. This one, I will NOT recommend anyone to take. Dumaguete City has nothing in it, frankly, and the tour's fee... More

“Isolated. Over-priced resort”

Reviewed 3 June 2012

I will never recomend this place. Over-priced. Overrated. Website was deceiving, there was no white sands, paradise etc.. Monarch Sands is simply TERRIBLE. Beware of the transportation costs to and from the resort. Based on their website, the resort lies south of Dumaguete City. They didn't mentioned that it was located close to hell - very far from the city... More

Thank You for staying and writing a review. We are are a little baffled that you did not find it to your liking,. As during the same day we received a raving review fro a guest who stayed in the cottage next to you. Titled "We Loved It". 5 stars! While it is true the meals may take awhile to... More

“Great 3 days away from the kids, next time we'll bring the kids!”

Reviewed 2 April 2012

Short and to the point: Jen (my wife) and I wanted some "couple" time, away from work, the city and our 3 great kids. Looking for a private beach resort (with diving as an option) no more than a 60 minute flight from Manila, we found Monarch Sands online. With 4.5 out of 5 ranking on TripAdvisor at rates below...

I will try to keep it short & sweet : location - nicely isolated & quite; food - very tasty for both Asian & Western cuisine with good portions; service - they do their best e.g. they prepared my breakfast craving even if it wasn't on the menu, accomodated our diving requests, gave us a nice quick tour of downtown...

“I don't want to say anything”

Reviewed 19 January 2012

Frankly, if I tell everyone how much we truly love this place, the great accommodation, the faultless service, the great food, and the simply outrageous sunsets, they'll all come and we won't be able to go back to Monarch ourselves, ever again. So I won't mention how much this place totally relaxes you, unwinds the knots and clears out your... More
