My husband and I visited the resort this past weekend on a business trip. We are owners of Monarch Grand and was able to stay for 4 days. The ""suites"" were spacious, comfortable and very affordable.
The resort has a wonderful spa and amazing pool with a mini-pyramid cascading water into a large pool. I would enjoy coming back during early summer to try out the pool.
You feel like you are in Mexico - the hotel has a carribean feel and provide free shuttle buses to the strip (which is only 3 miles north of the resort). The resort is also very close to the Vegas airport - not a bad deal.
