    Breakfast offerings, especially the coffee. More reasonable valet parking would be nice.

    Atmosphere, staff, location, spacious room. Attention to detail. Comfortable bedding.

    The hotel as unique as the sunsets over the ocean from its windows and terrace.

    The restaurant is a bit overpriced and was often empty apart from breakfast and lunch. Nevertheless, the food was very good.

    An excellent and exceptionally comfortable hotel in Santa Monica. You live next to the park, right by the ocean in a very quiet part of the city, and at the same time close to the pier, restaurants and cafés. The rooms are spacious fresh and very cleanIn. In our opinion, the best hotel in Santa Monica. The staff is very polite and professional. We hope to return here again.

    The only thing I would of liked would have been more access to ice. An ice machine available to guest would have been great. I had to call room service everytime I needed more ice, lol! Other than that, I love this hotel.

    I really loved the furnishings in the room. Everything was so clean and beautiful. The ocean was right across the street which gave the hotel such a beautiful setting which complimented the ambiance.

    It was quite noisy at night. It’s a small hotel with rooms facing each other. There were parties every night I was there but I could only hear it in the living room. Couldn’t hear it in the bedroom. The bedroom though was facing the road and the windows weren’t sound proof.

    The most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept on. location was spot on. just across the road and a bridge from the beach. There is a wonderful view from the terrace . Food was lovely but the staff were exceptional and couldn’t do enough for you.

    Left my phone charger on the outlet by the night stand when we checked out. When I went back to the room to retrieve it. It was nowhere to be found. Good thing it was only a phone charger so did not make a big fuss out of it. But what if it was a valuable item? Scary.

    All the other staff from the front desk, to the concierge were very courteous and helpful. Over all had a wonderful stay.

    This Santa Monica gem was everything we hoped for on our long weekend girls trip. Our suite was amazing and immaculately clean. The entire staff were so kind and attentive despite the added stress of their job during COVID. Enjoyed the little extras the hotel offered including morning outdoor yoga and bikes. The location was also perfect: quiet and right across from a beach access point. It’s not cheap, but it’s definitely worth every penny! Hope to return again!

    Very expensive, but it's probably worth it - have not seen analogues in Santa Monica. Even Casa del Mar cannot compare with this hotel.

    Large rooms, everything is clean and new. The pool is warm and amazing. The staff is super helpful. Food is very good as well.

    From the moment we checked in to the Oceana, we felt welcomed and relaxed. We especially enjoyed the huge room and beautiful atmosphere. We spent a lot of time at the pool, which was really lovely. Big thanks to Lenny and Jessica for being so warm and helpful!!! We felt so at home that it was hard to leave.
