Concierge "Snuck in among the posh apartment buildings on the north end of Santa Monica's beachfront boulevard, the revamped Oceana looks and feels more like a home."

DK Eyewitness "One of Santa Monica’s prettiest hotels, the Oceana has flirtatiously colorful decor reminiscent of the French Riviera. Many of the large suites have views of the ocean."

Gayot "A fresh, bright, airy and comfortable alternative to the massive, and generally impersonal corporate hotels, the Oceana is across the street from the bluffs overlooking Santa Monica beach."
BlackBook "Just steps from the beach and the 3rd Street Promenade. All suites—and really very sweet on service and private beauty."
