Description of Hotel Oceana
Just one hour north of Los Angeles, in the sunny mission city of Santa Barbara, sits a beachside resort surrounded by lush, sprawling grounds. Beautiful beach rooms house vast ocean views that are apt to turn a good mood downright giddy. So be you rest-seeker, business traveler or a little of both, we offer you a place to lean back and kick up your feet. Barefoot, or otherwise. Soothing, summer colors are sprinkled throughout the property to instill the warm, breezy feeling that can only come from being by the shore. Bathrooms are light and shiny and every luxurious bed is clad in crisp, Italian linens ensuring a truly vacation-worthy night of slumber. We also have a state-of-the-art fitness center overlooking the ocean which you can frequent, put off or ignore all together! For a true dose of rest and relaxation, we invite you to partake in a facial or massage in our cozy spa. Our comfortable ocean-view meeting facilities can make your stay at the beach a great success, too! Just one hour north of Los Angeles in the city of Santa Barbara read more

The "perfect location across from the ocean" and "close to shops and restaurants" may be this "old-world", "Spanish-style" indie's strongest attribute, although the "beautiful grounds" and "warm, friendly front-desk service" also draw notice; comments are mixed about the rooms, which some find "quaint" and "romantic" and others decry as "old and musty" with "dirty carpets" and "1980s decor"; P.S. the lack of "adequate parking" irks drivers.

Right across from the ocean, and a charming appearance.
Parking is not conveniently located.

We were pleasantly surprised with the quality and charm of this hotel. Would love to go back when we could stay longer. Very friendly and helpful staff. Perfect location. We were very pleased!

Staff was awesome, great location, and a free breakfast!
Room was on the street and there was noise all night
and no
AC so had to keep window open.

Rooms are nice, grounds are very pretty and well-maintained. The staff is awesome!

Location-- right on the beach -- and free breakfast, too.

Given small room/solo bed, requiring on spot upgrade that made stay more expensive.

Great location, right on the beach, with complimentary bicycles for load and continental breakfast was nice. One small bed facing the street (noisy) -- we needed separate beds and that meant we had to pay more on the spot. And parking was also a surprise extra.

Location.
No air condition and no ice machine.

It was 85 degrees when we arrived to find out that there was no air condition in the rooms. I called for ice and was told that there was no ice machine, but they would bring up a bucket. No one came in 20 minutes so I called again and in about 30 minutes someone came with ice. It took almost an hour to get a bucket of ice to have a drink in a sweltering hot room. I thought the room was very overpriced for the amenities and would not go back. Front desk staff was very friendly. Rooms were very small. Very disappointing. read more

Unfortunately it was raining - but the views on the beach were nice and the landscaping of the hotel gave it a nice comfortable feel.
