I really loved the way they received you when you get there. They give you apple cider in little cute glasses. Making you feel very special. Then when you leave they don't even care. On another places at least they ask you how was your stay. Here they just ignored you. They gave us 2 aluminum water bottles with their name on them. They were pretty but a little bent. The beds smelled clean and the mattresses felt comfortable. You could not jump in them but they were comfy. The bathroom and the shower were very clean and ample. We had have very hard time with the coffee machine. It was not very easy to use. They had couple of coffee pods and they were good. When we finally learn how to used it. We asked for a room with a view and our view was from the side not in front of the beach. It was still a good view just not how we imagined. The hotel it's very close to the beach. We went to the pool and it's at roof top one. It had a nice view to the ocean. We took a very nice sunset picture from there. They had the big pool and some jacuzzis. There was some guest there. It was nice it was not over crowded. At night we were going around to the next door hotel that happened to partners. They had a big bar and music. It was very nice and plenty of people having a good time. Sadly we couldn't stay because we had minors with us. I would comeback and stay here again. It was a pleasant stay. I just felt ignored when we left. Forgot to mention we found an empty used drink can in the fridge and used note pad. Details that make a difference. It makes you think they ate it very thorough when cleaning.

Long story short, book it. You found the absolute gems of Oceanside... the rental and the hosts…read more Whether you are looking for the perfect place to relax and rest your head between adventures and excursions, somewhere to work remotely in peace, or want a retreat to just rest and call home for a few days, look no further. It is clear through their property and their communication that Lauren and Hope are attentive angels who truly care about giving guests a wonderful experience. Cleanliness & Comfort: The condo is spotless. It is a simple space where the details of care are everywhere around you... seating on the balcony, a brita pitcher of cold water in the fridge, sheets that are so clean and white that they look brand new, all the information you need clearly posted on the fridge, ample dishware/utensils (including all the fixins for coffee), and as someone who suffers from chronic back pain, I was definitely pleasantly surprised with the mattress. Location: Heaven and haven. This property is a sanctuary. The calmness brought on by overlooking the ocean and passersby on The Strand, while you listen to the sound of waves crashing, makes you not want to ever leave the balcony. If you can find it in you to part ways from the villa, you are in extremely close proximity (WELL within walking distance) to the small-owned restaurants and businesses of Oceanside, as well as just a few paces from a sandy part of the beach and a grassy park. I could not dream of a better "best of all worlds." Communication: Unmatched. Never have I EVER encountered such a level of thorough, prompt, kind, and informative communication from a host. They even reached out when the condo was clean ahead of check-in time, so I could let myself in early. Lauren and Hope are unbelievably accommodating and responsive, and I cannot begin to fully express my gratitude for them. I want to note that they also manage The Brick Hotel, so I am SURE it is incredible down to every last detail. The visitors of Oceanside are lucky to have these women in the hospitality industry, that is for sure. *Ironically enough, I saw the Brick Hotel first... when I saw that they have a gorgeous rooftop bar and offer free yoga there in the mornings, I knew immediately where I wanted to stay. Unfortunately, they were fully booked. Turns out that my disappointment led me to finding utopia in a villa rental overlooking the ocean. The peace, solitude, and comfort is unmatched

The rooms were spacious and comfortable, the AC was at the perfect level all weekend, the price was very reasonable, and all of the bars were so fun!

Mission Pacific is genuinely one of the most beautiful beachfront properties I've stayed at. The…read morelocation is unmatched. Having access to both Mission Pacific and The Seabird across the street made the experience feel even more expansive and luxurious. The property itself is gorgeous and the aesthetic is immaculate. However, the service during our stay fell significantly short of what a property of this caliber should deliver. I traveled with a 4-month-old infant and requested a pack & play multiple times over three weeks and it wasn't in my room upon arrival despite repeated confirmations. The front desk was consistently unreachable by phone throughout our stay, which made accessing the resort fee amenities we paid for nearly impossible. I genuinely believe this may have been a staffing issue specific to our visit rather than a reflection of the property's standard. I would absolutely return, the location and property alone make it worth it. I just hope the service matches the beauty of the space next time.

I really wanted to like this resort! I did my research and chose this for a solo trip next to the…read morebeach. But the check in experience left such a horrible taste in my mouth. I won't be coming back. When solo women travelers are paying close to $500 a night to stay at an ocean front room, the staff should be trained to treat guest at check in better. As a brown Asian woman, I was shocked at how rude the front office staff (Eric) was to me. It was 103F here the weekend I arrived and even asking for a bottle of water while I waited for the room was asking for too much. I got eye rolls for even requesting water. I did see them be friendly to all the other blonde Caucasian customers and that is just not done! I think I didn't fit the profile of someone who would be staying here and that was how I was treated! Completely disgusting in 2026 Anyway, here are some positives about my 4 day solo trip to Oceanside at this resort: 1. Valet was extremely friendly and nice, worth it totally for me. 2. Ocean view king room was great! I loved the bed and the room. Housekeeping never disappointed. 3. Rooftop bar and swimming pool has good staff. Pool is small and is mostly for lounging which worked out great for me. If you are looking to do laps, you should use the pool at the seabird which is allowed with your stay here. 4. Location is great! I never used my car for the 4 days as I walked everywhere. Lots of places to eat, beach is across the street and it is dog friendly, which is always a nice thing!

The accommodations were perfect. We hosted the rehearsal dinner and welcome party in the courtyard. It was fabulous, right on the ocean, with the breeze the sound of the waves crashing, the beach. And it's close to restaurants, bars, shops. Plus they provide parking in an area where parking can be scarce. The Marbella is everything you need for a stress free getaway. We highly recommend it for events. It saved us time, money and was the setting for many spontaneous and lovely connections and experiences. Trevor, the property manager and the cleaning staff were wonderful.

I have a few issues with this place. The biggest one, being that they charge just a hefty cleaning fee of $115. I feel like they are trying to be an air bnb and I get that but tell me why they tell you to wash your dishes and take out the trash when you check out?? So they charge $115 to change the sheets then? I truly don't understand. Seems like a lot to charge when they ask you to clean up after yourself. Another issue I had staying in room 207 the last couple of days is how tiny the bathroom was in this room. There was also no closet to hang clothes. Just a small closet space, but no hangers or anywhere to hang clothes. The Marbella is still one of my favorite spots to stay because of the location being so close to the water as well as shops and some of the best restaurants to eat at.

Customer service from Betty during check-in and check-out was awful. As a Soldier coming to Camp…read morePendleton for training, it was disappointing to have that experience. The constant questioning during both check-in and check-out made no sense and made the process more difficult than it needed to be. Management definitely needs to work with her on her customer service skills. Overall, though, the stay was good. The rooms were really nice, clean, and comfortable. They were having a Wi-Fi issue, but it appeared they were working to fix it. There was also a nice small gym, as well as a great outside patio and pool area to relax and chill. Having a restaurant conveniently located in the hotel parking lot was another plus. Overall, despite the poor customer service at the front desk, it was a good stay.

We had an unfortunate event happen to our home so we were temporarily housed here. Our stay was…read moreabout 7-8 days so it's a pretty fair account of our experience. I'll list pros and cons. Pros: 1.located between 78 and 76 freeways and easy to get to most shopping areas. 2. Employee named, Victor, was very kind to bring to our room fresh sheets and extra towels when we requested He was friendly and courteous. 3. Generally speaking, front desk staff was kind. 4. Change was always available for the laundry. 5. Amenities: Pool and Jacuzzi. Fire pit, BBQ grill. Gym, laundry room. Tiny mini mart with alcohol and junk food for last minute grabs. 6. Continental breakfast everyday. As vegans, we enjoyed cereal (varies), oats (cooked in water) with a variety of toppings (brown sugar, nuts, coconut flakes, raisins, etc), potatoes, bagels, fresh fruit (usually bananas), orange juice, and coffee. Oat milk was available upon request (we knew to ask for it because the lady who checked us in said it was available). 7. Rooms had a kitchenette which included: electric mini stove with 2 burners (no oven), full size fridge, microwave, stove, single cup coffee pot, full size dishwasher. Also included pans, colander, mugs, cups, wine glasses, utensils, knives, cutting board, wine/bottle opener, bowls, plates, large cooking utensils, dish towels, dish soap, paper towels, and dishwasher pods. Cons: 1. Although I've always been excited for salsa nights,, the Junkyard Restaurant in the same shopping center was pretty rowdy on a Tuesday night and you could totally hear and feel the music, even over our sound machines. 2. The sofa bed sheets had not been changed since their last guest.l when we checked in. 3. I always had to request extra towels from the lobby because when we chose to have our room serviced, they took all the towels and did not replace the same number of towels. 4. The pans were scratched up badly. No way it's safe to cook in those pans unless you're wanting to eat Teflon and other leaching chemicals. 5. When I had questions about the waffles containing dairy or egg, the tall white man replied rudely. If I recall correctly he said, "of course it does, why wouldn't it.?!" His tone and manner of speaking took me by surprise since he appeared to be management. Another employee had said it was vegan but because I know better being vegan, I needed to confirm. My husband also asked him if they had a particular cereal my daughter had the previous day and he was also rude to my husband. This was on 2 separate days so it's fair to say this guy has a bad attitude and no empathy for others. This probably irked me the most out of my hotel experience. 6. Another guest before us stuck the wrong detergent in the washer and caused the foam to bubble out of the machine on our load. 7. No vegan options other than alcohol in the mini mart in the hotel. It would have been nice to have a few things without dairy, 8. Table was only big enough for 2. We had our kids eat at the desk. 9. Carpet is dirty- as in your feet and socks are black/brown after walking on the carpet. 10. Only no add Netflix accounts can take advantage of signing in to the Netflix account on the smart TV. Overall, I would probably stay here if I had to, but probably wouldn't be my first choice.

This one has a trundle sofa bed but smaller bathroom but at least there's a mirror outside. It's near the ocean and within walking distance to a lot of shops and food plus a connecting restaurant. There's also a convenient mini mart inside the hotel. Lobby is ample and great breakfast selection.

They do have some nice amenities such as a 6th floor rooftop pool and jacuzzi (towels are provided on the roof) with a game room attached to it. They offer free breakfast in the mornings. I think it stops at 10 AM. Some of the breakfast items they had were cereals and milk, different juices, coffees/teas, scrambled eggs, bacon, breakfast potatoes, yogurts, oatmeal, bagels/ toast, make your own waffle bar, hard-boiled eggs, bananas, etc. They charge $40 per night for underground parking. They have a little general store next to the lobby where you can buy things like sunscreen, sunglasses food, wine, beer, etc.; it's convenient to have that in the hotel. They also have packages where if you can rent beach items such as chairs, umbrellas, etc. so you don't have to bring your own or buy them. I think the package family of 4 was $75 if I remember correctly. The hotel room was very nice and clean and the air-conditioning was working perfectly. I would definitely stay here again, but I would not pay the extra charge for the balcony room which we had. I thought maybe there would be chairs on the balcony but there weren't any and there was only one chair in our room, so it didn't make sense for the two of us to go out onto the balcony and there wasn't much people watching to do facing Myers Street (it may be different looking out onto Mission Avenue). Our room was a suite and had a small refrigerator, microwave, and safe in the room. Our room phone didn't work so we couldn't reach the front desk when our curtains wouldn't close. Since we were on the third floor, our room was near the second floor outdoor roof bar area. We could hear the band playing and people talking. We got back to the hotel at 10 PM and the band was done so I know they don't play past 10 PM, but if you want a quiet stay then do not get a room near the 2nd floor bar area. This is my 2nd time staying here and I would definitely come back again. The only things that need to improve are the speed of the 2 elevators. They are ancient and crawl up and down and are always packed full of people and the underground parking area smells like crap.
