Designed by renowned residential designers Chris Barrett and Associates, in conjunction with local architectural firm KAA Design Group, The Oceana provides a superior level of luxury, while retaining the hotel’s warmth and integrity. For the exquisite exterior details, The Oceana turned to Landworth DeBolske Associates, who incorporated stone, burnished metals and an array of plush whimsical fabrics for an inviting feel and contemporary quality.
Dining at the Oceana
When it comes to dining at The Oceana, patrons can experience exquisite offerings either in the privacy of their own room or at the Ocean Lounge, which is surrounded by plush couches, cozy wicker chairs and intimate tables. Overseen by famed Restaurateur and Hotelier Jonathan Morr of New York City’s Bond Street and executed by Chef Sonia El-Nawal, diners will be treated to mouthwatering meals made from decadent ingredients, accompanied by an international wine list.
Offering breakfast, lunch and dinner, The Ocean Lounge is a casual indoor sunroom that overlooks the Santa Monica Bay. Guests can start their day off with a fresh herb omelette, eggs benedict, a breakfast burrito or the always tempting buttermilk pancakes. After a day of enjoying all that the Oceana has to offer, The Ocean Lounge provides an assortment of soups and salads, pizzas, sandwiches, burgers, pastas, organic chicken, Maine lobster, prime sirloin strip steak and pan roasted salmon. To round things out, guests will be tempted by the chocolate fudge brownie, crème brulèe, banana spilt, and homemade cheesecake.
If you’re ready to get away from it all, without leaving SoCal, head to the beach and indulge in the Oceana Santa Monica.
