Quick and easy check in. Attractive lobby. Nicely decorated room. Deluxe King was roomy, clean, with a pectacular views of the boat harbor and Pacific Ocean. Balcony overlooks the oceanfront roadway; which can get a little noisy (motorcycles and motorists) on a busy weekend. Excellent walkable access to good restaurants, shops, bike rentals, breweries! Room pricing can be a little on the expensive side, however.

It was a pleasure staying at this property. The property itself is beautiful. We had a room overlooking the bay which was gorgeous. The property is close to a walking trail along the water and a choice of delicious restaurants. Special shout out to Barabara's Fish Shack. It was a great stay and we would stay at Oceano again!

The Oceano is truly a hidden gem so close to San Francisco but a world away from the hustle and bustle of the city. We enjoyed the relaxing vibe in the town of Half Moon Bay, the people were so friendly. Our room was perfect! The lobby is beautiful, the ocean view is breathtaking! Definitely will plan to visit again!

Beautiful hotel with a nice view. We came to check in after lunch and the room was ready. Check in was fast and easy. The room was amazing and I loved how the sitting area was separate from the sleeping area. Only thing I would improve is that since it was kind of raining on and off the balcony ended up having a puddle outside. I wish they had a broom outside so we could push the water off the balcony.

Oceano is a hidden gem in HMB with nice comfortable rooms, great views and a friendly staff. Plenty of quality restaurants in the area including a brewery. We happen to be there during a small arts festival which was literally around the corner and was a lot of fun! Great place for couples looking for a weekend get-away!

Great hotel room, great staff. Hotel is right across from a dock. There was a boat honking its horn in 15 second intervals the whole day and night. Made it feel less like a resort in my opinion. Though it should’ve been more quiet it was a great stay and I would go back.

Cozy getaway
We loved our stay at the Oceano so much we extended our stay an additional night. The staff were all very pleasant and facilities were clean. The room was spacious and the couch area overlooking the bay with the fireplace was fanastic. The location is a quick drive away from everything you need and not too fussy of a drive into the city if you want to explore SF.

Our stay could not have been better. We arrived early and requested an early check-in, we were told no problem. The staff could not have been more accommodating or more pleasant. The restaurant/lounge was comfortable and the staff very accommodating and friendly We could not have asked for anything more. I will definitely return and recommend this hotel to others
