This hotel was OK but I wouldn't stay there again. The rooms are pretty run down. Everyone I know raves about it but there are nicer ones down the street (see my other reviews). The hotel was old and the resturant was overpriced. If I wasn't on the government rate it would have been a total rip off. However, it's... more

Recently stay over the Labor day weekend on points. Did not expect nor did I get an upgrade from my "no view" room. However, I did expect but did not get "My Way" amenities as a Gold member - despite my reminder. The front desk seemed surprised that I even asked. The Good: The hotel is on a great beach... more

Less than an hour from LA's hustle lays this hidden gem. We have been coming from Bakersfied, Ca (less than a 2 hr drive) to the Mandalay Beach Resort since 1989, as it is our favorite beachfront resort in California. With its Mission architectural style, beautiful grounds with waterfalls and streams (there are even waterfalls that flow into the underground... more

I was in Oxnard on business and my husband flew in for a long weekend in between work weeks. We decided to stay at this Embassy Suite resort. Positives: * Breakfast was tasty, fast, with many choices * Nice grounds - pool area well maintained and clean * Rooms clean Negatives: * If you do not get an ocean view,... more

This hotel has a beautiful entrance lobby and we found the staff on reception very helpful and friendly. Our room overlooked a garden courtyard with a waterfall which was nice. The room itself was divided into a bedroom and living / dining room and had a microwave and fridge. We were surprised that it had two bathrooms both with showers.... more

We stayed one night here on our road trip last summer and I think about going back often. Finding an oceanfront Embassy Suites is rare since they are usually geared toward the business traveler. This one had a beautiful breezy tropical feel and a different lobby than the usual square green leafy atrium thing all ES have going on, this... more

We stayed at the Mandalay Beach Resort over fourth of July weekend and frankly I was not impressed. We are from LA and generally stay at the Ojai Valley Inn and Spa for weekend getaways but at the last minute we decided to go to the beach and this was the only spot that still had available rooms. Going into... more

This is so far the WORST place I have ever been to and I have been to a lot of hotels. The location is awesome and that's pretty much about it. The service SUCKS. And if you try to complain - they (the personnel) gang up against the customer. I am not just bitter - whoever doesn't believe - feel... more

Pretty from the outside, old and delapidated from the inside. Our room was dark and smelled like mold. The decor was outdated and in desperate need or renovation. Our bathroom light was broken as was our parent's TV in the room next to us. The positives were the location, awesome (free) breakfast buffet, and fast, friendly valet service. more
