First class hotel on Half Moon Bay harbor. Luxurious suites with patio all overlooking harbor and ocean. Steps to exellent restaurants, indoor mall, beach trails, pier, fishing trips and kayaking. 10 minutes to quaint shops and world class golf. Warm cozy lounge with full bar and excellent food featuring lots of fresh local seafood and produce. Meeting rooms, ballroom and wedding facilities top notch.

We paid $265 for a Wednesday night stay in October. Our room was huge and beautifully decorated. We loved the bathtub, fireplace and refrigerator. The view of the harbor from the small balcony was gorgeous. The bed was comfortable. Staff was friendly, but not overly so. Parking was in a garage underneath the hotel. We walked along the harbor to get coffee the next morning.

Unfortunately, I don't think that we would stay here again due to the foghorn. We read the other reviews and knew to expect it, but it was unlike any foghorn we'd ever heard. It was not the deep, booming sound that we expected. It sounded more like a car alarm beeping every 10 seconds. The hotel provides earplugs in the nightstand drawer - and there is a white noise machine in the room. Despite this, we could still hear the horn.

I know there is nothing the hotel can do about the horn and it's a shame, because it's really a beautiful property with a stunning view. The room rate is fairly high for us, but would have been completely worth it had we had a better night's sleep.

The hotel is just lovely. The decor, room size and accomodations all around was nice. The only reason this hotel wasn't rated higher is due to the noise. They provided a white noise machine, which I didn't use, and ear plugs which I didn't use,and in fact laughed, when I discovered them. The noise came from an apparent lack of sound buffer between all of the walls. My travel partner slept through the night without hearing a thing. I wish I would have at least turned the noise machine on, looking back. There are 2 restraunts, a marina and a beach to watch the sunset within very close walking distance. If you go, you will enjoy yourself and find the room spacious and the staff accomdating. But, do use the noise machine!

Stayed a couple of nights at the Oceano. The rooms, hallways, and lobby are very clean and decorated very well. Has a nice feel. Parking is great, the nearby restaurants are plenty, and the location is good. I would not be concerned about the fog horn as I did not even notice it. The Oceano is a great place for weddings. The price varies by time of year and bookings. At $200 a night the place is a great value. At $300+ then look around. A final word is that the hotel location is lovely but if you want to hear the surf then try a few other hotels nearby.
