10/10 Excellent
Loved this property. The regular rooms aren’t very practical, however, if you need to get any work done (there is no desk or even table to work from in the room). It is also odd to have nowhere to hang any clothes (just some drawers under the tv) at all so would mean living out of your suitcase for the duration of the trip.
Perfect for a short stay. Excellent staff and beautiful rooms despite the lack of basic practical elements. At the end of the Main Street so perfect location.

the room was very clean and made up really nicely for our arrival. the complimentary welcome basket was a really nice touch.
all the staff were so friendly and helpful.

A great hotel at a reasonable price. A 40 minute walk to State Street, but right at the beach. I had a third floor room with a king size bed and a large bathroom with separate shower and bath tub, but the standout was a private terrace overlooking the beach and park. The staff were excellent and the property in great shape. There's an Italian restaurant on sight.

Well equipped and clean rooms, perfect for families as separate bedrooms and great kitchen area. Excellent service from all staff members. Ample self parking. Great facilities of pools/hot tubs/ pickleball & tennis courts. Next to golf course so easy access to driving range. Great location for access to 101 without being affected by any noise. Free breakfast well stocked but not overly healthy. Would definitely stay here again if in Oxnard for more than a couple of days.

Such a lovely place. We received a really warm welcome on arrival and this set the tone for our entire trip. The team at Brisas del Mar are fabulous - so friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious with great facilities - a huge comfortable bed and a great shower. The breakfast was simple but really handy to start the day. Perfect location for walking to the marina and the town. Highly recommended

Great hotel in a convenient location. Easy access to the beach and downtown with local amenities close-by. The room was clean and well furnished. I didn't have any of the free breakfast but it looked popular with plenty of choice. I was on the top floor on the side away from the highway and it was very quiet. Pool area was a little more noisy but it really didn't bother me that much at all and I got used to it

The apartment was really cool and it was a bonus being able to wash some clothes! The location was great and was close to a really cool little brewery called Red Tandem. The staff were friendly with great recommendations.
