After years of trying to get out mom to move from her home town of 75 years, Tulsa, we finally convinced her…. Once she toured the beautiful Brookdale Ocean House in Santa Monica. She lived happily there for almost 4 years. I am writing this today because Momma recently and peacefully passed there, 4 days shy of 97. Brookdale is not only beautiful, with lovely entertainment, excellent food, and the best view in town…. But it is a community of truly the most genuinely caring staff members that keep a watchful and loving eye out on their residents. The few days before she passed, there was a steady stream of both residents and staff members stopping by to hold her hand, tell us the most amazing stories, and doting on us for anything we might need while we sat bedside. Tom, the manager, was also instrumental in gently guiding us with the end of life decision when Hospice was repeatedly unavailable. We will forever be grateful for their 4 years of extraordinary care and will never forget how their genuine love for our mom gave us so much peace…. Right up until the end. We plan to continue to visit our friends there and could not recommend this community more!

Brookdale Ocean house probably has the best location in the United States. It’s on the beach very close to the Santa Monica pier.It’s a short walking distance to the sand, less than a minute walk to the sand. The views are wonderful and you could not want to be at a better place. I need a minimum of care, but the caregivers here have been terrific! There’s entertainment here at least once a week, including singers, dancers, and pianist that everybody seems to like. of course, there are always problems at places, but the executive Director here now is very responsive and every time I’ve asked her to do anything or fix anything. She’s taking care of it for me. The staff members here are terrific, to mention a few:Rose at the front desk and Danai at the desk, Bri the dining room, Sandra for activities, are all outstanding and work very hard to make the place pleasant for all of us.

I have had the privilege of working with Hannah Lee over the years and she goes above and beyond for her residents to ensure they have the best experience and quality of care within Brookdale Ocean House. They pride themselves in providing excellent care and it definitely shows! Their staff are always very professional and welcoming and I could not recommend this lovely community for our clients and families enough.

My wife (Tatjana) has been performing her one woman show (singing/dancing/costumes) at Ocean House for many years. We have always found the staff to be very professional and caring. The residents have great energy during our shows and we always look forward to performing at Brookdale Ocean House.

I have had the pleasure of performing piano concerts at the wonderful OCEANHOUSE in Santa Monica, CA - each month for quite a few years. The view is spectacular as the property sits right on the beach. Palm tress, & the Pacific Ocean views from the ground floor dining room, all the way up the 10 flights - for those lucky enough to have an ocean view room. The staff are professional and accommodating, and the residents are simply lovely. They have alway been very gracious to me. I appreciate them very much. And I am in heaven playing their high end Steinway Grand piano, which no other senior property has.
I highly recommend Oceanhouse.
