Dubbed the Brooklyn of North County, South Oceanside Has a Unique Charm That Makes it one of Southern California’s Most Beloved Coastal Communities.

Home to a vibrant collective of creatives, ocean lovers, and community members from all walks of life, South O is a multifaceted beach town overflowing with culture in the heart of Southern California. South Oceanside has it all, from world-class surf breaks and award-winning restaurants to a lively arts scene. 

Eat & Drink in Oceanside

Our local eateries have been recognized nationally (Esquire) and internationally (Michelin). When it comes to dining, Oceanside offers a little bit of everything, from local spots prioritizing fresh, locally sourced ingredients to international fusion and award-winning fine dining. Additionally, we have award-winning coffee shops, breweries, and distilleries. Check out our favorite Oceanside restaurants to find a bite to eat. Right outside our hotel, guests can dine at local favorite spots like Cream of the Crop, an organic market, The Plot (a plant-based eatery), and Municipal Taco, right across the street. Looking for a fun night out, we’ve got live music and drinks up the street at Pour House, or jump on the 5 for a 20-minute ride to see who’s playing The Belly Up in Solana Beach.

Our Oceanside Hotel is Located in the Heart of San Diego’s North County

The Green Room Hotel is located mere blocks from the most convenient intersection in all of San Diego County—the 5 and 78 freeways, which gives you unparalleled access to some of our favorite locations like Stone Brewery and the Safari Park in Escondido, wine-tasting in Temecula, and surfing at Old Man's or Trestles. Our hotel is just steps away from several small businesses in South O and North Carlsbad, and the Coastal Rail Trail bike bath is right outside our front door. Take a beach cruiser for a spin and cruise through Buena Vista Lagoon, the first ecological preserve in Golden State, or rent a surfboard and head down to one of the many nearby surf breaks. We have everything you need to help you make the most of your Oceanside vacation.

Oceanside Surf & Beyond

Oceanside is a playground for surfers. With the most swell exposure and consistent surf in San Diego County, we’ve got a wave for every level of surfer. From the Oceanside Harbor to the several peaks south of the pier to the numerous Carlsbad jetty and reef waves, there’s plenty of surf out there. If the swell is pumping, jump on the 5 and head north to Trestles or south to Blacks. Beyond the surf, our guests have easy access to epic whale watching and deep sea fishing right out of Oceanside Harbor, as well as the best pier between Ocean Peach and LA.  

Welcome to the Neighborhood 

While those moments getting barreled or kicking it backstage after the show are certainly amazing, it’s everything that has come together to make the moment: time, place, effort, execution, and the people you get to share it with. We aim to provide a context for you to find those opportunities and live them to the fullest.
