Overview
Senior living should start with more time and freedom. Where do you find that? Right here at Brookdale Ocean House in Santa Monica, California. We’re more than an assisted living community. Sure, we offer custom care plans, spacious accommodations and a fun-filled recreational calendar. But we also shoulder more of the day-to-day responsibilities, so you can spend more time doing the things you love.
Imagine filling your days with things like rooftop happy hour socials, trivia competitions and enriching technology classes. Because we handle things like cooking, cleaning and property maintenance, you can. No more wasting hours on chores. We’ve got you covered, so now the only thing you have to decide is how you want to spend your time.
Consider picking up a new hobby, scheduling regular play dates with your grandchildren or attending one, or many, of the events on our campus calendar:
-
Cardio classes
-
Live entertainment
-
Themed dinners
-
Blackjack games
-
Foreign language classes
-
Special holiday teas
-
Movie nights
You’ll also have a private apartment, and you can choose from several floor plans. Some even include a balcony — or a patio if you’re on the ground level. No matter which one you pick, you’ll have a kitchen, plenty of space and an abundance of natural light to give you that home sweet home feeling. Your basic utilities and maintenance are included too, which means you have even fewer things to worry about or manage.
We want you to have everything you need to make the most of your days, which is why we make sure you have a custom care plan before you move in. You can choose how much, or how little, help you want and know you only have to pay for the services you really need. Our staff is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to be alerted to an emergency. But we’re also here to lend a hand with daily living activities like bathing, dressing, managing medication and coordinating with outside healthcare providers.

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!

i love the location and my son selected it because my husband and I would ride our bikes along the ocean trails. It is near the homes of three of my children. My third son’s home burned during the Palisades fires and he was only 15 minutes away. At the time, the management was outstanding and made me feel very comfortable and loved. I originally chose the 8th floor because it looked down over the Santa Monica peer, where I first met my husband and I had a view of the palisades, where I lived. Then my son, moved me down to the third floor because I got a better price and I am very happy there. I am proud to be one of Ocean House’s ambassadors. Which means that I try to meet every new person that comes in and I sit with them for meals, get to know them, and I introduce them to other residents who have similar interests. I like to go out of my way to encourage and escort new residents to participate in monthly meetings such as Chef Chat, Town Hall, and Resident Council. I also go their apartments to invite them to join the New Resident Orientations. I have made treasured friends during my five years here. The servers are outstanding and those who help us at the front desk are exceptional! With the hiring of the current Activities Manager Sandra, the level of entertainment, the choices of things we can do and the level of love and kindness is exceptional as Is her assistant Sarah!

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.

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.
