“Warm & Personal (Focus on Greg’s Hospitality)
​5/5 Stars
If you’re looking for top-tier service and a phenomenal stick selection in Oceanside, look no further than Cigar Grotto. Greg is absolute gold—super knowledgeable, friendly, and always makes you feel right at home whether you’re a seasoned cigar smoker or picking something out for the first time. Hands down the best local spot. Highly recommend!”

“Trying a new activity is a funny thing. No matter how fun something appears when watching it or hearing someone talk about it, nothing compares to trying it yourself. I’ve come to accept that the memories we take away from an experience are almost wholly dependent upon other people. Perfect planning does not guarantee a good experience. What matters is how one is introduced to a new activity. That first time on skis or a snowboard. On a surfboard. On a bike. Swinging a racquet. All rely on the people introducing you to it and coaching you through it. For Father’s Day, my sister treated my brother-in-law (and some of us tag-alongs) to an iFly experience. The flying was exhilarating. The experience? World class thanks to Jake, Bridget, and, foremost, our instructor, Brendan. The need for friendliness, courtesy, and patience seems obvious for a business like iFly. Making it feel sincere and the customer feel welcome is another level. Thanks for the great day!”

“Great group of people who love/care about Oside and love having a good time listening/dancing to quality musical acts. Summer group bike rides to the beach provide a lot of joy and happiness to everyone and allows you to make new friends.”

“The most beautiful venue and an unforgettable experience! ?

We just had my little sister’s quinceañera at Bella Gala Oceanside on 08/08/26, and we truly couldn’t have done it without them! Everything came out beautifully better than we could have ever imagined and beyond our expectations. From the very beginning, when we first toured the venue, Erik was absolutely amazing! He was so helpful, patient, and detailed in explaining how everything would work. From the weeks leading up to the quinceañera, to the days before, and especially the day of the event, everything went so smoothly. The best part was that we never once had to worry or stress about something going wrong. Everything was handled so professionally, and we were able to actually enjoy and be present for such an important day. That alone meant so much to our family! A huge THANK YOU to Erik and the entire Bella Gala team for making my sister’s quinceañera so special and memorable. From the servers to the security team, every single staff member was wonderful, professional, and attentive. If we ever need a venue in the future, Bella Gala will definitely be our first choice! We are so grateful for everything you did and for helping make such a special day absolutely perfect.
Thank you again, Bella Gala! ?✨”

“We recently had a photo shoot for our twins at Bookable Studios, and the experience exceeded all of our expectations. We wanted to create lasting memories to share with family and friends both near and far, and the team delivered something truly special.

From the moment we arrived, everyone was warm, welcoming, and professional. A special thank you to Jose, our photographer, who was absolutely amazing. He made our children feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire session, which resulted in beautiful, natural-looking photos that truly captured their personalities.

The entire process was seamless, and the quality of the images was outstanding. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. If you’re looking for a studio that provides exceptional service, a comfortable environment, and stunning photography, I highly recommend Bookable Studios. Thank you for helping us create memories that our family will cherish for years to come!”

“The venue was immaculate and the staff went above and beyond to ensure our event went off without a hitch. Gwen was outstanding from start to finish and Kiah did outstanding working with our team. 10/10 would recommend and we will be back soon.”

“The best wine tasting you can get here in Oceanside. Morgan is the absolute best!It’s a great atmosphere, there is a wood fire pizza team that makes fresh pizzas, and they have a full beer tasting for those that don’t care for wine.Children are welcome but expected to not run amuck, thank god!!!”

“It's a beautiful place went there to see my nephew retire as Master Sergeant from the Marines after serving 22 years congratulations MS Roland Luna Jr for your services.”

“What a lovely community of golf with beautiful views, and a great track:) My Sunday round always starts with lovely greetings from Henry (cart barn), Don & Dave (starters), Nikki, Patrick, Aaron, Keller (management and pro-shop) and continues throughout my round with interactions with Barbie, Savanah, Will, and Annabelle in food and beverage. Arrowood has always been a well cared for course, and the team has done a wonderful job in recovering the course from a very difficult situation at the end of spring this year. Arrowood has always reinvested heavily into the course, the grounds, their restaurants, flight deck, and driving range. Buy yourself a PALM card and it becomes a real no brainer.”

“Play Kingdom is a hidden gem!! Clean, affordable, big play structure indoors with a place for parents to hang out and watch their kids play. Perfect for work from home parents who want to get some work done without much interruption or for homeschool kiddos who need to burn some energy! Love hanging out and doing playdates here 🤩”

“Customer service from Betty during check-in and check-out was awful. As a Soldier coming to Camp Pendleton for training, it was disappointing to have that experience. The constant questioning during both check-in and check-out made no sense and made the process more difficult than it needed to be. Management definitely needs to work with her on her customer service skills.
Overall, though, the stay was good. The rooms were really nice, clean, and comfortable. They were having a Wi-Fi issue, but it appeared they were working to fix it.
There was also a nice small gym, as well as a great outside patio and pool area to relax and chill. Having a restaurant conveniently located in the hotel parking lot was another plus.
Overall, despite the poor customer service at the front desk, it was a good stay.”

“Worst water pressure in shower I’ve ever had. Sink did not drain and no service people to fix the problem. Had a sign to get ice at front desk for any ice chests but front desk would not honor the sign. We also had a bartender that would not wait on us. Terrible customer care and service.”
