The hotel

Undoubtedly hip, the Kimpton Shorebreak Huntington Beach perfectly captures the sun-drenched spirit of California, complete with surf-inspired décor that complements this enviable beachfront location. Although relaxed, service is of the highest standard, and guest rooms boast plenty of home-from-home amenities (including your own record player!) as well as a balcony from which to admire ocean or city views. The Pacific Hideaway Restaurant and Bar may offer a casual vibe, but it’s serious on food! Very popular with locals and guests alike, authentic coastal cuisine will delight, as will handcrafted cocktails sure to get you in that Californian mood. The ‘living room’ lounge is a great place to relax awhile before dinner, swapping tales of the day’s beach adventures. Alternatively, as the sun sets, head to the Deck, a private courtyard for guests use only with multiple fire pits to keep you snug! There's activities galore, with Sunday yoga classes, a range of beach amenities on-hand, and a daily social hour, and guests can also head to the state-of-the-art fitness centre, open 24-hours.

Magical. It is the best experience I have had. Will never forget this place. Coming back, yearly, with my travel companion. $120 daily food credit(2 rooms) Everything I tried was delicious. Staff were kind. My brother, who is a local,. recommended this place. And he has never stayed here. No regrets. Loved every minute of it.

Really great beach vibe hotel. Caring staff, great extras like happy hour, s’mores kits for the fire pits and vinyl to play in the room. We pre booked breakfast and it was well worth it at the Pacific Hideaway. No complaints at all. Very chill. Would definitely go back.

My family and I had a memorable stay at the Shorebreak, but not for the reasons you might expect. After a long drive, our 2-year-old unfortunately got car sick. Facing the daunting prospect of a 6 hour return journey with a soiled car seat, we reached out to the concierge for assistance. What followed was a stellar display of customer service that truly set Shorebreak apart. From the moment we spoke to Matt, who warmly welcomed us, to the practical assistance offered by Kris, and the extraordinary personal service from Omar, every interaction was awesome. Despite the hotel's policy on not lending cleaning supplies due to liability, the staff were proactive in finding solutions. Omar, particularly, went above and beyond by arranging a personal mobile car cleaning service for us. He managed everything seamlessly, from coordinating the cleaning to handling the laundry for the soiled items, making sure our car was fresh and ready for the journey back.The cleaning service was punctual, arriving at 8:30 AM as promised, with Omar overseeing the entire process. Omar even facilitated a hassle-free payment, ensuring everything was taken care of without any inconvenience to us. Thanks to the Shorebreak team, especially Omar, what could have been a stressful situation turned into a testament to the hotel's exceptional customer service ethos. They didn't just meet our needs; they anticipated them, making our stay unforgettable for all the right reasons.In a world where genuine, thoughtful service is becoming a rarity, Shorebreak shines brightly as an example of hospitality done right. I can't recommend them highly enough! Read less

I would 100% recommend this hotel!!! We went as a family, including our dog (18 month golden doodle) during our kids' Spring Break and it was absolutely amazing and much better than expected. I wasn't aware how "kid-friendly" the hotel was. There were plenty of activities for the kids to enjoy while we were able to lounge and relax. One of the better parts of the stay was the service. The staff were excellent. Omar, along with his team of Danny and Audriana, were a pleasure to work with. They were so friendly and always had a smile on their faces. They were more than helpful and their level of customer service is what is going to keep us coming back to this hotel. Read less
