5.6/10

I had a fantastic stay at the Kimpton Shorebreak Huntington Beach Resort. The location right across from the beach made it super convenient, and I loved that the hotel is dog-friendly, allowing me to bring my furry friends without any extra fees. However, the noise from the street could be a concern for light sleepers, and my ocean view wasn't quite what I expected (it was more of a partial view). Overall, I appreciated the friendly service and chilled vibe.

Rooms

8.0

I enjoyed my spacious oceanfront king room, which featured a huge bathroom with a soaking tub and bath salts. However, I did expect a clearer ocean view for my booking, as it turned out to be partial. The Dohm noise machine was handy for the street noise though.

My stay at the Kimpton Shorebreak was quite enjoyable overall. The location is fantastic, just steps from the beach, and the staff were genuinely friendly, making me feel welcomed throughout my visit. However, my room had a minor issue with the view being blocked, which was a bit disappointing. Despite that, I appreciated the unique amenities and the vibe of the hotel.

Rooms

8.0

The room I had was spacious and clean, featuring a cozy layout with a distinct seating area. However, the 'Garden View' was blocked by a climbing wall, which detracted from the overall experience. Also, the lighting in the seating area was quite dim, necessitating artificial light during the day.

The hotel's location is unbeatable, just across from Huntington Beach and close to many restaurants. It was great to be in a lively area, and perfect for dog lovers since the dog beach was within walking distance.

The on-site dining experience was a little hit-or-miss. While breakfast was delicious and reasonably priced, I encountered longer than expected wait times for dinner service, which was a bit frustrating. However, the staff remained friendly and the quality of food was decent.

I had a fantastic stay at Kimpton Shorebreak Huntington Beach Resort! My oceanfront room was not only spacious and clean, but it also had a comfy bed and a fabulous bathroom with both a walk-in shower and a soaking tub. The only drawbacks were the noise from Pacific Coast Highway and the lack of a pool, but the beachfront location and attentive staff more than made up for it.
