Southern California is remarkable for many reasons, but perhaps the most notable of its many wonderful attributes is a beach culture unlike any other in the world. For a true taste of sun-kissed splendor, head to Kimpton Shorebreak Hotel in world-famous Huntington Beach, California. Hailed as the original "Surf City USA," this vibrant Orange County town promises its visitors a unique Pacific Coast experience. Downtown luxury meets a relaxed beachfront vibe at the boutique-style Kimpton Shorebreak Hotel, just steps away from Main Street. The hotel is set back just enough from the action to keep a more chill, quiet demeanor. But if you want to get out there for food, drinks, shopping and festivity, these are a few awesome things you'll find right outside our front door.

This was the best hotel stay. The whole hotel is so fun and they definitely encourage having a good time especially at their ski bar. The staff was awesome and friendly but Jessica truly is a gem she took care of me throughout my whole stay and was always on top of everything. When she heard it was my buddies birthday she sent us cookies and brownies. She is the most sweet and thoughtful hotel employee I have ever encountered.

This hotel property is such an unexpected gem! Nestled among the shops and restaurants of Huntington Beach directly across from the pier and the beach, it offers so much that isn't evident from the outside. Besides offering well-appointed rooms decorated in a very beachy vibe (and featuring a record player in every room - our room had The Eagles LP "Hotel California") the lobby is on the second floor, giving a feel of exclusivity and escape from the world below. The staff is possibly the best I've encountered en total at any property!! Every single person, from valet to front desk to housekeeping to bar/restaurant staff was polite, friendly, welcoming and always had a smile. And I really appreciated being able to communicate with their team via text message check ins throughout our stay. Daniel and Adin were helpful with anything we requested and again were extremely friendly and helpful. One other person stood out and would be my selected MVP of this property - I believe her name is Vanessa (?) but she always seemed to be at the front desk for the morning / day shift. Always helped me with any questions, getting change, replace my room key, or make suggestions of where to go and what to do for our stay. She has long curly dark hair and the most welcoming smile every single day. This is officially my happy place and our go-to property for our staycations.

Honestly, this might be the best hotel experience of have ever had (and I travel for a living so that says a lot). The staff are the most attentive, friendly, hospitable, and just plain fun!! Danny, Vanessa, Delorean, Steven, and our wonderful server (I’ve forgotten his name) made our stay so special! I can’t wait for our next stay here!!

Danny and Vanessa at the front desk were so helpful with my stay. I stay at the Shorebreak every year for Christmas with family and the service is amazing. Everyone is so friendly and accommodating. The restaurant is delicious and I love bringing my dog. It’s such a great atmosphere.
