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.

Absolutely amazing experience. The customer service is truly top-notch, the rooms are comfortable and beautifully maintained, and it’s the little thoughtful touches that really set this place apart. From hot cocoa in the winter to complimentary bikes, plus dog toys and treats for furry guests, they’ve thought of everything. You can tell they genuinely care about their guests. Highly recommend.

My husband and I wanted a quick getaway to celebrate my birthday. This was the first time and definitely not the last time staying at Kimpton Shorebrake, and it was amazing! The hotel is right across from the beach! The hotel offers a retro chic ambiance with great amenities. Jackson was very attentive and even gifted me a bottle of wine for my birthday. Jackie, the property manager, was very friendly and made us feel right at home. I'm looking forward to our next stay at the Shorebreak!

After a painful surgery, I booked a two-bedroom room at Kimpton Shorebreak so I’d have a comfortable place to rest and recover, while allowing my family to stay with me, enjoy themselves, and be close by if I needed help. It turned out to be the perfect choice. From the moment I arrived, the experience felt effortless, thoughtful, and genuinely welcoming. The room was beautiful and generously sized, with sweeping ocean views and a large balcony that was perfect for watching the sunset. I chose this hotel specifically as a quiet, comfortable place to heal, and I honestly can’t imagine a better setting. Waking up to ocean views each morning brought a sense of calm and perspective throughout my recovery. The atmosphere was restorative in the truest sense, and I loved it so much that I extended my stay by an entire week. This is one of the few hotels I’ve stayed at that is truly pet-friendly. I brought my dog along as a recovery companion, and it was clear she enjoyed her stay just as much, if not more, than my family and I. Kimpton Shorebreak exceeded my expectations, and I look forward to returning when I can fully enjoy all the amenities. While Huntington Beach is well known for its summer energy, visiting in the winter felt like a hidden gem and is absolutely worth adding to your travel bucket list.

Our first time staying at Kimpton Shorebreak Hotel and it won’t be the last! From the moment we arrived, the level of service and hospitality was outstanding—thanks in large part to Jordan at the front desk. Jordan was warm, professional, and genuinely welcoming, making check-in seamless and stress-free. She went above and beyond to ensure we felt comfortable and well taken care of, answering all our questions with patience and a great attitude. It’s clear that Jordan takes pride in what she does, and her positive energy truly set the tone for our stay. Exceptional service like hers makes a lasting impression, and we couldn’t be more appreciative. Highly recommend—and kudos to Jordan for representing the property so well
