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.

The staff is great. I’ll say it again they are great. The location of right across the road from the beach is so convenient. The beach chairs , umbrella and cooler simplifies one’s trek immensely. Then there is the managers social from 5-6. It is fun to meet others. It is our second visit. We hope to be back again. From the Windy City

I’ll go straight to the point: Kimpton shorebreak is one of my favorite places in the world ! My family and me have been staying there two years ago and nothing changed… some changes have been done actually but for the best : for instance you still have the complimentary coffee milk and tea the morning but this time you can also have bed & breakfast rate at the Pacific Hideaway restaurant . Another very cool idea is sending desk texts directly on your phone, so if you need something, the Kimpton team will be asking you if everything’s alright and will send you very shortly after some towels or other stuff you asked for… and don’t worry it’s still very human, because you have kind nice available persons like Danny, Anna, Kel, Carly, Jessica behind your screen (sorry if I forgot names ;)) Well we really enjoyed our stay there and you keep on smiling even when it’s time to leave your room for somebody else! Kimpton shorebreak will always be cherished in our hearts 🥰

My girls trip could not be complete without the ShoreBreak. The hotel has beautiful views and great food and an even better staff. We want to thank Jessica in particular for making our trip special. Her attentiveness and upbeat personality cannot be compared. She was always checking in on us with a genuine smile on her face, and updating us on the fun stuff going on at the hotel. Her bubbly personality made this place feel like staying at a friend’s cool beach house.

had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The room was very clean, comfortable, and nicely maintained. The front desk staff went above and beyond — not only providing excellent service but also sharing great restaurant and activity recommendations that really enhanced my trip. One of the highlights was being able to borrow bikes from the hotel, which made exploring the area a lot of fun. The on-site restaurant also did not disappoint — both the food and drinks were excellent. Another nice touch was the daily happy hour hosted in the lobby, a perfect way to enjoy a beer and meet other guests in a relaxed setting. Overall, everything from the accommodations to the staff and amenities made my stay memorable. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
