The Seabird Resort

Exceptional front desk service; very clean and well-maintained property. Rooftop bar at sister location across street was outstanding!

Wonderful hotel, outstanding staff in every department, very clean, modern, comfortable beds. Only complaint (and maybe Hotel has fixed and will not recur) two false alarms for fire in the building which first time created major panic. Also one of the elevator was out of order twice during 3 day stay which was very inconvenient because there is not stair access to go UP to floor 3 to 5 appaently, which is odd, so created stress being on time for events having to wait for the elevator those two partial days.

this hotel is incredible. the staff is friendly, the decor and design is out of this world, the breakfast is amazing and we love the complementary beach chairs and surfboard! I booked another trip before we even left. 10/10

I stayed at The Seabird for one night on October 3, 2026, and while the room itself was nice, the check-in experience left a very negative first impression. At check-in, I was waiting in line with a large stroller full of luggage, so I was not exactly easy to miss. There were three employees working at reception. Kaylen was assisting guests in the general check-in area, and when she finished with one guest, I waited for her to call me up. Instead, another woman walked up to the counter and cut in front of me. I had already been waiting for at least five minutes. Kaylen did not acknowledge that I was next or ask the woman to wait. I initially let it go because the woman was pregnant. After Kaylen finished helping her, I again waited for Kaylen to call me up. Instead, she looked up and said, “Next guest in line,” and then looked toward the guests behind me as though I wasn't standing directly in front of her. At that point, I had been waiting close to 10 minutes. There were only a few people in the area, and I was standing there with a large stroller, so it was difficult to understand how I was overlooked twice. The entire interaction was frustrating and left a bitter taste in my mouth, particularly because I have stayed at numerous Hyatt properties and have never experienced anything like this. Kaylen needs additional training on properly managing the order of guests in line, as well as greater awareness of the guests she is assisting. There was also an issue with the room keys. I booked two rooms and was given two key cards for each room. However, for each room, only one of the two key cards actually worked. This was another frustrating issue that should have been caught before handing the keys to a guest. On a more positive note, the king room with partial ocean view was nice. There was a concert happening across the street that evening, but the room was well soundproofed. We couldn't hear the concert from inside the room unless the balcony door was open, which I really appreciated. One thing the hotel should look into is the room's electrical outlets. I'm not sure what the wattage or electrical limitations were, but I plugged in my Beachwaver curling iron and it would not turn on and kept making error beeps. I initially thought the curling iron had broken, but when I got home to LA and plugged it into my outlets, it worked normally. Overall, the room itself was pleasant, but the check-in experience and multiple issues upon arrival significantly impacted my stay. For a Hyatt property at this price point, I expected a much more attentive and seamless arrival experience.

You know a hotel is doing something right when you leave thinking "Damn, I wish we were staying another night"! We stayed at The Seabird Hotel in Oceanside with our family and absolutely loved it. From the moment we arrived, everything just felt EASY. Every single staff member was incredibly friendly, the hotel is beautiful, and the whole place has that perfect upscale but relaxed SoCal vibe. The location is great, right on the beach and walking distance to restaurants, coffee, and everything else downtown. The room was beautiful and comfortable. The hotel itself is gorgeous, but what really stood out was the service. Everyone from the valet to front desk to maids were genuinely warm and helpful. The Seabird is one of those places where the experience is absolutely worth it and very family friendly. We'll absolutely be back. If you're looking for a beautiful beachfront hotel in Oceanside, BOOK IT.
