Beautiful facility and excellent location, right on The Strand and within easy walking distance from the Metrolink transit center. Extremely helpful staff. Will be coming back next year. Did not use spa services. Definitely exceeded our expectations.

All of the amenities were perfect. The whole hotel area is clean and welcoming, with a great view of the Pacific Ocean.

Booked the Seabird for my wife's birthday from Sunday night through Monday via AMEX FHR. The room and facility was nice, but the service was abysmal, and the food was subpar. I'd much rather stay at the Mission Pacific if I ever came back to the area. Details below: Pros: Location is fantastic and steps away from the beach and dining options, oceanfront view is great Hotel is new and the room was nice, albeit somewhat smelly when we first arrived, but disappeared after we aired it out Piper generally delivered tasty food and decent service Cons: Service here SUCKS. Communicated repeatedly on the reservation, prior to check-in via text, and in person for a pack and play crib, but didn't have one upon arrival. Had to call twice and wait over an hour for one to be sent up Food was cold and orders came out incorrectly; Mother's day breakfast was a fiasco also, and took 30 minutes to get a high-chair and over an hour for food. I would've walked away like several other groups I saw if not for the breakfast credit. Food came out cold, bland, and incorrect in the case of my order. I had to ask for the cheddar grits I originally ordered (received potatoes instead), and ended up with a bowl of plain hot grits, which ended up being the best thing we ate that morning Don't expect to get an upgrade for AMEX FHR or for them to even get you checked in timely, despite seeing wide availability days prior to my stay, no room upgrades were available, and my room was not ready until after 4:00pm (12:00 is an option for FHR bookings). Also had to remind them to take off the subpar breakfast charge when I checked out The hot tub heater was broken and was colder than the pool

Great hotel and staff. Excellent food. Make this a stop on your next trip. Views are incredible and great location.

From the minute we checked in to the time that we left, we were treated like royalty at The Seabird Resort. The customer-service is top-notch! The boutique hotel is so charming with ocean decor. You don't feel like you're in a Hyatt at all. We ate in a couple of the restaurants and had great food and service. The location is ideal - right across the street from the beach and Oceanside pier. We will be back again!
