Shorebreak Hotel in
Huntington Beach, Pet Friendly
CHECK PRICES!
Shorebreak Hotel in
Downtown "HB"
stands in contrast to the more conservative
hotels down the road--the Hilton Waterfront
Resort and the Hyatt Regency Resort & Spa.
The decor in the Shorebreak, which only
occupies the 2nd & 3rd stories (bottom floor
contains shopping and lobby entrance) is
vibrant, trendy and quite contemporary. It
ties the surf and beach themes into the
hotel spaces so that you're never far from
excitement, even when you're sitting in your
hotel room.
The priciest rooms overlook the Pacific
Ocean and
Huntington Beach Pier,
of course, with other rooms offering
courtyard or views of the rooftops and
surrounding neighborhoods. The 2nd floor
features the main check-in lobby, accessible
by an elevator or set of stairs, and this is
where you can veer toward your room, or head
over to the dining and bar area that
features breakfast, lunch, dinner, and
cocktails.
FOOD - The food prices in the hotel's
Zimzala restaurant are a little higher than
some surrounding cafes on the streets below,
so you'll be glad to know you can head out
the door in the morning and walk 1 1/2
blocks to Starbucks Coffee, or go right
across the street from the hotel to grab
Sertinos cofeee and the new French baguettes
in the next door shop. Most restaurants
feature outdoor tables where you can sit
next to your dog, to keep an eye on him or
her. It's really great for pet owners!
Dining downtown is never more than 3-4
blocks from the hotel, though it's generally
only a block or two tops. The cafes are
indoor & outdoor cafes featuring breakfast
in places such as IHOP or Sugar Shack,
lunch--Mexican, Wahoo's Fish Tacos, Thai,
Vegetarian--and more. And then for fine
dining many like to eat next to Huntington
Beach Pier at Duke's, where you can come
casual (shirt & shoes required), and sample
fish, chicken, salads and other entrees,
along with cocktails, famous ocean sunsets
and unforgettable Hula Mud Pie.

DOG FRIENDLY HOTEL -
Shorebreak Hotel accepts pets and
features a little outdoor patio with a potty
area for pets. This is important to know
about, as the beach across the street
doesn't allow pets. Dog Beach is on Pacific
Coast Highway approx. 1 mile from the hotel,
accessible by car or by walking your pet.
There's ample green lawn surrounding the
hotel on the public greenbelts on Pacific
Coast Highway, so you need only take your
dog across the street for a walk. Cleanup is
the rule, but you'll find plenty of
dispensers. If you have worries, ask the
hotel front desk if they can help you out.
BONFIRES AT BEACH
- Step out of the hotel, walk across the
street to the beach, turn left on the beach
path and walk approx. 4 blocks to the fire
rings. Though beach concessions sell fire
wood, check with your hotel. There may be
firewood sold at CVS in the hotel structure.
Bicycle rentals, skate rentals and even
surfboard lessons are just across the street
from the hotel. It is so convenient, you
won't believe it!
Beach hours: Huntington City Beach: 5 a.m. to 10
p.m., State Beaches: 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., Huntington
Beach Pier: 5 a.m. to Midnight.
