I had a very comfortable 2 night stay. I attempted to book 2 more nights, but the hotel was sold out. Overall, I enjoyed my stay, but the housekeeping service was quite slow. My room was not cleaned until around 4-5 pm, even though I had left at 8:15 in the morning for meeting.

We loved the property and our stay. The unique record players and vinyl library were an excellent touch and you can’t miss with pacific hideaways offerings. As an Expedia gold member I am used to receiving the room upgrade perks as it’s a main reason I booked this hotel. Upon arrival we were offered room upgrades of multiple types for additional amounts, I asked about my free room upgrade as it is listed as included if rooms were available, and based on me being offered room upgrades they were available. So, I will admit, that portion of our stay was disappointing. I would return and stay again, but would have like to see the vip amenities listed actually being provided.

The Shorebreak lives up to the Kimpton standard of being a cool, funky, and fun experience from beginning to end. The property is great and located right next to the pier. The lobby area is pretty amazing, with coffee at 6am sharp and tremendous sitting areas that I enjoyed every morning. Lots of amenities and very friendly staff. The restaurant is also very good with some of the best breakfasts - particularly at a hotel - I have had in a long time.
