The Seabird Resort

Oceanside, San Diego

Virgin rating

The hotel

Just steps away from the white sands and surfboards of Southern California, the Seabird Resort is a coastal estate in which you can relax, eat and drink, and get pampered to your hearts content. The hotel offers a beach concierge service with chairs, umbrellas and other essential supplies for you. The standard rooms are spacious, plenty of which offer ocean views - but if you're travelling as a larger group then the suites offer expansive balconies, large soaking tubs, and that extra bit of luxury for your stay. At the Shore Room you'll find iconic views, ocean delicacies, and craft cocktails - often accompanied by live acoustic music sets on 'Sparkling Sundays'. Sunny's Spa and and Beauty Lounge is on hand, whatever treatment you may be after, or relaxing on the chaise lounges around the pool could be enough for you! The hotel is next door to the sister resort, Mission Pacific Hotel, which offers a rooftop bar with live DJ sessions if you're looking for a more lively evening out.

I've passed by Oceanside several times over the years, not living too far, in Orange County. I was there for work, in which my wife and 4 yr old daughter came along. The location was AWESOME! It's right across from the beach, not far from the pier and there was a playground on the beach as well (added bonus for kids) There were tons of local eateries & a movie theater which were all walkable. We had such a great experience from Valet, to Bell Service and an outstanding Front Desk, who was especially warm, friendly and welcoming. We were greeted w/a glass of sparkling wine :) Now, if they had a warm chocolate chip cookie, that would put me over the top! Certainly, it was a great way to be greeted! The room was clean, well decorated and quaint. It's only 6 floors, which makes it a nice intimate hotel. We loved it so much that my wife is planning our next stay-cation there! Enjoy! Read less

Nice property, however only one operating elevator for the entire hotel. Inexcusable. The TV guide did not match the actual programming. The coffee maker malfuntioned and spewed water all over the counter. I had to go purchase morning coffee.

We enjoyed having complimentary beach chairs and towels (which we were able to use on day of check in and check out. Liliana at the front desk was great at check in and Ivan, our bell hop was so kind. We ate breakfast at Piper which is in the lobby and had a great buffet; however, $50 a person for breakfast still seems like a lot. We also ate at the Shore Room that’s attached to the hotel and wasn’t very exciting; I’ve had much better lobster rolls. Overall wouldn’t recommend eating at the hotel, but would stay at this resort any chance i could get! Read less

Had a great stay at the Seabird! Location is excellent. We arrived via Coaster train and the walk from the station to the property was short and simple. Check in was done via the Hyatt app, and the staff accommodated our early check in request. Room was clean and fresh and view from the balcony was amazing. The staff were friendly and efficient. Pool area was very nice, as was fitness center. Again, great views of the beach from the pool area. Had a great stay. We will definitely be back again! Read less
