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.

The hotel was so beautiful and captured the beachfront vibes. The interior decorations were perfect and staff was great. Fun to watch the sunset from the Shore Room with a glass of wine and to wake up to the surfers by the pier. We can't wait to visit again.

My family enjoys every single stay at this property. The team here is top notched and 2nd to none. From front desk: we were grateful Jade was available to help with our booking, Olga always a has welcoming smile (We remember her when she first started a year ago with Luke- both great hires), and Grace was friendly and courteous upon check out. Our little girl, Lani, handed her a stack of 10 room keys and was treated like a valued little guest. There were other FD staff who gave exceptional service to members of my family at various points of our overnight stay. My girls were gifted 2 buckets and shovels when requesting keys recoded. They still carry them everywhere they go to this day. In Piper, we always like see the face of an original hire in Joseph, who made our day on numerous occasions and still remembers our previous orders. He told us of his last vacation plans, which was also a nice pitch of your Hyatt Ziva property in Cabo (adding that to our property to visit). At the Shoreroom bar, we made a couple to go orders. Your German/Hungarian import, Mark provided excellent service. Very knowledgeable and social, without which the wait for lunch would have felt way longer than the 20 mins. He’s great with small talk and was helpful to other waitstaff, offering to assist in taking food drinks to other tables. I’m sure that’s true of all your staff. I overheard he even had an idea to present a guest’s celebration dessert following their recent adult drink beverage. Simple measures like that do leave a lasting impression. Many thanks for running a tight ship and keeping the back of the house aligned with the front of the house. We cannot find a single thing that would have dampened our stay this past weekend, although the weather tried its damndest to cast a gloom overhead. Everything was bright in our eyes because how could it not be staying in two of the best suites on site: the Estate Suite and the Grand Ocean Suite. Read less

This was our 2nd visit to The Seabird. We came to Oceanside specifically for this resort. My wife and I were celebrating our 19th Anniversary. We could have gone anywhere, we chose The Seabird! Everything about The Seabird fulfills our expectations of what a resort should be.

We stayed for two days and we were not able to eat breakfast at the hotel. You had to reserve in advance and by the time we checked in, the place was full!

We stayed for two days and we were not able to eat breakfast at the hotel. You had to reserve in advance and by the time we checked in, the place was full! They said we could room service, but the wait was 1.5 hours!! You cannot NOT accommodate your guests for breakfast!! Reduce the number of rooms if you don't want to expand the restaurant capacity. For our EV, there was no self parking or charging station around, so we HAD to use the valet + charging fees. Read less
