We enjoyed our time here. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Great location on the beach. Staff was very friendly. Didnt realize they only have Valet parking at a cost of $55/night and the pools were too small and over crowded for the size of the resort.

Very pet friendly! Grass around the hotel and a little city park a couple of blocks away for the morning and evening walks, and the beach dog park a short drive all made a nice stay with our big dog! Clean and comfortable room and very helpful and friendly staff.

My special needs son and I had the best stay at the Waterfront Beach Resort. I loved the easy access to the beach and the view from the pool, he loved being able to wander wherever he wanted and do his own thing. We were upgraded to a suite on arrival which was absolutely fantastic! Staff was super friendly and took initiative, anticipating needs. We will definitely return!

This hotel was beautiful. The staff was so friendly and helpful. We could see the ocean from our room and it was just across the PCH. It had its own restaurants, but so close to other great restaurants and shopping. Would definitely recommend

Amazing property with great amenities. This location is perfect for families with spacious suites and comfortable beds. Both pools were great and the menus are well priced. From arrival in valet, to the bell desk helping us load out; we will definitely be back! If Huntington Beach is a stop on your next family trip, book the waterfront!
