i am at the kipton in huntington beach
and this kitten is called the shore
break i'm gonna give you a tour of the
room that i stayed at for one just one
night i only stayed here for one night
with my husband and my two pups so when
i booked my room i booked a standard
room with a king bed but when i checked
in they upgraded me which is awesome so
now i have like an ocean view and the
room size is pretty big which is nice
since i have two dogs with me so i'm
gonna show you the bedroom first and
then i'm gonna show you the bathroom so
when i walked into the room i was really
pleasantly surprised at how spacious it
was and i also liked that the view was
incredible
it's so nice to be able to see
the ocean when you wake up unfortunately
um i got a little bit unlucky and it's
been really cloudy and kind of like i
don't know gloomy but yesterday we had a
little bit of sunshine so i'm happy that
we got some sunshine yesterday because
that was the whole point of coming here
was to go to the beach with the dogs
so when you walk in there is which is
this is kind of unique and a record
player and i did play it um and they
have different record players downstairs
if you want to get a different one so
that's kind of fun i've never really had
that in a room before
here is the
snack bar which i never really get
anything from the snack bar
and there is a fridge in here with more
drinks and the hotel did not come with
any water
but brian and i were celebrating so they
actually came up to the room and gave us
a bottle of champagne which we put in
the fridge because it was still warm and
three warm cookies which were so good
they were huge too um so that was really
nice this is um you know a little chest
here but i don't ever put any clothes in
the drawers if i'm only staying for one
night because i'm afraid i'm gonna
forget stuff and it's just easier to
keep it in my suitcase which that's
where my stuff is right there
now the kimton is very dog friendly so i
did request to have two dog beds
that's a little bit too small for my
puff but i'm glad that they did have it
just in case my pups didn't want to
sleep on the bed with me but of course
they did want to sleep on the bed with
me so um they the two pups slept with us
on the king bed the bed is nice and
spacious
there is
a lot of the usb ports here and a plug i
didn't use this um but it's like a sound
eraser which i guess it is kind of nice
to have if you have trouble sleeping but
i had no trouble sleeping last night so
it was fine but i can see why it might
be kind of noisy on the weekends because
the
um you can kind of hear the cars out
there a little bit i mean it's not too
bad
but um
i could see maybe on the weekends it
might be loud but i am staying on a week
night so it was not busy at all and
there's like one chair out there if you
wanted to hang out outside on the
balcony
uh there is a large tv which we did
utilize at night and
on the other side of the bed is the
phone
and i think there's like a notepad and
there was no pad in here and this is
nice too that they actually give you um
a credit or a final voucher if you um
kind of skip house cleaning if you stay
for more than one day so i thought that
was really um nice
it's kind of an interesting little
corner captain really loved this chair
and he would sleep in it like all the
time whenever we come home from like
outside or a walk he'd jump right on
here he loves that accent chair for some
reason
and this is a big lamp right here which
is a nice touch has still has that
surfer theme
and here is the desk corner nice and
spacious my husband actually had a zoom
meeting this morning so it was nice that
he had a spot to himself to do his work
and get on a call
and the wi-fi here works great so he had
no trouble logging in and um going
through with this uh the zoom meeting
there is a cooler here which you know we
didn't need to use
some glasses
um
a guest book
there's like a menu if you want to order
breakfast in room
more ocean views
and i didn't notice this until it was a
little bit too late but they do have
social hour here and all captains do
have that but usually when i check in
they mention it and they didn't mention
it when i checked in so i thought maybe
this kimton didn't have it
but apparently they did have it and i
missed out but i did get the
complimentary coffee and uh tea this
morning they do have the s'mores
um there's like fire pits downstairs if
you want to do i'm not really a big fan
of s'mores so i didn't take advantage of
that but um yeah so here's the record
player
um we did stand on tuesday night so i
wish i would have known about this they
had um
tacos and tequila tuesdays so
um i shoulda well it was at 11 so i
guess i wasn't here we did walk outside
and there was an event just walking
distance there was the tuesday um street
fair so that was pretty cool that that
was going on and then there's just like
some other information
there is a gym here that has an actual
climbing wall which i took a look at it
it looks pretty cool actually the gym
here is really nice so yeah if you're
big into working out while you're at a
hotel this is a great hotel to work out
in all right so let me go ahead and take
you to
the bathroom
all right so the bathroom is super
spacious when you walk in there's a
little corner over here where the toilet
is it's like nice nice touch there
and then the counter space oh my gosh i
love it so much counter space it's like
i need a lot of counter space when i'm
at a hotel
um to put all my toiletries and stuff so
there's a blow dryer down there extra
toilet paper the blue dryer um it didn't
work very well unfortunately and i have
really thick hair so it took forever for
my hair to dry so that was a little bit
disappointing last night
um they have lotion cotton q-tips
have like this mirror here with the
light on the side which it's kind of
dark in here and i hate putting on
makeup when it's dark so um the light
does help but i wish it was like a
little bit brighter in here but you know
but they have a magnifying mirror which
i like too the soap divinity is the
brand that they use i'm not familiar
with this brand but it's really good i
used the um
the shampoo and conditioner and the body
wash oh my gosh
everything smells so good it felt so
luxurious so i really enjoyed um their
amenities here and i like that they are
environmentally friendly they don't just
give you the little bottles that they
actually you know have refill bottles
the shower is nice and big the only
issue was oh my gosh the water flow was
horrible let me try to turn it on here
for you so you can see that's how the
water flows
so yeah that was a little disappointing
like we messed with the knob up there
and it was yeah it was useless
so that was a little disappointing we
have a little space down here where we
put our dogs water bowls now they did
not provide any water holes so this is
one we would have from home so just be
prepared for that i mean maybe if i
called them they would have brought
water bowls up i don't know but it
wasn't something that was provided when
we checked in also the dog beds too i
had to call the front desk for the dog
beds amazing bathtub we did actually use
it last night
it was so nice the water was nice and
hot and they even give you
you know some salts and this worked
really well too i smelled really good so
it's nice and relaxing last night taking
a bath before we headed to bed uh plenty
of towels
and um so yeah so overall like the
bathroom is fantastic nice and spacious
and the amenities that they give are
fantastic and here is a little closet
corner
i um did use the bathrobes i like using
that after i take a bath i have an
umbrella and a yoga mat
there's a safe down there
and also there's like a clear check in
and checkout times so checkout time is
at noon and i did call this morning to
see if i can request
for a complimentary late checkout and it
is available if they have room i guess
they can only give a certain amount of
weight checkouts but um since i called
early they were able to give me an extra
hour so i'll be checking out at 1pm
today and then there is a ironborn there
and an iron
right over there
all right so that is the tour of the
room i really enjoyed my stay here the
service is fantastic everyone here is
super dog friendly actually right when
we checked in they took polaroid
pictures of zoe and captain and they put
it up on their front desk check-in where
they have like all pictures of the dogs
that are staying that day i thought that
was so cute the lobby is nice and like
it's so warming and inviting and there's
like a nice courtyard area where there's
like fire pits and sand and a lot of
seating area and when i was here
yesterday when an end today this morning
i know there's a conference going on so
a lot of the space is used for the
conference i mean of course there's
space still for the get like normal
guests that are staying here but a lot
of it is being utilized for the
conference there's still enough room for
everyone to like sit down and you know
chill out or i even got to talk to a lot
of people that were down there because
uh zoe and captain always conversation
starters people love to like touch them
and pet them so yeah
um check-in was a breeze uh we arrived
check-in is at four but i think i
arrived around two and they already had
the room available uh so that was nice
that we were able to check in early the
beach is just right across the street
but if you want to go to the dog beach
it's about a mile and a half down so we
did drive down there is only a valet
parking there are self parking garages
but then it's a little bit more because
it's not owned by the hotel so it is
best to go ahead and valet your car but
if you're gonna just go here for the
beach you don't really need the car
anyways um and everything else is within
walking distance there's like a coffee
shop there's a ton of shops like right
on this street so and there's also cvs
right downstairs so there's plenty on
the street where you really don't need
your car there isn't really a dog
walking area but you know we walked the
dogs around the hotel and that was just
fine there are a lot of dogs here so you
know if you're someone that is worried
about a lot of dogs being around it
might not be the place for you because
it's super dog friendly and even last
night when we were walking around there
were dogs everywhere so that was kind of
cool to see how pet friendly it was we
also had dinner at the hotel and that
was really nice we had a ton of tacos i
think we had like fish shrimp and
chicken tacos and then the dogs even had
a meal they had a dog menu which was
very reasonably priced at seven dollars
and they got chicken rice and carrots of
course they loved it and they gave
really generous portions so dinner was
excellent and we got to sit outside the
patios really nice weather um the
service was great and yeah and then oh
and then we also had breakfast here in
the morning we weren't able to dine um
and sit down
so we took the the food up to the room
and we both ordered a burrito and that
was really good too and they're really
big so if you're not someone that eats a
lot in the morning you can probably
share that burrito with someone else
which my husband and i we thought you
know what we could have probably shared
this because it was a really big portion
so yeah i'm trying to think if i missed
out on anything i mean i was only here
for one night um because i really wanted
to enjoy the beach with my dogs uh
because captain has never been and it
was um it's been a while for zoey since
she's been to the beach so that is my
review of the shore break hotel at the
kempton in huntington beach i hope you
