Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Oceanside Pier and The Strand promenade sit across the street, with the California Surf Museum a short walk away.
The rooms
Mansfield seersucker robes hang in the wardrobes, and private balconies look directly out over the ocean.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated third-floor pool looks straight out over Oceanside Pier, flanked by striped loungers and private cabanas.
The spa
Sunny's Spa includes an ocean-facing relaxation lounge, sound bath rituals, and a dedicated hair and nail salon.
The sauna and gym
The Cove thermal suite holds a cedar warming sauna, and the 24-hour fitness center looks out through tall windows.
Dogs stay too.
Bar
The Shore Room
This oceanfront lounge pours craft cocktails around outdoor fire pits as the sun sets over the Pacific.
Guests are welcomed into a bright, breezy lobby that leads to indoor and outdoor lounges with sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean...
At the table
Piper serves handmade pastas on a wraparound sidewalk patio, and The Shelter Club pours drinks beside indoor billiards tables.
How it began
Opened in 2021, the resort marked the county's largest oceanfront development in more than fifty years.
“Seabird has 226 rooms, many with balconies overlooking the ocean, a similar beachy decor, a big pool, and more local art.”
