One of the benefits of having affinity related travel credit cards is being able to accumulate rewards enough to stay at a premier property such as the Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort and Spa and using those points to pay for your stay. By leveraging your knowledge, measured spending habits and paying off your credit cards every month, traveling does not have to be an expensive leisure activity.
This Hyatt Regency property is an oceanfront resort located in the heart of Huntington Beach providing beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean. As part of the resort fee, beach chairs and umbrellas are available as beach amenities. Parking is valet only.
Guest access to the beach is through a pedestrian bridge that is connected to the hotel, which is a very short walk. Biking is one of the many activities one can enjoy while on the beach. Bike rentals are available from the various shops located along the beach that many families take advantage of and seem to enjoy.
Rooms are very spacious, well-appointed and come with private balconies. The Regency Club lounge is located on the 4th floor. Those with access to the lounge are treated to a warm breakfast, an unlimited supply of non-alcoholic drinks during the day, appetizers and an honor bar during the early evening hours and dessert at night.
Onsite amenities include several restaurants and bars such as the Red Chair Lounge (below) and a retail plaza with shops and boutiques.
There is a fitness center that is fairly good sized featuring Life Fitness exercise equipment. The grounds are well kept and provide a serene ambiance and tranquility.
Families with kids will be happy to know that there is the Slyders Water Playground. There is also another lagoon style swimming pool, which is the hotel’s main pool.
Those looking for something other than beach activities will find many retail stores, restaurants and a multi-screen Century movie theater all within a 5-mile driving distance from the resort.
Bottom Line: Using a hotel’s loyalty membership program such as the Hyatt Gold Passport and being able to accumulate points gets you closer to a rewards stay with very little out of pocket expense. Besides actual stays, there are other ways to accumulate hotel rewards including the use of affinity related travel credit cards. And if you live on the West Coast and just want a quick getaway to the beach or if Hawaii and Florida are just too far away, you can’t go wrong with the Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort and Spa. Those points you’ve worked so hard to earn eventually do pay off and make reward stays even more memorable.
