Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort & Spa

The most famous surfing beach in California waits just over the pedestrian bridge from Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort & Spa. Designed with meetings in mind, the Huntington Beach retreat supplies countless incentives for between-meetings fun. Attendees may want to shoot the curl at Huntington Pier, lounge in the sun, or indulge at the Pacific Waters Spa—an oasis renowned for rejuvenating saltwater treatments and more. Group members can also unwind at the fitness center, lagoon-style pool, water park, jogging trails, shopping village, restaurants and lounges—all accompanied by attentive Hyatt service.

The resort's red-tile roofs and arches evoke the charm of California's mission period, and the interiors continue the theme. The gracious style extends from the lobby to the 517 rooms and suites, which combine business-friendly amenities like oversized desks with creature comforts like pillow-top mattresses and ocean-view balconies.

Meanwhile, the resort's conference center gets down to business with its own porte cochere and lobby at the west end of the property. Three ocean-view ballrooms hold groups of up to 2,222, nine breakout rooms accommodate up to 222, and three boardrooms host up to 14. A large interior courtyard serves as the corridor between venues as well as a central spot for hospitality. In addition, four oceanfront courtyards span over 40,000 square feet for events—highlighted by lush gardens, lawns, splashing fountains, spacious patios, and stately palms.
