Has anyone had a "longer" stay here? With covid housekeeping has been vastly diminished but my family and I will be here for a week. I do hope they have housekeeping at least every other day.

Use of both properties’ facilities is interesting. Can a guest make a room charge at other the non-stay property?

Which of these would be more appropriate for a weekend family trip with toddlers? Or are they close enough that it doesn't matter?

Does the Seabird offer Globalist benefits (e.g. Breakfast)?

Also notice that the Mission Pacific seems to have more Suite room options -- more likely to get a suite upgrade there vs. Seabird? Or same-same?

Yes, as per post 71

Yes, the breakfast is in Piper. You can also have breakfast at High/Low. Benefits are similar at both properties.

No

I did not say it was not sufficient. It was to provide the amount as this question gets asked for properties without a club/lounge.

No. The destination fee stated so but now I see it's been updated.

The front desk agent mentioned premium wifi.

Just checked in, long travel day and didn't get to the hotel till half past midnight. Service was amazing though. From the valet to the front desk, they all did their very best to make sure everything was great for check in.

Didn't realize that my concierge had blocked me into two bohemian suites... Wow.

This is the second best suite in the hotel and I gotta say it's amazing. Two balconies that have direct ocean views, a dining table for 8, a seating area for 8, two bathrooms (one in the other bedroom).

​​​​​It's late and I'm typing this from my balcony as I try to shake the travel adrenaline. Let me know if you have questions. Will post pictures soon, everyone was tired and collapsed.

Did you make a request to your concierge for this?

ZBigFam

I had requested one bohemian and one Dreamscape for my tsus.

Here is a view from one of my balconies...

You’re near 333 and Local Tap House. I recommend them both for dining.

We might do a summer staycation for a night during the current points promo.

Thanks are they good for kids? My youngest is 10.

Can you post pictures of the suite when you have some time? Thanks!

I would say more adult oriented in price and vibe.

Rooms: rooms are amazing, the Bohemian suite is huge, has an amazing view and the couch is a pull out couch. You could comfortably fit 4 in the bohemian. The kitchenette is a nice touch with a large fridge and a dining table for 8. Coffee is an Illy nespresso like thing, great coffee. There is also a huge soaking tub which I think all suites have. The views are simply amazing.

Breakfast : breakfast is either downstairs at high low or at piper in the seabird next door. You can order your globalist breakfast from either spot. Honestly wouldn't recommend the piper restaurant as the breakfast at high low is amazing. Seriously top 3 for me when comparing to Hyatt centric loop Chicago (pre covid) and andaz Liverpool. The food is quirky but all works and the portions are good as well. Highly recommend their home made pop tarts as well as their waffles. Seriously some of the best waffles I've ever had.

Facilities : gym is very nice, two peloton bikes, ellipticals free weights etc. Enough to stay in shape while you enjoy the great eats around the area. The pool at mission pacific is small and the hot tub has a posted capacity of only 3, which is funny honestly... Not sure what they had in mind here. The worst part of the pool is that you have to walk through the bar to get to the pool. Really weird design. You show up in your robes or whatever and walk through people having a cocktail party to go for a swim.

If you have kids I would suggest going to seabird where the pool is twice the size as is the jacuzzi. Guests at mission pacific can use their pool just make sure to go to the front desk to get a pool entry key.

Service: service is inconsistent but overall very good. At breakfast some servers are great others need some training. Housekeeping is really weird with covid and here honestly I feel like they are trying to cut corners for cost savings rather than any other reason. Here's what I mean, as globalist when I check in with the Hyatt app it says that I can get daily housekeeping for my rooms. My first two days of staying here the front desk tried to keep on telling me that I couldn't get housekeeping because of covid. This is despite being offered daily housekeeping from the Hyatt app. I had to go through the rigamarole each day to convince them I was eligible. I wouldn't have cared abt housekeeping if I was here 2-3 nights but I'm here a week, I need the housekeeping. Just wish the staff was trained a bit better.

Activities: they have lots of activities most of them free, make sure you scan the qr code in the pictures as that let's you book the activities and reserve cabanas etc.

All in all it could have been 5/5 but right now it's 4/5, if they tighten up their service I would give them 5/5.
