Beachrunners' Inn

We loved Beachrunner's Inn! We stayed in the Laguna Beach room, which has a king-sized bed, and it couldn't have been more clean and cozy. Patricia and her daughter are lovely hostesses. It's in a great area, within walking distance to shops and restaurants ... The Hare is a relatively new bar with light bites and it's a couple of blocks away. We had a great time playing pool and watching the NFL playoff game there! There's DJ dance party there on weekends. Park Pantry is a block away from the inn, if you're looking for a delicious, reasonably priced diner-style breakfast or lunch (they also have a full bar). They do have some breakfast offerings at the inn, like bagels, yogurt, quiche, etc. It's also a short Uber ride to Shoreline Village, which also has shops and restaurants/bars, as well as the Aquarium of the Pacific. The Long Beach Art Museum is also a short walk from the inn. The beach is a few blocks away. We kept wine in the fridge in their kitchen and at night, when we returned to the inn from our various outings, we would enjoy a glass in the living room. It is extremely welcoming and homey! We were sad to leave and look forward to a return visit.

Right on Broadway; a couple blocks' walk from the Pacific Ocean; within easy reach of several eateries and Long Beach (gay) night life--this bed and breakfast is welcoming and wonderful. Historic craftsman bungalow accommodates several couples easily: each bedroom is private with its own bath. Off street, free parking (SO important in Long Beach!) has easy access to the b&b. The place is close to Long Beach airport and an easy drive to LAX, Long Beach harbor, and San Pedro harbor. The breakfasts each morning are varied and were all delicious. Excellent coffee ;-)

We had a lovely 2 night stay in the Kennebec room prior to our cruise. Breakfast both mornings was wonderful. Being an introvert, B&Bs have never appealed to me but the pictures and write-ups changed my mind. I was not disappointed. The quaint house was out of a movie from my childhood 😊. So much history and uniqueness!! We walked down to the beach and along the trail both days and found a great Italian restaurant to walk to in the evening for dinner. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. We purchased some wine at a store close by and enjoyed a glass of wine 🍷 in The Beachrunner Inn’s living room after dinner. Thank you to Pat for a lovely stay. If we are ever back in Long Beach we will certainly stay here.
