My husband wanted a party for his 50th birthday and what a better place than a brewery!…read more We decided on an 80's theme and looked at different breweries in LB and in OC and decided on this hidden gem. Michelle and Melissa were very accommodating to all of our needs and concerns. All 150 of our guests had an amazing time... they loved the pizza, the casual atmosphere, and the amazing beers. Thank you Five Point Five Brewery for making my husbands 50th a memorable one!

Dark, rich, not overdone. These brewmaster know what they are doing behind the bar... that is for sure. The real surprise though? They've got this back area that is just kind of charming. Good vibe, the kind of spot where you lose track of time without trying too hard. California has no shortage of breweries competing for your attention and your wallet... Five Points earns it. Solid pour, solid spot. Good location for my lax layovers I'll be back.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Mary was our main contact and was incredibly helpful. She met with us twice before the event--once to show us the space and again the week before the party to walk through everything after we had booked. The venue is very spacious and can easily accommodate 150-200 guests. The website provides clear information about pricing, logistics, and floor plans, making the booking process straightforward. The location is fantastic--just a few blocks from the beach--with five reserved parking spaces right in front. It's a beautiful venue and a wonderful place to celebrate any occasion.

Very kind, patient ( I asked a lot of questions ), detailed & prompt. Gail was very helpful with our walkthrough of the center and checklist requirements. One thing to note is to be respectful of rules provided to maintain the space as well as the community, the beautiful center is in the middle of a residential area. So please be mindful of others and hold your guests accountable. Overall an incredible experience 10/10. I will definitely plan for other celebrations of life here.

Belamar review…read more Overall a great hotel and , if I can secure a similar great price, I and my family will happily stay again! The highlights: - the staff were wonderful (all around). The front desk staff were courteous at every step in the process (check in, questions throughout stay, following up on a few small issues that occurred) and at checkout. The valet staff were wonderful. They worked REALLY hard to ensure cars were ready in five minutes (often less than that) from when you requested it (via text) and the restaurant staff was very courtesy and the food was good - Valet was quick (I can't emphasize this enough). I was slightly annoyed that it was valet only (with a rental car I get a wary of others driving) however they were fast, courteous, and kept the car cool for me. Also, I recommend paying for valet when you book as I had the option to buy $25/night parking instead of $45/night parking where booking on the Hilton app. - Use of the hotels bicycles was a major highlight. I rented bikes twice. At the time of my stay (May 2026) there were only four bikes. They are first come first serve so I recommend renting in the morning. They had baskets and came with locks and helmets for a very affordable price. The staff (especially Ozzie) was great at getting them quickly rented out to us and showing us the features (they are one speed bikes so they are basic but perfect for cruising along the beach). - The room was spacious, clean, and had a mini bar fridge in it (with the option for a full fridge and access to a microwave near the business center). I appreciated the ability to tip the staff virtually with credit card in case you don't have cash. - The restaurant was convenient, service was good, and the food was good - Noise level wasn't bad, I had a room facing the main road and wished I would have booked a courtyard room, however the noise was barely noticeable and never a disruption (I come from a city where I am use to ambient noise) The not so great things - For late night gym goers, the gym is limited to 6am-10pm (probably because the gym is beside several guest rooms and they want to be courteous to those rooms). However the gym is well stocked small gym (three treadmills, a peloton, and several different racks of weights and areas for stretching) - The hallways smelt a bit dank when I first arrived (although the rooms themselves smelt very fresh) and I noticed several automated deodorizers in the hallways (likely to help with this) and staff were doing a comprehensive carpet cleaning when I checked out so I would expect this not to be the case in the future. - The indoor/outdoor pool was a bit dated and didn't leave much to be desired, but it's an option.. for those who don't prefer the beach and there were towels available.

This stay the hotel was decked out in holiday decorations that helped make my stay-cation like home! They have a welcoming front desk that had a lovely woman who greeted me for my stay. My room was on the second floor near Second Story the hotel's restaurant, which has great food by the way! Antonio my waiter today told me to be sure to come try breakfast tomorrow, that they've got a new delicious breakfast menu! Also, they have a full bar at the restaurant. I love that the hotel is a small boutique hotel that is a Hilton Tapestry property so you can use your Hilton Honors to book your reservation and earn HH points! The hotel conveniently located on PCH (Sepulveda) and Rosecrans which is just a quick 5 minute to the beach, great shopping and restaurants across the street at Manhattan Village and at The Point! There is a Top Golf just a few minutes away and LAX and 405 Freeway close! And you can even hop on a METRO bus just outside the hotel for a quick ride to Hermosa Beach or to Redondo Beach and Pier! The rooms are spacious. I prefer the garden view rooms and queen beds but this stay I had a residential side view and two beds. The room was quiet and very clean, and I love the crisp corners of the bedsheets tucked neatly. They have amazingly comfy beds and all of the team of employees were friendly (between the house keeping staff, front desk, Antonio at the restaurant and even Sergio (goodness I think that was his name) at the valet! I love when the hotel makes you feel at home and greet you each time you're coming or going. Definitely makes you feel special. Since it's December I didn't get to the pool this times but maybe next time! I'll be back for sure!

My son was VERY reluctant in the beginning, he's a great swimmer but just apprehensive towards new groups and activities but Coach Kyle and the entire staff were so welcoming and supportive from the beginning.

By the time he had to take the swim test he had so many timed practice sessions under his belt and was well on his way for passing and felt very prepared.

Michaela responded to emails promptly, was extremely detail oriented, and supportive/reassuring during the entire process considering we were planning this party from out of state. If she didn't have an answer to a question, she was quick to get an answer or find us a resolution. They were open to allowing us to tour the space as much as needed and met with use on a video call to make things easier to plan. Terry and Alice felt like old friends. We were so lucky to have Terry on-site the day of the event, as he was able to manage all technology/sound system questions/concerns. Both assisted whenever needed and their calm demeanor helped buffer my anxiety! The space is perfect for any event, and the team at Big Door is amazing. We loved the versatility of the space, the indoor/outdoor flow, and the creativity it allowed us to have. Even the bathrooms were clean and well stocked with essentials. Thank you guys so much for making our event a party to remember!
