Hotel Shutters On The Beach Santa Monica, Los Angeles
More photosExpert reviews
“If you ever wondered what an East Hampton mansion would look like if it were conveniently placed on the Santa Monica coastline, this would be it. Shutters is a secretive hideaway, tucked behind the busy streets of Santa Monica.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Los Angeles.
“Shutters on the Beach is right off the bike path in Santa Monica, between the Ferris wheel on the pier and the weightlifters at Venice’s muscle beach.”
Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Los Angeles.
“Favored by celebs wanting a quiet escape, Santa Monica’s glamorous beachfront resort transports you to that cozy beach house of your dreams, with comfy throws and breezy interiors.”
“The interiors designed by Michael Smith, known for his work in the Obama White House, produced large, airy rooms in blues and whites that call to mind an oceanside mansion in the Hamptons.”
Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Los Angeles.
“Hobnob with the occasional celebrity at this seaside American beach house in Santa Monica. Breezy, beach-chic rooms and suites, two highly regarded restaurants and a convivial cocktail lounge are all just steps from the sand. The hotel’s concierge service and amenities are all top notch.”

Lovely high end hotel in Santa Monica
Prime location, superb staff and customer service. Upmarket hotel with great vibe - good place to unwind at the end of a California road trip.
Coast restaurant busy so long wait times for table but all staff encounters excellent. Somewhat overpriced compared to other 5* international hotels but this is California!

If you love the ocean, beautiful accommodations, and outstanding service, Shutters is for you!
The hotel itself is beautiful and the location couldn't be better -- you truly are right at the beach! I had an ocean view room with a balcony and each morning I woke up to the awe-inspiring view of the Pacific Ocean. Cracking open the sliding doors even an inch and I was greeted with the mesmerizing sound of the waves. And as fabulous as the setting is, the staff is equally magnificent! Each person I interacted with went above and beyond to make sure my stay was the best it could be, and it was that and so much more. They made me feel like a VIP! And if I hadn't experienced all of the above, I would go back just for their ice cream sundae and their pineapple coconut smoothie!

overall very nice stay. We were there hosting a wedding for our daughter so engaged all services
exceptional property and service was more than I expected. Room was outfitted with everything we could have wanted.
Only one suggestion, upon being taken to our room, the bellman should have done a better job explaining the use of the safe, the working of the TV and certainly should have fetched us ice. I had inquired as to where the ice machine was and he replied that there were no ice machines on the property, but that it we wanted we could have gone to the bar or the pool to get some. For travelers who had just spent 6 hours in flight to get there he should have picked up on that and just made the effort to get us some ice...that was my only complaint of the service...anticipate the needs fully.
