Shutters on the Beach

With a stunning location right on Santa Monica Beach, this is one of the resort’s top hotels with beautiful views, decadent facilities, a top-class spa and gourmet restaurant.

Southern California meets Cape Cod at Shutters on the Beach, a chic coastal property of sophisticated designs, timeless elegance and exclusive ambience.

Spacious rooms have a residential feel with hardwood floors, handcrafted furniture, area rugs, built-in entertainment centres, balconies, and most bathrooms include a hot tub. The best suites have ocean views, fireplaces and lounge areas.

Step directly out onto the beach, relax in the spa, work out in the fitness centre, then enjoy wine-tastings, live sunset music and craft cocktails. The resort has a gourmet restaurant Pico, serving a fusion of Californian and international cuisine, accompanied by lovely ocean views.

Our expert's opinion

“Nothing says classic California cool quite like Shutters on the Beach. We love its effortless blend of seaside charm and upscale comfort, with light-filled rooms, ocean views and a relaxed, beach-house feel—right on the sands of Santa Monica.”
