Kissed by the fresh air that sweeps off the Pacific coast, with a vibrant atmosphere where modern beachside glamour meets casual urban chic, Huntley Santa Monica Beach invites you to experience the best of Santa Monica. Overlooking a world-renowned stretch of golden beach, this fabulous boutique hotel welcomes you with classic elegance, contemporary sophistication, and the relaxed and playful ambiance that only Southern California can provide. Spacious rooms are dramatic and inviting, with sleek lines, deep chocolate and pale cream palates, and dark wood accents adding a decidedly designer touch. Natural sunlight filters through large picture windows, while the panoramic views of ocean, cityscape and mountains will take your breathe away. Huntley Santa Monica Beach is truly as amazing indoors as it is under the sunny California skies.

It was a truly heartwarming experience staying at the Huntley Santa Monica. The front desk team was very professional and detail‑oriented. When I checked into my room, the view was incredible and the room itself was beautiful—perfect for both business and leisure. I could tell the housekeeping team takes excellent care of the rooms. The Penthouse restaurant offered creative and delicious food. The renovated rooms feel stylish and thoughtfully designed, with just the right amount of detail. Last but not least, the security manager was incredible. I misplaced something, and he personally assisted me while checking lost and found. I’m very grateful for his help. Thank you very much for such a wonderful stay.

This is my second time staying at the Huntley. And the second time with no notes. I stay here when I travel solo to see my daughter and love that it is a little smaller and cozy with a little more feminine flair than most hotels. The food and staff…awesome and check in/out is seamless. This is now my go-to hotel. Waymo is my other favorite thing. My daughter attends USC and I can take a Waymo to her apartment just off campus. The view from the restaurant is amazing. I attached a photo

Our stay at Huntley was the perfect getaway. The views were absolutely beautiful, and the food and service were truly amazing. Everything about the experience felt relaxing and well taken care of. We definitely want to come back, stay longer, and bring others with us to enjoy it too. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

I come to Santa Monica often to visit my family and I ALWAYS use Text Us Transportation for all my car service needs. He’s affiliated with the Huntley Hotel. Chuck, the owner, takes me to and from the airport and any other transportation needs I have while in the Santa Monica area. He’s reliable, professional, kind, beautiful clean and spacious car, and always goes out of his way to provide me and my family superior service. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs a car service while in the Los Angeles area, he’s top notch!!!

The Committee was impressed with the hotel, the meeting space, and the dinner. The hotel is beautiful and easy to get to (and smelled amazing--I bought their candle). The staff was great and accommodated my ridiculously early check-in. The meeting was the most seamless tech-wise that I've encountered. Within 5 minutes of getting into the room I was set up, and the projector worked beautifully. The meeting staff were professional, responsive, and stealthy with their meal setups and takedowns. In all, superb. We also held a small group dinner afterwards in the Penthouse restaurant. A very impressive location with the views of the ocean and city. Excellent food and service. Love that it was in the hotel but felt like a separate experience. The alcove they gave us was comfortable and offered a sense of privacy. It was a gorgeous meal. Working with the hotel sales and service staff is always exceptional. Consistently providing friendly, quick, and complete replies, and they really partnered with me to ensure we planned for everything in advance of arrival, too. Their efforts made it the most seamless meeting I've had yet, so thank you, as always, for helping me to create a beautiful event! Please also pass along my / our gratitude to your staff in all departments. They all deserve to be acknowledged for their efforts, too, since we all know they are the ones that truly make the magic happen when it comes right down to it. 😊 Thank you all for the stellar experience and we'll be back!
