Reviews for Shutters on the Beach
Outstanding dinner, service and experience at One Pico restaurant
On August 31, 2025 I arranged a birthday party for my wife and 16 guests at Shutters, One Pico Restaurant. This is a beautiful setting with a view of the adjacent beach, ocean and setting sun. All guests commented that the pre-dinner hors ‘d’oeuves, appetizers, entrees and desserts, plus the birthday cake specially made by the chef, were all outstanding and delicious. The service was also first rate and efficient, with a special mention for Jonathan. The evening event had been pre-planned with the help of Mary Thompson, who was extremely helpful, easy to work with and very efficient. As a result, the evening was an outstanding success. We will certainly be back.

Doesn’t get better than this
A luxury hotel with a super chilled vibe. I can only describe Shutters as feeling as if you are staying in a rich friends beach house. Lovely staff, great food and beverage service. Luxury rooms, comfy beds. The location is just sensational. A truly special place. Highly recommend.

5 star on the beach
Fabulous hotel - I read some of the less positive reviews but can safely say this place knows how to look after guests. Wonderful 5 days, great staff, perfect location on the beach and 2 fab restaurants.

You Get What You Pay For
Top flight experience, you get what you pay for. Best location in Santa Monica with direct beach access. Staff outstanding and considerate, especially all of the housekeeping folks. Only one ding: the hot tub in the pool area should be kid-free. Kids don’t need to be in a hot tub.

Simply The Best
Just completed a Road Trip for my 60th . Travelling down the Pacific Highway over 3 weeks from SanFrancisco to San Diego then Across to Vegas Via Palm Springs. We stayed in 8 Hotels all bar 1 very Good but Shutters stood out from the crowd !! The staff were all fantastic, service great , housekeeping superb. We could compare all as we went and Shutters shone high and above the rest . Little touches and quality above the rest . Thank you for a great stay Will definitely return.

Our stay at Shutters was outstanding. Every one was gracious and helpful, from Carol at the front desk, to Luis and Mark at the welcome from our visit to our exit. All the food and service was excellent. The people all had one objective and it was to make out visit the best it could be! THANKS, Luxury Link is a very special place to make our reservations.

We loved this hotel and the over all experience. The staff was very accommodating and service oriented, the restaurant was excellent, and the room was very comfortable and wonderfully decorated. To top it off, you have the ocean and the Santa Monica Pier in your back yard! Would love to return!
