Michelin Guide
"A beachside-cottage feel undergirds this property set on the sands of Santa Monica Bay. Relax by the pool or have a massage at the spa."

Avoid the rooms in the internally connected annex facing east as these could just as well be a separate entity called, "Shutters on the Parking Lot."
Gayot
"At this on-the-beach retreat, travelers appreciate the respite from L.A.'s high octane atmosphere."
BlackBook
"Plush pied-a-terre and oversized hot tubs for moneyed beach lovers. High-end cottage suites offer feast of Pacific views."

DK Eyewitness
"The chic W is full of surprises, such as the “waterfall” entrance steps and the table games in the lobby."
BlackBook
"This W perfect for chic, but practical guests who actually get to bed before 1:30am. W rooms, sleek, not so spacious."
