Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Shutters On The Beach from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Shutters On The Beach enjoys a fantastic location right on the beach, near the pier, making it easy to step onto the sand. The hotel is often described as beautifully decorated, reminiscent of a beach villa, and provides luxurious Diptyque toiletries. Many guests relished the ocean views from their balconies. While some found that event setups near the pool could be disruptive, the ability to borrow bicycles for exploring the beaches further south and north particularly stood out as a great perk.

great location helpful staff small room street noise
The location IS great. The staff were very helpful and always available, they wanted to assist us in any way possible.
The room was a little small, even though i booked a beautiful king room. The noise from the street at night made sleep a little difficult, i could hear everything.

beachfront bliss!

perfect balcony special touch friendly staff
I loved that my pacific view suite had this perfect balcony overlooking the ocean. the complimentary bubbly and birthday cake they sent up were such a special touch. the staff was friendly and helpful. They thought of every detail!
the constant clattering and banging from setting up events near the pool was bothersome. i wish i had known about the limited use of the pool area beforehand.
