I just returned from Santa Monica with my 2 grandsons. I usually stay at Shutters on the Beach, but their sister property the Casa del Mar had a discounted rate so I thought I would give it a try. The staff was extremely friendly to my grandsons age 3 and 5. Rooms were clean and very comfortable. Pool area is... more

We loved the bar by the beach-the rooms were perfect-well stocked and clean and the staff was friendly and always asked if there was anything we needed. They turned themselves inside out looking for my (expensive) prescription dark glasses. I was very grateful when they were located. I can't wait to get back.. more

This is a beautiful hotel with very nice rooms and is worth every penny until you get hit with the unprofessional, rude service. Human Resources needs to take a closer look at who they hirer and how they are trained and coached. more

We stayed only one night but I wished we could stay more. The room was large, quiet, and beautifully decorated. The staff was professional and friendly. The lobby was cozy and inviting. The lobby bar invites you to sit and people watch as people stroll by on the beach. A great pick! more

First, the service was superb - and we are service sticklers. This includes friendly car valets and bellman who remembered us from the first moment we arrived, front desk who couldn't be more eager to help, and cocktail waitress who acted like it was her job to pamper us. As everyone knows, it's hard enough to get decent service from... more

Casa del Mar is a charming hotel; as its sister hotel Shutters (next door), it has really a nice charming atmosphere. The decor of the Hotel, the room, everything in this location contribute to create a special personality that make Casa del Mar a place more unique then rare. I staied there for few night as a stop over on... more

We came to enjoy ourselves. No one told us that taking pictures were strictly forbidden... until the stupid Movie production showed up. Unfortunately, nobody warned us that they would be filming, whatsoever. I guess they thought everyone is movie-star struck! Well, they should have not ass-u-me'd, but they did. After spending hundreds(thousands) of dollars, we were treated like second class... more

We spent the weekend and loved the building, aesthetic, atmosphere, and location. and, it was Emmy weekend so lots of "sightings"...Our room (no view) was small but perfectly appointed. However, when we came in one evening the radio was BLASTING rock music and we couldn't figure out how to turn it off.... It's also a CLOCK radio that is so... more

My husband and I retreated to Hotel Casa Del Mar this weekend for only one night, and were truly enchanted by the hotel. The location is fantastic, it is a elegant 1920's building right on a good part of the beach. The rooms were plush, unique and thoughtfully appointed. The restaurant was gorgeous and tastefully casual. The staff was very... more
